Water park







It's been pretty hot here in Oregon. In the 90's, so the kids and I have been finding ways to cool off. Last week we played in the Wilsonville water park after watching an air conditioned movie.

The kids had so much fun running, splashing and chasing each other. I love the picture of Caleb laying on his back- he is trying so hard to not lay his head all the way back, but also really wants to try to. You can tell he is definitely more comfortable on his tummy.

Camping/Family Reunion

We love going camping at Aunt Mindy's. Swimming in the swimming pool all day and staying up late to roast marshmallow for smores. Here's some pictures from our trip. We also had lots of fun catching up with Aunt Shawn, Kelly and Scott, and Uncle Steve & James (who we haven't seen in 5 years!!) I will have to say Scott was a big hit with the kids. He wasn't out of there sights for long and if he was the 3 amigos (Chloe, Caleb and Brooke) would wander around asking everyone "Where is Scott?"

James throwing his sister Kelly into the pool for a 2nd time. The first time was unexpected.

Hangin' out by the pool

The 3 Amigos (Chloe, Caleb and Brooke) and Chris entertaining them by driving them backwards in our car all over Mindy's field.

The kids burying Chris with Hay

The Hay Monster (Chris) running after the kids to get them after they buried him with hay.

Cornhole game- What most of the adults were playing or watching- and the kids made it more interesting by running straight through and trying not to get hit by bean bags

The kids and Chris warming up in the hot tub before heading back into the pool.

Christy, Chloe and Caleb swimming. (I didn't swim nearly as much as the kids- some how they were immune to the cold water (78 degrees).

My sister Michelle & me (congrats on getting engaged!!)

All the kids chasing Scott on the scooter. Then once the battery went dead, it was hide and seek/chase with glow necklaces on.

Everyone around the campfire.
