Canada
We interrupt this family(kid update) blog for a fun girls' trip to Victoria, British Columbia! Auntie Allison and mommy went on a long weekend to Canada while us boys (and the pups) stayed home with daddy. Everyone had a blast.
Mommy diary:
After arriving via the Clipper Vacations ferry from Seattle we took a rickshaw to our AirBnB (which was awesome!). We had tea at The Fairmont Empress Hotel, then went down to the Fisherman's Wharf to check out an array of eclectic house boats and floating restaurants. So cool! We took the cutest little water taxi back to the downtown area for dinner.
The next day we rented bikes (and helmets) and took a ride through downtown and then along a quiet road up the coast and to Craigdarroch Castle. We enjoyed views of the water, mountains, boats, and also dogs playing with driftwood on the rocky beaches! We even met a vizsla names Luka.
That night we headed out to Butchart Gardens via shuttle for beautiful views, a picnic dinner, and fireworks.
What a fun trip! We loved Victoria. The charm of all the hanging baskets downtown and fun shops and activities, yummy food, amazing views and nice people. We will definitely go back sometime and take the family (and on a sea plane tour)!

Garbage day
When it's garbage day we spend most of the day playing out front, so the boys can see them and wave to the drivers.
Fall Ball
Ardan's first tball game was last weekend. Daddy captured it, while I took Uncle Evan, Aunt Camille, and Abigail to the airport. He next game is tonight!

Fun with Family!
We have had a blast with Uncle Evan, Aunt Camille and Abigail this week! We explored Seattle, Olympia, and went to Great Wolf Lodge!
Any dog pile is a good dog pile in our house.
Great Wolf Lodge!
It took Nolan a good 4 hours to warm up to playing in all the water.
Arcade fun at Great Wolf.
Had fun exploring Seattle. We went to the Chihuly Glass Garden, Space Needle (and had lunch at the top), Pikes Place Market, and the notorious "gum wall".
Had lots of fun playing at our Children's Museum.
