Family Time

As summer comes to an end, we are doing our best to spend quality family time together and enjoy the last of the sunny weather. We spent Labor Day weekend on Vashon enjoying the beach, boat rides, crabbing, playing with cousins and drinking wine on our new deck (adults only of course).

This weekend we took a trip to Remlinger Farms in Carnation. I was skeptical because Kallie can get overwhelmed when there are lots of people but my fears were put to rest the moment we walked in. She loved looking at the animals (lamas, sheep, emus and turkeys) and as usual she was all talk about the ponies but she made it very clear she was NOT going to sit on a pony (maybe next year – HA). To my surprise her favorite part of the farm was riding all of the rides. She kept saying “one more time mommy” every time the ride would stop and was not happy that we had to wait in line to go again. Lucky for us the lines were really short because Kallie is not a fan of waiting (yelling Kallie's turn), just like her daddy.

Since both Eric and I work full time being able to spend quality family time on the weekends is our priority. It is amazing to see how family time can make any day a better day, I truly feel blessed to have such a wonderful family.
