Fun In The Sun...Finally!

Well, this summer is proving to be a typical Seattle summer so far! Rain, clouds, peek-a-boos of sun, a high of 65...if we are lucky! Well, not today, folks! Today was around 70 degrees and just perfect! Caden and I headed over to our friends house in Suquamish for a day at the beach! It was such a great time, and perfect prfactice for our trip to Maui in a few days!

Caden seemed to love the sand, after he got used to it sticking to everything! He loved digging, the buckets and especially sharing snacks with Benton! We did venture down to the water-Caden has made it very clear that he does NOT love cold water! He kept a safe distance but when he bent over to pick up some rocks, he took a total nose dive right into the wet sand. When he popped back up, screaming,  he had a face full of sand and shell pieces! It was pretty funny, but he didn't find the humor in it! I wiped him up and kept on playing! In fact, he loved playing so much that we came home and took out our water table and kept on playing! What a fun sunny day! Can't wait till the next one!

My friend Maria and her son Benton-2 weeks younger than Caden!

Such a sweet face...eyeing the rolling surf

After the nose dive, this was our second attempt at playing near the water

They both enjoyed a little sand in the mouth
