Luke's 1st Birthday at Washington Park!

Luke turned one on May 14. We celebrated the occasion on May 10 out at Washington Park in Anacortes. Luke was quick to discover that cake tastes good and enjoyed the freedom of running around in the vast open grassy areas. Notice Luke's determination as he traveled a long distance to get to that ball.



















Great Bear Cake Mom!



















I will get that ball and no one will stop me.



















Take that cousin Thomas!
























Cousin Thomas enjoying Grandma!



















More Please!
























Birthdays are exhausting!

Hanson Reunion at Seabrook

Can you tell we like the beach! The Hanson side of the family got together for a little shindig on the Washington Coast in late April. We all had a fabulous time and here are the pictures to prove it. Luke is 11 months in these pictures.

Our child loves any large object he can manipulate including this stick three times his size.
