Mt. Rainier - Big Creek Camping

We camped near Mt. Rainier this weekend and had a great time.  We stayed in a small campground outside the Park called Big Creek.  On Saturday we hiked up Pinnacle Peak trail and had the best views of Rainier I have ever seen.  The kids are such great hikers; Andre never wants to stop and Bri just enjoys the ride in the backpack.  Here are some pics from the weekend. 

Brianna's Birthday

Brianna turned 2 on July 9th.  It is amazing how fast the time has gone.  She is such a big girl with lots of talking, jumping, running, and trying to keep up with Andre. Gran and Cole were here and we had some friends over to celebrate, enjoy this lovely Seattle summer, and eat some cake.  Here are some pics. 

 

Lake Michigan with the Gang

Sorry for the late post.  We traveled to Michigan last month to spend a week with the Robertson's, Stone's, and Houser's.  We stayed in a large house a block from the Lake.  With 8 adults and 8 kids it was very busy but very fun!  The kids ran around and played and played.  Here are a couple pics.

Andre graduated from preschool in early June.  Grandma Deb and Grandpa Mark were here for the event and we had a great time.
