Whidbey Island

For the long holiday weekend we met some friends from Iowa who are spread out on the west coast. Deric and Jennavieve live in California, Adam and I are in Oregon, and Jenny, Eric and Justin live in Washington.


We met in Seattle and went to Whidbey Island. We rented a place called the "Happy House" and had a blast catching up with old friends!



Jennavieve, Angela, and Justin in the kitchen.


Deric and Adam eating pizza and drinking beer, just like old times at ISU.

The deck, which we spent a lot of time on.


The first morning Deric and Justin made breakfast. French toast, eggs, and bacon!


Jennavieve in her Kayak gear.


Eric gearing up for Kayaking.



Suited and ready to paddle!


I think mine is still wet from the last person.
Deric and Jenny, brother and sister, they don't look anything alike. Right?!




Out on the open water.

Adam and I taking a break from paddling. My arms got tired!



Eric and Jenny.


Our guide took these shots for us. Luckily we did not tip any of our Kayaks because he said he would not help us if we did. :) He was kidding though, I think?




Jennavieve, Angela, Jenny, Deric, Adam, and Eric.




The Deception Pass bridge.




It is huge! Really kinda scary if you look down, but amazing at the same time.

The men folk are roasting the ladies marshmallows for s,mores on our last night.


Deric and Jennavieve, Jenny and Eric, and Justin -


It was so nice to spend the weekend with you, it felt just like family!


'til next time..........................




We had a really great time at the "Happy House" If you don't use http://www.vrbo.com/ for your vacations you should. This was another great find for good money.
