August 2011 - Quinn Turns One
We didn't make too big a deal for Quinn's
first birthday. Rather than a full party, we
just had a short intermission at the family
reunion. But he enjoyed it anyway!
The Nonis women had a fun tea party in
Sumner at Secret Garden. While visiting
they came up with elaborate plans to turn
Poppi's house into a tea room. Meanwhile
the boys pretended to be settlers at Fort
Nisqually.
Usually we hit the beach 2-3 times a
summer. Gene Coulon has it all...a beach,
Ivars and Kidd Valley, and a park Matthew
calls "Troll Park" because Daddy pretends
to be a troll there. Parking is a bear
though!
As always the summer flys by quickly. It's
hurricane season, so Daddy is very busy at
work, but we still have time to fit in a lot
of playtime.
