When I met Aaron I was around 16 years old. His Grandmother had a 'cabin' on Camano Island that the whole family had been going to for many years. From what I remember it was green, charming, and filled with memories. I still love hearing Aaron retell stories from his childhood memories at the cabin. Unfortunately one year it burnt down. But thankfully the cabin, and the property, stayed in the family and was rebuilt by Aaron's Aunt and Uncle. How lucky we all are to be able to continue family memories by visiting this wonderful beach house.
Watching the children play on the beach and find no shortage of things to do, or rocks to toss into the Puget Sound, has been a joy.
Getting everyone together at the same time to visit has been tough, but when we get together we sure do have fun.
Aaron and I hope 5 maybe even 10 years from now we can take a similar picture with our kiddos (getting) full grown by this same boat/sign.
If you can believe it we were even graced by the presence of two grey whales (a mama and her baby,I think) that decided to swing by a few times. This is a picture of Tyler keeping his eye out, in case they came back by one more time.
All in all we have an amazing time, each time we go up there. We are so thankful we have time to spend with our family. Being right on the beach doesn't hurt either ;) Hopefully we will enjoy many more memories at 'The Cabin'.
