we left tuesday night to spend the week with sam's family in eastern washington & have been having so much fun enjoying friends, family & sun. it's too bad every week can't be vacation week.
here's what it looked like in iPhotos.
monday. started the week off with some stroller strides where the kiddos had a little race of their own after class. parker was pretty excited about crossing that finish line. after stroller strides it was off to the doctor to hear baby brother's heartbeat & then back home where p-ray anxiously waited for his dad to come home.
sam & parker spent the night working out in the yard {aka parker throwing a tennis ball around while sam pulls weeds} & then parker made it rain at dinner with his rice. side note: picking rice out of carpet is a really good time.
tuesday. we picked sam up at work, ate some lunch & then headed to the sunny side of washington. parker was a rockstar traveler & LOVED looking at all the windmills & rocks & dirt & trucks out of his window for the first four hours & then slept the last two. what a stud.
wednesday. happy independence day america! we spent the day playing with cousins, bbq-ing & riding scooters on the back patio in the sun. thanks to the 5:30am wake up, the lack of a nap & the day of doing nothing but running at full speed with big kids, parker had a major 7:30pm meltdown. that equaled early bedtime & no fireworks for p-ray. laaaaame.
sam & i stayed back at his parents house & watched fireworks out the window while everyone else went to a big show. bright side? i got all kinds of work done & p-ray got an awesome night's sleep. win win.
thursday. lots of cousin time, running through sprinklers time & eating snacks out on the porch swing time. thursday night we hit up family hour at the local aquatic center & ended the night with amazing reeses-peanut-butter-cup s'mores. pretty sure a day gets no better.
friday. chinese food with oversized sunglasses, a drive through the gorgeous palouse {think nothing but wheat fields, granges & the occasional tractor as far as you can see} & amazing WSU creamery ice cream. heck yes vacation.
