Slumber party

We had dinner with our friends the other night then we did a kid swap. Bug had his best buddy over for a slumber party the other night and Bry went home with them to spend the night with his best buddy. The kids had so much fun playing until late and then the next morning I took them to Enchanted Village. Bry wasn't too excited to find out that he didn't get to go but he had fun going to the skate park and McDonald's with his friend. I don't think any of the kids were very happy to swap back the next day.

Playdate at the Pool

We had some friends over this afternoon to play in the warm sunshine and have a dip in the pool. The kids all get along so well and had a blast cooling off in the water. It's been so great having a warm summer and time to play in the yard with friends.

Mossyrock....again!

We headed back to Mossyrock on Thursday for another fun filled weekend of camping. We went with 3 other families this time and had so much fun. Between all of us there were 12 kids 7 and under and 8 adults. All of the kids had so much playing with each other. Lots of playing at the beach, play area, boating and campfires. Can't wait for the next one....which is soon :)

Beach day

We decided to head to the beach this morning before we head out for another weekend of camping. The kids love to go on crab hunts. The tide was pretty far out when we got there and slowly made it's way in so we had plenty of time to find crabs and sand dollars and dig in the dirt.

Happy 9th Anniversary!!!

Mossyrock 09

We headed out Thursday for another weekend of camping. The weather was beautiful until the Thunderstorms rolled in on Sunday morning. The weather change was fun but the thunder woke the kids up bright and early. Since they couldn't run right outside and play they decided to watch the tent campers scramble for cover once the down pour started. I know, not nice.

They met some friends from Puyallup the day we got there and played with them when we were at camp. We did a lot of walking, playing at the park and swimming at the beach. They really love camping. O has such an obsession with the trailer and is always asking about it and where it is, it was quite funny the first 20 times but not so much after:)

Can't wait to go back again with all our friends next.

Enchanted Village

We finally went to Enchanted Village and got our passes today. We met up with A. Jean and the cousins for lots of rides and fun. The twins had their first experience at going on rides and loved them. They kept saying more, more and fought me each and everytime it was time to get off the ride. They were very excited and cute. It was so hard to get them to leave at the end.

Bry and Bug went on all of the big rides and loved them this year. They had so much fun hanging out and going on rides with their cousins. The older boys are so good with the kids and very helpful. I think that they motivated Bry to get on some of the bigger rides with them. I'm sure we will be going many more times this summer.

Happy 4th of July!!!

We spent the long 4th of July weekend at Grandma's cabin with the family. It was an action packed weekend of family fun and lot's of outdoor activities in the beautiful sunshine. The weather this weekend was perfect for the cabin, lots of playing in the water, boating and BBQing.

The lake community puts on a spectacular fireworks show that everyone chips in for. Before the show they had ice cream social and then a dance that Uncle Jeff DJ'd. The twins had never seen the show before since it usually starts around 10:30 but stayed up this year to watch and loved it. It was a great weekend!
