Happy 4th

I suddenly realized I had saved this post as a draft and never finished it. Oops.

This 4th of July weekend we:

Canned cherries, dried cherries, made cherry fruit leather, made cherry frozen yogurt, and froze a bunch of cherries to use in smoothies.


Went hiking in Twin Falls State Park, where we almost went passed the stairs leading down to the big waterfall.


Kayaked 11+ miles, going across Lake Washington and up the Sammammish River, where we saw two bald eagles fly right over us and land in the nearby trees. We also saw fish jumping in the lake.


Went out to dinner at Mediterranean Kitchen prior to going to see the fireworks in the downtown Bellevue Park!


My favorite part about the fireworks is that they are accompanied by the Bellevue Philharmonic Orchestra.
