Crazy Summer

Summer has been pretty filled with fun...so much so that we are actually getting tired of it and want a break to kick back and take it easy. Last week we had a party on Friday, Saturday and Sunday night. They were pretty laid back going away and graduation parties, but it hasn't allowed us much time at home.

This week on thursday we went to the Seattle street of dreams. We took our camera to take pictures of things we would like to do in our house. There were six multi-million dollar homes that were way over the top, but it was fun to see how they did everything. One house had a book case that would move and give you access to a hidden stairwell. Down the stairs was a little TV/game room. Now, that is something that I would like to have!

On Friday we went to the Nickel Creek concert. That was amazing. They are Carson's favorite band. As usual, the summer weather was perfect. We ate dinner on the grass while the initial band played then enjoyed the concert on our blanket.

Saturday we went with the entire family this time for a ride on a 50 foot yatch out into the Sound. It was a lot of fun to be out on the big water and see all the sea creatures on the beaches. Trey's favorite part was all the clams squirting out water as the tide descended. We took off from there and dropped the kids off so that we could go to the Seahawks game. Marisa has never been before so it was fun to see all the excitement of an NFL game in a fairly new stadium.

We had some friends over on Sunday for icecream. It was fun to bounce all of our future home decorating ideas off of them.
