What kindof cards are you dealing here?

Lion looks a little forlorn about his hand.
For a little while now, after watching Veggie Tales "Jonah" she has been playing cards, and pretty much just being interested in anything cardlike. She loves my old business cards and whenever we go to Costco, guess who gets to be the cardholder? 

What do you mean "Like father..."

I have no idea where she might have picked up the habit of photography :) 

Washington State Parks

The state parks are just totally beautiful, and they are everywhere. This one is Kitsap Memorial State Park, about 8 minutes from our place, and has it all. There are hiking trails like this one, bike trails, ocean frontage with alot of beach (covered in shells) and even these really cute little cabins (picture coming after our next trip there).

There is, of course, a play are for the kids, and Alex had a greeeeeaaaat time sliding down the big girls slide. Biggest slide she has been on to date. And lots of running around space.

There is even a very cool, large, log structure there that looks as if it has been around for 100 years.
