Our last Sunday in Lynnwood.
I had the opportunity to chaperon one of Audrey's 4th grade field trips.
While we were downtown I couldn't help but look around Pioneer Square and appreciate the beautiful city Seattle is. We did the underground tour, and I highly recommend it!
(Especially if you have an interest in Architecture.)
Joey's 6th grade graduation ceremony. Lynnwood Elementary was good to us.
Middle School here we come!
Ok, so the last day of school in Lynnwood was also the first Monday we were officially in the new house. As we awoke at 5:30 am that morning to get ready and drive the 50 minutes back to Lynnwood, Joey came into my bedroom which over looks the back yard and gasped. Joe and I came running to the window and there it was...... A Black Bear!
We knew we might see a little more wild life out here than we had in congested Lynnwood, but seriously there are not words to describe! Joe has a hilarious video with commentary which of course I can't get to upload right.
He (or she) just wanted some strawberries off of our bush, and then easily scaled the fence and went to our next door neighbors fruit trees. Since then we have regularly seen wild rabbit, raccoon, hawks, bald eagles, and tons of deer in our front and back yard. The only sign we've had of bear have been the litter and big paw prints found all around our trash can. ("oh.... so that's why everyone keeps their trash inside their garage!")
That first week was kind of a doozy! First Bear and first injury! Quinn's stitches from the new banister.
