Summer is finally here.

Everywhere else in this country summer starts in June. Here in Seattle, apparently this year it starts in August. After a week of rain and 60's this heat is more than welcome. To beat the heat today the girls and I headed to the Eastside to meet our friends Katie and Emerson Heady.

The girls had a great time splashing in the water. A few rocks made it to the mouth, but the towel on the ground seemed to help a little bit.
