The In -Laws






In the beginning of August Sam's parents flew up for a week and we had alot of fun. I am so glad they were able to come and see where we live and we were able to show them some of the scenery around here. We went to the Crab Pot on the water in downtown Seattle ( my favorite).
We took a trip to Hurricane Ridge it's a 3 hour drive into the Olympic mountains on top of the world. It was so beautiful and the deer in the parking lot were so used to people one walked right up to Brooke. We took them to Point no Point and sat on the beach and watched the sail boats sail by and the tug boats hauling loads of who knows what slowly make there way across the water. We saw a spider crab and Brooke dug a whole up to her waist while Sam, Jack and Emily played soccer. Sam's dad helped he put up his shed which is a major task. They worked hard one day clearing out trees, brush, bushes, and winding roots covering the ground just so they could place the frame that the shed would sit on. Albert is 73 and works like a horse!! Sam said seeing his dad work made him feel like a softy and he had to keep up with his dad. Ladawn, Jack and I stayed home one night and watched girly movies while Sam took the girls and his dad to a Mariners game, they had a great time. The girls ranted and raved, not about the game, but about the big snow cones. We truly enjoyed having them here and cannot wait until they can come back.
