Sol Duc 2012

We had a wonderful family vacation at Sol Duc Hot Springs. It is an amazing place if you haven't heard of it. You drive 12 miles within the Olympic Nation Forest. We rented a cute "A" frame cabin and enjoyed every minute of it. The best part of the vacation is that you are unplugged from life. You don't get cell phone service and or tv in the cabin so it is 100% family time. The kids had a ball and so did we! We spent most of of our vacation in the Hot Springs(which are mineral pools) Rylee and Tyler loved every minute of it because their pool was around 95 degrees and knee deep. The also had a fresh water pool which ranged from 84-85 degrees. The Kids could hardly wait for POOL TIME
We also enjoyed some hikes. We took a 2 mile hike up to the Sol Duc falls and they were amazing.

Ocean Shores 2012

We went to Ocean Shores this weekend and we had a ball. The kids were amazed on how much and there was. We meet up with Nick and Helene and so of their friends! Rylee loved the hotel pool so much while Tyler didn't think it was fun. We made some great memories and we will be back very soon!

Summer Time

We have had quite a busy July! We went down to my parents house for the first couple of days of July and we enjoyed some much needed family time. Tyler had his family birthday party there. We had a great JOHN DEERE party and it was sure a blast! The kids enjoyed their hard hats. We decided on an ice cream sundae bar which was a huge hit! JOHN DEERE PARTY
The next day we decided to go to the Portland Zoo with my sister and her twins! We rode MAX down to the zoo and enjoyed a nice warm day there. We were able to seee most of the animals and we watched the bird show too. They had a neat Lion area where they brought the lion in where the kids can see them up close!
We ended our week with a wedding. Our cousin Meghan got married and it couldn't of been in a more perfect location. This was Tyler's God Mother and he was part of the big day. He was one of the ring bearers and he did a great job walking down to see all the snacks we brought for him. We are so proud of Meghan and Chuck and the wedding was perfect.
We have a couple more trips before the summer ends and Football Season begins! Congrats to Meghan and Chuck! We Love You!
