This year we took break from our usual French Night as the Sandholms didn't come out here this winter so they weren't able to join us. Carolyn & Njord and Seth and I still wanted a reason to get away for a couple of days and decided to invite our friends Tim & Megan McDaniel to join us and get away without kids for a few nights. We headed up to Camano Island and used Njord's parent's house while they were away on a cruise. It was a beautiful weekend and was so nice to have a couple of nights without the kids. I was still getting over being sick, so being able to catch up on some sleep as well as just relax really helped my cold finally move along! 
Saturday afternoon we went down to Camano Island State Park to stretch our legs and enjoy the sunshine. It was a brisk day, but beautiful nonetheless! 
We went for a beach theme for the centerpiece - shells, glass and rocks
