My Little Frequent Flyer....

We just got home from a fabulous family vacation up at McKee's Beach in Stanwood, WA on Puget Sound. We went out to visit Corky's family. We had awesome weather with the exception of one day...not bad for Seattle :) There are a TON of pics...so bare with us!



Mario- your pants are glowing!
Getting the crab pot ready! Crab season ends shortly and we were so happy that we were still able to drop the pot while we were there.
Debating on where to drop...
Hmmmm, do they know what they are doing???
Looks like they did! What a catch!
Yummmmy....


Getting ready to crack em'
Typically you crack crab with a scotch in hand... D, where is yours?
BAG O' SQUID!! Getting fresh squid (Calamari) from Pike Place Market is a must. Of course we forgot what to do with it so we had to call my mom who looked it up on the Internet. Cut off purple lining...squeeze out guts, cut into circles...batter and deep fry. Tasty!

Cutting out purple lining...

Sipping coffee on the bulkhead in the morning watching the water..

Uncle Tim brought the boys Salmon fishing. They got a few bites but didn't get to reel anything in. Next time!
