We got home yesterday from a full week on Lummi Island for vacation. Awe relaxation!! When we got their on Sunday we made a list of all the things we all wanted to do while we were there so we made sure and not miss anything. It looks like we accomplished our goals and even surpassed them!
Dad had just gotten home Saturday after being away for 3 months doing a training in Texas so he was ready for some vacation time too!
Caymus found our old swards and shields so he and I had a little duel! It was pretty fun and brought back some old childhood memories!

| Sward fighting! |
 |
| Super C! Ready to fight! |
Off to the beach we go! Caymus brought along his cape for the trip. I made him (knitted) this cape for his 3rd birthday. It took me months...and he refused to wear it for years! I tried not to show my heart break....So I was VERY happy to see him sporting it most of the week!

| Super C! |

In the first few days of our trip we took gater rides around the island, shot bebe guns, went shopping at Value Village, lots of beach coming, kayaking with the seals, playing in the "not so hot" tub, fire works, and soaking up the sun!
 |
| These 2 love the tub! They play in there for hours! |
 |
| And these 2 are busy enjoying the nice weather, birds, and ipads! |
Thursday was Bob's birthday....so we filled it full! After Glass collection in the morning, a huge feast for breakfast, he got his gift and then we headed out for the day. We went up to Mt Baker for lunch and then took our time coming back down enjoying the beautiful views. Then it was over to my aunt and uncles for a family birthday party...there are 5 birthdays and an anniversary all in July. It was great to see my HUGE family and celebrate!

| The kids got him some Red Sox slippers! SWEET!! |
