Weekend Getaway

 Scott had some extra time off last week, so we packed up the kids and took a 5 hour car ride to stay with family in Spokane! It was so much fun. We loved every minute of it! The kids chased/talked to/scaredthelivingdaylights out of Joey and Coleen's two cats. We watched funny videos, cooked delicious food, colored and wrestled the children. They are still catching up on their sleep from our trip! Here are some photos of our sight seeing adventures:

Our awesome tour guides.


 We went to a greenhouse at a beautifully HUGE Park. Please forgive my mullet hair!


Cutie pie Ella.

Olivia, who was too excited to slow down for pictures. This girl was running laps in this rose garden!

Ava Clair in her Pocahontas boots.

Makayla Rose Peanut.

This was love at first sight for the children. We drove past it, and then they would not stop begging to go on it. That is Olivia on the slide. So fun!

 I love this picture!

This is a goat in the park that sucks up leaves and garbage like a vacuum at the push of a button. I want one for my house!

Ella Dear in her snow suit because it was so cold outside! We got to see snow, and have a mini snow ball fight, of coarse with Daddy.

These photos were taken on the way home. It was so windy! We pulled off on a rest stop, and let the kids run around and practically get blown away! I stayed in the car with the two youngest, and Scott ran around with the older girls, and spun them around in the grass. He is such a wonderful Husband and Father!

 And such a cutie!


 Ella and I playing in the car, catching snuggles when I can.



And this little girl in the red stretch pants cracks me up! :)
