Park Day

I have to say, that the weather hasn't been so good since we've been in the good ol' Pacific Northwest. It is expected that the summer weather is not very consistent this time of year, but it has been REALLY cold and windy and rainy and miserable since we've been here. I can't complain too much because we have more than our fair share of sunshine in Arizona but we were hoping to be able to enjoy all the fun outdoor activities that we can do here that are near impossible in the Arizona heat.

Yesterday we got a great break from the "bad" weather. No wind, no rain, and the clouds broke in the afternoon and we got a good dose of sunshine. You saw yesterday that we went swimming and found a frog. We also did a little rowing in the boat and in the afternoon I took the kids to the park. We had lots of fun playing on the wood play structure and running around on the grass around big, beautiful trees (things we don't see much of in Arizona).

Here's some pictures of our fun, beautiful, Northwest afternoon at the park.

You should have gotten a picture of the fish you guys caught while in the row boat.
