At the end of the month, and before school started, we took a weekend trip to the beach! We hit up some garage sales, met up with the Vom Baurs, and played at the beach.
our first baby purchase! $2 at a garage sale
We also bought a food dehydrator for just a few dollars and tested it out with apples and bananas!

When we returned from the beach we found ash covering EVERYTHING! We thought we missed the memo and Mt. St. Helens had erupted again. In reality, all the ash was from forest fires in the Columbia River Gorge. These fires lasted for over a week and smoke/ash filled nearby areas. It was bad enough the students weren't allowed outside for recess once school started.
When the fires ended, we enjoyed a clear day down at Washougal River.
To celebrate the end of a successful summer, Shovel & Thumb treated the fam to a fancy dinner at a Brazilian restaurant followed by dessert!
