Surprise

I received these beautiful roses and lilies one day out of the blue with a card that thanked me for my generosity!?!  I have no idea what I did, or to this day, who sent them to me.  But it sure was nice!  They were gorgeous!

Coupeville field trip

 Jordan had to go on a field trip for his history class.  We thought it would be fun to go to the historical museum in Coupeville and learn a little history.  Jordan wasn't real thrilled about it, but the rest of my family was excited.  We all had a field trip to town.

 Cool artifacts

 A tale about the mermaid at Deception Pass.

 The view can't be beat!

 I remember as a kid just staring and studying this huge mural in the courthouse when we would go visit dad at work..  It now resides in the museum.

Swimmin at Admirals Cove

  We spent many many summers here at this pool, which was closed due to fighting within the Admirals Cove HOA, but was opened this year. 

Aim birthday!

 Huge spread!

 Someone didn't like her boys being so high in the tree, and waiting (un)patiently for him to come down.

First day of his Junior year

 Jordan, heading off to school!

 I made the traditional big huge chocolate chip cookie when I got home from work.

Beautiful scenery

 Herd of elk

And then we decided, for time's sake, to cut across to I-5 for the rest of the way.  Unfortunate that we didn't have time to enjoy the rest of the drive.
