NW Trek

Anne Marie and I planned this trip months ago and we chose the most beautiful day of the year! We met Luther, Anne Marie and their son Zach at NW Trek yesterday. It was so wonderful! The weather was sunny and about 80, there were baby animals out, and the boys had a great time running around and learning about all the native plants and animals in the NW.

After we were done at NW Trek, we were all very hungry and a bit tired. So we all drove into Olympia to a Chinese buffet there that the Stenbergs really like. The food was so good and we ate until we were stuffed. Then Anne Marie and I went to the Super JoAnn's to shop and I spent a bit of my birthday money. The boys all went back to the Stenbergs' to relax and play in the backyard of their beautiful new house!

It was a wonderful day and we were so blessed by the whole day!


By the way, I need to mention that all these photos were taken by Andy. Great job, Andy!
