Scenic Drive thru Tulip Festival









On Saturday April 14th, we drove up north through Skagit County to see the colorful fields of tulips. Avery enjoyed the sites and yelling out MOO when we'd pass cows. She saw horses too. We drove to Sedro Woolley to visit and have dinner with Bernie and Wendi.
The fields were beautiful and we enjoyed our day!!

Happy Easter!








We arrived at the Princes at around 8 pm. We decorated hard boiled eggs and Avery almost came close to sipping the colored dye. We all visited for a while and then turned in for the evening. Avery was up at 6:30ish and wanted to see "Mickey" She wondered around looking for the dog and found Grandma Wendi sleeping. We all took turns watching Avery and getting extra sleep. Joe and I prepared a delicious breakfast and Avery was enjoying all her Easter baskets. I put her down for a nap so we could hide eggs for a hunt and she needed one. She woke up grumpy so I patiently waited to change her into her pretty dress and get started with the Easter Egg Hunt. She had a good time running and finding eggs. It was a lovely afternoon, but a bit windy. We had a wonderful dinner and headed home at about 6:30pm. There was some traffic and arrived at home at about 8:30pm. We had a wonderful weekend...Full of Family Time!!

Happy Easter Saturday!!


We started the weekend driving up to Bellingham. We took a scenic route through Stanwood and tried to avoid the freeway traffic. We arrived at the DeRemers home about noon. My brother Jon drove my parents up north and arrived shortly after we did. We exchanged some Easter gifts and started getting into the candy. We made lunch and appetizers and made the dessert for the evening meal. We had some time on our hands, so we decided to drive up to Lake Padden and play at the park. Park is a dangerous word to say around Avery. She repeats and repeats until we are at the park. She had a rough time though, her top back molars at pushing there way through her gums, which means fussiness and a slight fever. My niece Danielle loved the park. Her mommy put her on the swings and she loved it. Joe and I took Avery for a drive so she could get a good nap. We headed for the border and turned back for Bellingham. Avery was is a little better after the nap, but still had a few moments. We had a lovely dinner and dessert with my folks, brother, sister, brother-in-law and niece. We headed to Sedro Woolley at around 7:30pm.
