Father's Day 2011

For Father's Day this year, we spent the weekend in Port Angeles. Nathan has been wanting to check out the tide pools at Salt Creek. The day was overcast & a bit chilly, but that never slows kids down.



Adana fell on the slippery barnacles & sliced her hand. It was a pretty deep gash. One of the things I love about this girl, though, is how quickly she bounces back. A short cry, wrap up the hand in a rag, and she was off again.

This was a cool tunnel that would normally be completely underwater.

Nathan & the kids climbed to the top of this "island." When the tide is in, it's an island. But at these extreme low tides, you can hike out to it.

A true Pacific Northwest native. Splashing barefoot in the frigid water - and loving it!

I love these kind sibling moments.

Um, yeah. Whose wacky kids are those?

After the beach, we had to stop at Granny's Cafe for a burger & fries. Torah LOVES fries!

Then back to the lake house for a swim. What the . . .?! Again, whose psychotic kids are those?!

Micah after his cannonball.

Looks like fun, eh? :-)

I loved that you stopped to take a moment to snap the picture of Adana crying. Reminds me of Strawberry Hill. :)
