The REAL Birthday...
Apparently Addison keeps score on his birthdays...a fact I never knew until this year...he informed us all the last year his birthday scored 500 points after going to scout day camp, getting froyo with mom, going to Wendy's for dinner, then to Sky High with cousins, and AGAIN to Froyo that night...Sheesh! How do you beat that??! let me show you...
I drove the kids all by my lonesome to Seattle so we could have some fun while daddy was being scoutmaster at the scout encampment. Mary, Emily, Nana, and Papa woke up with us to catch the 7:30am ferry and drive to Port Angeles...more accurately, Crescent Beach for the low, very low tide.
...the ferry ride was 200 points alone!
The tide pools were awesome! We found crabs, urchins, anemones, starfish! and a few random fish...
...that was worth another 100
Then lunch on the beach with lots of yummy-ness. Perhaps not worth any points all by itself, but then out of no where a bald Eagle swooped down only a few feet from us!! That was AMAZING and Addison gave it...200 points!
This girl may have eaten her weight in sand...
The birthday kids enjoying their perfect day!
Squirt gun fight with Nana- another 100 points!
Seriously, so wild, and so adorable...
ANGRY BIRD CUPCAKES!! made fresh by mom and Nana- another 100 at least!
So happy!
A few more point-winning items from the day...a new skateboard!, a stop for ice cream on the way home, and movie night with favorite aunt Mimi...
This folks was a 1000 point birthday!! (oh man, what ever will we do next year??)
