I'm Back...

I know Summer is long gone, but then I had the excuse that fall started, and I got really busy:)

So I thought I would blog about a day trip we took about two weeks ago.

Dad had the day off on a Thursday a couple weeks ago, and they told us early on in the morning, that we were going on a mystery day trip, and to wear walking shoes, and to bring warm coats.

So we get into the car, and head down Chuckanut Drive, which is especially beautiful this time of year due to the beautiful red, orange and yellow trees all along the road.

And then mom and dad took us all to Larrabee State Park , where we had never been before.

We went down to the water first, and found lots of star fish, and climbed on the rocks, and just had fun exploring. You could get right down in the water, and there were star fish all over the place!
Purple ones, pinkish ones, orange ones and red ones...

There were some huge rock faces you could climb up, and the view got even better!

Mom and dad are so sweet:)

When we started to walk back up to the main park area we heard a train whistle, and dad told us to run up to the bridge we had walked under on the main trail, because the train would go right over our heads on the bridge! And sure enough, we got to the bridge and all stood underneath it and listened to the very loud train go right over our headsCAUTION: ADULTS ON THE PLAYGROUND!

While we were waiting for a couple people in the restroom, Brad and Ali started playing in the play ground, and then (I'm not sure how it happened..) but soon we were all being silly and playing on the playground, even mom and dad!

This is a game where you stand on a bar that you rock back and forth, and try to shake the other people off...

I fell off..:)

The park has an outdoor stage where they sometimes hold concerts and things

We had a WONDERFUL time there, and I can't wait until we can go again sometime.

Happy Fall Everyone!
