4th of July on the Island

morning low tide

This year was another successful 4th of July on Samish Island.  It's my favorite day of the year, filled with friends, family, food, lots of relaxation, and the most beautiful setting you could find.  Here are a few of my favorite moments from yesterday:


 the epitome of the samish island parade (photo from kami)


 maddie and erika


 me, kami, and baby welty (who can't wait for next year's parade)


 maddie's amazingly patriotic jello shots


 craig and me enjoying our jello shots


 annual photo op of the regulars


 i got upgraded to sous chef for round two of oysters (until the oysters started exploding at me - then I quietly walked away while dad and randy took over)


 oyster "nachos"


 shaun in the annual golf competition


 best (and cutest) hosts


 kids fishing at sunset


 yummy s'mores by the fire


huge neighborhood fireworks


Hope everyone had a happy and safe 4th! :)

xoxo,

  1. Um, can we talk about the fact that we are in the same order in our annual picture in 2009 as we were this year? Crazy!
