St Helen's and the Parade!

Lots of adventures with the sunnier weather. First up, a little trip to the park with my kiddos. I love park days. 

A little water play in the Columbia river. Not exactly Carpinteria, but it works:) 

Our trip to see a volcano, Mt Saint Helens! Pretty epic to see it so close. Earth is truly amazing. 

Next up, a parade! When I heard about this annual parade, I wanted the kids to experience it. Parades are so fun. I got there early with Ethan to snag a spot. He loved the idea of the streets closing down, and kids running everywhere. 

 

They loved the bands, the small floats, and the free candy. Some classic cars with loud engines slowly drove past. They revved their engines super loud. Made Shaun and mine's day. 

Just making memories with the family, and I love it.
