The River!

The chokecherries and wild cranberries were ripe... What a lovely destination - Finn's (and our) favorite! We packed a picnic lunch and enjoyed the entire morning out there together.

Mr. Greg!

I came into Finn's room hearing this; we hadn't mentioned Greg's name for weeks - but Finn had just found his long lost blue Volvo XC wagon and this is what he was saying...

Snacktime for Everyone!

Water Baby

Stay-cation.

Who needs to GO camping when it's all in our own backyard?

All right, there are no mountains in the background; we will go away for that :)

A Favorite Book

Not the most impressive reading from our first son, but a sweet clip caught on video:

The words Finn says (in order), are:
"Archduke"
"Howling with fright"
"orders"
"head"
"eyes"
"blinded"

"Biggest Truck in the Wooorl(d)!"

Tidal Pursuit

Soaked and Happy

The Beautiful Beach

Undaunted, our Hero braves the beach in the rain!

(Momma stayed in the hotel and had a nap :)

Bull Whip!

Finn's Beach Initiation

Whoops! But as you will see from the next videos of him in the water, it didn't instill lasting fear!

Blackberries at the Beach

"Free Swingset Oustide!"
