Fall

Summer time

 Luke's birthday is July 1st so we had some fireworks for the kids to play with. We also had my cousin Jessica and her family out as well has Alan's brother Chris with his family. My mom put us up in  a cabin near by in Sequim Bay and it worked out better to have the party there.

 Uncle Jordan fit 9 marshmallows in his mouth! Not sure if I'm impressed or disturbed.

Here's the invitation for the party. He wanted a mad scientist theme.

 One of the experiments: a gas reaction that fills the balloon.

Another experiment: elephant toothpaste. The kids were super into the activities and I could have done a few more.

Uncle Chris, Aunt Erin, and baby Chadwick come for a lovely visit. Here they are outside Dry soda's tasting room.
