The Hood canal season that is. The season of sun, campfires & smores with Reeses peanut butter cups, drinking too much wine, waterskiing, swimming, spending time with our incredible family, margaritas at noon while floating in the water, playing baggo until dark and enjoying my beautiful little family. Our season doesn't usually start until Memorial Weekend but since my Grandma was able to get a few weeks off from chemo and come home for 10 days we all spent the weekend together with her. We started a new tradition of "buckets" this weekend. My Aunt Sally was able to talk her neighbors (they own a local restaurant chain) into giving her the recipe of a very special drink - you are only allowed 2 of these at the restaurant....now we know why. So if one was to walk by our place on the beach they would have seen about a dozen people walking around drinking out of buckets being quite loud.
We even came home with a bit of a tan, Westyn included, even though she was covered in SPF 50, I think she was blessed with Troy's ability to get a great tan.

A toddler! Crazy!!! Cute walking down the beach with mommy.
Love the pics, but was hoping you got a few of you guys drinking from the buckets! The one with Troy and Westyn is priceless. Wish we had more time this summer, would love to make a visit to the canal :(.
Westyn is going to have such a blast up there terrorizing all the crabs and starfish. What a great place to grow up!!
She's beautiful, love the pony tail!
All the pics are adorable, but like Jen said love the pic of Westyn and Troy both taking a drink. Is that sign of things to come the next 20 years?
SOOOO cute! I cannot believe how much she has grown!
You will have such a great summer Ash! You also do have an amazing family, and Westyn is getting so big. Say "hello" to your mom and dad for me. =)
Awww, I love the cabin. I hate to say it, but the buckets sound dangerous...
Wow that last comment really says it all! ;) Kidding... Westyn is soooo cute! I love the pic of her & Troy drinking, ha! Looks like a fun time!
Wish I had a bucket right now! Reading that post made me really miss the canal. Hope we can go soon! What great pictures - especially the one of you guys walking on the beach. Precious!
