For Labor day weekend, we headed to Bellingham and Orcas to relax after all of my travels and to spend some family time. We started out with a wedding and ended on the island. My mom has a friend that has sheep, so she asked if we could come over and see them. Caden loved to feed the sheep. He thought that was pretty cool!


For an added bit of excitement, my parent's neighbor's cows got loose and we looked out the window, to see 3 cows in their driveway. They headed over to another neighbors, but it was pretty wild when they started running. The owner just said "I guess I should have fed them more yesterday"

This is Caden with his cousins. As you can see, Annie is learning to love books as much as Charlie.

We also had a giant nest under our deck - Pretty frightening!

My friend Jessica got married, so we got to go to the wedding which was fun. She is beautiful!

Caden can give a thumbs up, and here it is!

Another highlight for us was the fair. We went to the fair 2 times, and Caden really liked the rides. This is him on the bouncing cars. He really liked the motorcycles the best, but I didn't get a picture of that. The funny thing is that was Justin's favorite ride when he was little too.

This last picture is to show how daring this guy is. He can climb the rock wall at our church playground with no help. I was pretty proud of him for this, and then worried what else he might climb at our house. 2 1/2 years old - a little daredevil!
