Summer Fun in the USA

 

Here are a few pictures from our adventures in the US.  In June, we had lots of fun with the Whittaker clan.  Aaron is one of six cousins, all under 4.  It was great seeing him interact with his cousins.

Our first week was spent at the ocean, all 18 of us!  Such excitement.  Here are all the cousins with their grandma and grandpa, from left to right:

Beniah – 8 months
Donny – 2 years
Everlyn – 2 months
Katie – 1 1/2 years
Jack - 3 1/2 years
Aaron - 3 1/2 years

 

 

 

This was Aaron’s first time in the COLD Oregon ocean.  He had fun.

 

Here is the whole clan.

 

 

 

 

 

For the 4th of July he had his first Smore.  He wasn’t so sure about the mess, but boy does it taste good!

He also had fun playing with Danny’s old toys (so did Danny and Grandpa!)

 

 

 

In July we made the trip to Eastern Washington to spend time with Betsy’s family. 

     

 

 

 

 

 

 

He LOVED the farm and all of the machinery:
