4 day weekend!

Daniel and I took off work Thursday and Friday June 23-24. We camped at the base of Hurricane Ridge on Wednesday night. It was the first time camping with Ridge and the first time we'd camped together since the summer before Ridge was born so we were excited to go. Ridge had a lot of fun being outside and staying up late but he didn't sleep so well or should I say Daniel and I didn't sleep so well. Then Ridge woke up at 5:30 so we had breakfast, packed up camp and drove up to Hurricane Ridge to get an early start on hiking...




However,, up at Hurricane Ridge its was 35 degrees and cloudy. We walked around for about 20 minutes then decided it was way too cold!!









So instead we drove near Sequim and went to the Dungeness Spit and it was sunny and way warmer!! We had a great time playing in the sand and basking in the sun. I am so glad we didn't try to stick it out in the snow..















That evening we got stuff put away and the house cleaned then my mom came to visit because Friday we were going shopping! Daniel wasn't up for a full shopping day so he went hiking up Mt Ellinor with his friend Tim.



Ridge was well behaved considering he didn't get much of a nap, but about 5pm he was done. We dropped him off at home with Daniel and went back for more shopping, I wish stores were open later then 9pm.. :)



There is still tons of snow for this time of year so that puts a restriction on some high altitude hikes but Daniel managed to embrace it and have a fun day.

Misc Cell phone pictures..

My boy is so cute!


Naked baby on the loose!!


This is not a very good pictures and Ridge has his eyes closed but I was amazed that he climbed all the way UP the slide..


Already such a difference..

Its amazing how much kids change in such short time. This first picture was taken last fall and Jamie had to hold Ridge in the Jeep while Terek drove slow so he wouldn't fall out..



Now Ridge and Terek cruse all over as fast as the little Jeep can go. They're cute little buddies. (It's funny, Ridge holds on to the little CB radio speaker the whole time everytime.)

Happy Birthday!

Daniel turned 32 on 6/16/11


This picture was from when he turned 30 but its my favorite, and I haven't taken any recent pictures of my old husband since he's been the big 32.

Change of plans



We were suppose to go camping this weekend up at Lake Whynochee and meet up with some friends. But as you can see we didn't quite make it. Luckily we had a rig full of camping gear just in case we were stranded for a long time, and I had cell service. I called Daniel's dad who has two tow truck driver friends and their phone numbers memorized. The first one I called happened to have just finished a tow job and was able to pick us up before going to the next job. We only had to wait about a half hour and we all got to squeeze in the front seat which Ridge thought was fun. We arrived home safe and now Daniel gets the opportunity to be a mechanic..

"No" to Baths

For almost a week now Ridge has cried every time I've tried to give him a bath and not just being stubborn he seems scared. I don't know whats wrong or what caused it, he usually loves bath time. Finally I had to give him a bath in the sink since he was getting a little stinky and he did ok so I'm hoping it's just a phase. But he's still a cutie..

Fun in the sun

We got Ridge's little Ducky tub/pool out last weekend. He loved dragging it around the house and sitting in it but I think he was really excited when I put water in it.








Hiking on a nice hot day.

We decided to take advantage of the nice weather and go hiking. We hiked up the WagonWheel trail but didn't go to the lake because there was still a lot of snow. Ridge had fun hanging out in the pack, but what he really loves is throwing rocks into the river. We're excited for more warm days.















Ridge is a good little hiker.

"LOTS" of showers brings spring flowers.

I think spring has finally come, but now the question is will we ever get summer!??



I didn't even tell him to smell the flowers, he did it all on his own.
