Jetty Jam!

Last weekend, Devin and I went to the Jetty Jam on Jetty Island, an Island (more like a sand bar) on the Sound right out of Everett, Washington. We had so much fun! We were BURNT by the end of the day though. It was pretty cloudy for most of the day, but the sun did come out at the end!




 We learned out to paddle board!
This was my favorite part. We were out there paddling around with the seals! Best part is, we didn't fall in!

We also learned how to skim board. Devin is much better at that than I am. Our main reason for going was to learn about Kite Boarding. It's like wake boarding, but you're pulled by a kite and wind instead of a boat. We practiced on the ground with practice kites. It was pretty cool. We were hoping to watch the pro's race, but it never got windy enough. Overall, a fun day!

Sounds like a fun weekend. Maybe we can see that island when we come over--again maybe not with kids--we'll see
