Remlinger Farms

After our sad attempt at Raspberry picking we headed over to Remlinger Farms for some good ol' fashion fun!




Elle tried out all the horses...

From the driver's seat...

...and from the passanger's seats!

I don't think you want to mess with this cowgirl, as she has quite the draw!

Enjoying the steam train ride

Baylor and I liked it as well!

Showing Elle the ropes of driving a tractor!

Elle loved the canoe ride and did awesome all by herself, what a big girl!

Nothing finishes off the day like lemonade and popcorn!

Rasberry's or bust

We attempted to go Raspberry picking on the last open day for the season....



We found out quickly why it was the last day of picking.

This is the fruit of our labor after 30 minutes.

As you can see Elle quite enjoyed them!

Elle was a happy little clam with a full belly of raspberries but I felt defeated as we will not have any homemade jam this season.  Ah well, heard berries were on sale at Costco!

Flaming Geyser State Park

We headed over to Flaming Geyser State Park after breakfast to check the flame out as well as check off the park from our 2010 to do list.



Colby and Elle checking out the river that meandered through the park.

The hike was a bit longer then planned as they are doing construction and you have to walk into the park.

This was the mighty flame we were in search of!  It has been recorded to be as high as 8'. Apparently not in the last 20 years or so.

It was a perfect day and we plan to take a picnic back sometime this summer!

Can You Guess Where We Are?

Pikes Place market!  We forgot our camera but the phone pic worked well.  It was a beautiful day to walk around and eat Stewart's beef jerky!  YEAH, we didn't have to go to Olympia to get it!!

I feel a rumbly in my tumbly

We had a fun weekend hanging out with Mom and Daddy O. Of course we forgot the camera but if you go to No. 81 rd's blog you get the jest of the weekend. While down in Olympia at the Farmer's market, I spotted Stewart's meat counter across the way and made a beeline for it. Colby questioned the price to which I responded "They bought my steer in 4H and I have to support them" to which Colby shot back " We have been paying them back ever since and I think they got the better deal." Touche my friend, touche!

As you can tell I won :) Here are my prized possessions and the girl was nice enough to throw in the reusable bag! How hip, the meat market has become!!
