our adventure to mount baker

We celebrated Labor Day with a fun trip to Mt. Baker. It was an absolutely beautiful day!

How cute are these three cousins? :)
















Mighty Max got to practice walking on uneven surfaces...that was certainly a challenge!

















Time out for a lil' cuddle session in the meadow!






















How beautiful is this view? I love that we live so close to such amazing beauty!

(Yes and the two boys aren't bad looking either...I love when Max snuggles up on his shoulder.)

























After I challenged Bill to run up a few cliffs with me, I think he was more than ready to nap with Maxwell. :) They went on ahead to the car but then decided to stop for some quiet time in another meadow. You can imagine how sweet it was to come along and find this...

















On the way back to Bellingham, we stopped at a local pizza joint. And what do you know...look who joined us at the table??? The "o" block of course...seriously this lil' thing travels EVERYWHERE with us.
















Before getting back in the car, Max and Bill played a quick game of "kick the block." Max thought it was pretty funny...check it out! His giggles are the best! :)

Got teary eyed seeing Bill and Max taking a cat nap. So incredibly sweet. The photos of Baker and your family are equally beautiful.

Just a boy, Baker, Bill, and beer (from the northfork shrine)....

So happy to see you so happy! Mt. Baker looks like a beautiful place. And seriously, could Max get any cuter!

Good luck with the start of school, for both of you!! We'll be thinking about you!

Looks like a wonderful Labor Day weekend. I love walking in the great outdoors. I can not wait for Eva to get alittle more independant so we can do things like that without the wheelcair.
Bill is a wonderful man I am happy so see you so happy.
Hugs,
Crystal and Eva

Wow, I cannot believe how big Max looks in that picture of him and Bill walking ahead of you! He looks so grown up! When did he stop being a baby?

What a beautiful day you had! Looks like a fun memory day! Looked for you on Fri at school, but you were coming in much later. I'm sure I'll see you soon though! Hope your Mon goes well!
