Hunter had a Birthday....

Hunter turned 10 on Friday.  He had a pretty good fun filled day.  First he went to a free football camp put on by the Seahawks.  Then we went to Menchies for lunch.  After lunch, we went to the lake for a while and played in the water and at the park.  Then we picked up Wynden and headed up to Canada to play laser tag.  Hunter loved it.  It was pretty pricey so they only played one game (Hallie was too scared so she and I sat out).  Then we went for dinner and came home and he opened gifts.  On Sunday afternoon, we had a July/August birthday party with my family and he got a ton of fishing stuff that he is super excited about.  Crazy to think he is 10 now.  He is all boy and loves to drive his sisters crazy, but he is my most thoughtful child when it comes to giving gifts or if he gets to pick out a treat for something he will pick something to give away.  Happy Birthday Hunter!

4th of July Campout

We went camping for two nights for the 4th of July with Wynden's brother and family and some friends of theirs.  We had a good time.  There was a slip and slide at the park that the kids had a great time on.  We fished, played games, played catch, rode bikes, sat around the fire, roasted marshmallows, and just did nothing.  We had a good time.  Cleaning up after you get home is sure a pain though.

Wild Waves

When I was younger, whenever we would drive past wild waves in Federal Way I would always want to go.       It just looked so fun...waterslides and amusement park all together.  Even when I went to college for a year in Seattle we were going to go as a dorm floor, but it just didn't work out.  So when my sister in law said they were going for my nephew's birthday party, I decided last minute to take the kids.  I'm glad I did because it was one of the only nice days so far since school got out and for the month of June it is only $15 per person (and Suzanne had a buy get one free that I used).  We had a blast.  It is a really fun park.  I think we might do this every year....
