Whidbey Island

Here are a few pictures from our day trip to Whidbey Island!
The kids thought the ferry ride was pretty cool - although it is a short ride, that was probably better to keep their interest going. We didn't really know where we were headed so we started driving and ended up at Fort Casey which turned out to be a lot of fun. You can sort of see in this picture below, the area you can walk through and explore. Unfortunately they were doing construction on the area that has the "big guns" as Griff says. We will have to go back when they are done. Then we went down to the beach and the last picture here is Emma holding a tiny dead crab. Griff insisted on putting it back in the water when we were done with it! Then our camera died - of course - so we did not take any pictures in Langley. There is not a whole lot to see there - but they had fun eating ice cream! All in all it was a very fun day!

It's been so long!

I know it has been so long, but here are some new pictures.
As you can see Emma is doing really good and was so happy to get
in her bikini last week when the sun was out!
Our days are usually busy going to the library or museum or just playing around the house. They are at an age now they can entertain each other longer and I can get more things done, so that is nice! Griff has been such a sweetheart with Em and I think he really likes having a sister - finally!

Emily is doing well!

Just want everyone to know Em is home and doing really well.
We had quite a scare with her low blood cell count,
but she had the transfusion and her body
has kicked in and is right back where she should be!
We will be keeping an eye on it.
THANK YOU everyone for your support - you have all been amazing!
