Water, Water and More Water

Sunday, 2-14-10

We got to church and were met with this huge puddle.....or small lake. :-)

I successfully kept the kids out of it on the way into church. It was very difficult. Zach was standing on the edge and had a very mischievous look on his face with a grin that said, "I'm going to jump." BUT on the way out I turned around and here was my son wading through it. He just couldn't stand it any more. A puddle this big was meant to be played in! :-)

Oh well....I had already planned for us to go to the beach and I had extra clothes and shoes, so he just started the water fun a little early. LOL!

So we headed out to find a beach to go beach combing and to get some energy out. We ended up at Dash Point State Park. I was prepared for rain, but it was a nice afternoon.

We found several crabs and sand dollars and lots of broken shells

Even some walking sticks. :-)

There were LOTS of great photo opps!

We had a really fun afternoon exploring!

 

We had no rain until I was literally opening the door to get into the car. What a blessing!!

Then in true Seattle style, it poured all the way home.

Now we are bundled up at home with the fire on watching a movie.

We are so blessed to live in the Northwest with all this beautiful green and lush nature around us!

The rain is worth it. :-)

(for a time....)
