Sunny in Renton!

GORGEOUS day on Sunday! Ended up with a high of 52 degrees yesterday, but in the morning it was frigid - sunny, but cold!

My desire was to do a fun Renton-area activity with the family one more time before getting back on our packing kick. Let's head to Coulon one more time and walk around the water - we always have smiles when we visit Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park!!

Seattle/Rainier Beach (not to be confused with Mt. Rainier which would be completely behind me) area - Olympic Mountains FAR in the distance 
 All bundled up, watching the geese!



A group of people took advantage of the amazingly still water and were on the dock sailing miniature sailboats.


Brock, my photographer-in-training, took this photo off me after climbing to the top of this lookout area!

Here's Brock pointing/covering where we are on the map!

These stairs were a little steep and Brock was not such a fan!

What a difference of temperature from the shade back to the sun!

In a few months, this beach will be littered with people clamoring for sunshine and wading in that refreshing cold water. The beaches here are all so clean!

Kade found one little pebble and was trying to kick it around on the sand
 Finally it was warm enough to go play on the playground. This was Kade's first time at Coulon's playground! Wow did he figure it out way faster than Brock originally did! Once he realized the slide was at the top of the steps/ladder, away he ran to conquer them again!

How cute - both brothers love this motorcycle bouncy toy!

Here again, I don't think Brock entered this tunnel until he was about 2 1/2 - Kade was fearless and followed in right after big brother!

Ummm.... okay - he's playing in the "big kid" section and now he's following brother up to the tallest slide at the whole park! I will say Brock was very helpful with him and continued to give him positive encouragement the whole way!

First comes Brock!

Next in line - little brother! Wow, does that slide look tall!

What a fun morning! Back to packing! This week is going to be crazy with movers and airplane trips and loooooong car rides!

Diesel says he's ready to go!
