Washington Trip

We got to go spend the week of the fourth up in Washington to prepare for Kevin and Christians big engagement party! We had so much fun spending time with my family.  I drove up with my sisters on Sunday and Christian flew in on the morning of the 4th.  We fit in lots of family fun in our week together!

 

Baby Jackson and I before churchy on Sunday.  He is so cute! 

 

The cute kids in their 4th of July outfits! 

  

We went up to the coast on the 4th.  We ended up at Hugs point. I did almost drowned here 6 years previous so I defiantly avoided the freezing cold water.  But, it was a really nice day for the Oregon coast!  

Every year a family in my home ward puts on a HUGE firework show.  It is seriously the best show that I have ever seen AND its in someones front yard.  You have to stay on your toes because you never know when one is going to fly in to the crowd... but it adds to the thrill.  I love it!  I was so happy that Christian got to see the crazyness of Washington on the 4th.  It is seriously like a war zone up their... so many huge fireworks!!

 

Somehow Karleigh slept through the whole show.. I'm still amazed that she did it. 

 

Christian tried so hard to keep his eyes open in this picture.. but the flash was just too bright. haha  

 

 

Christian practicing his dad skills at the park ;) 

 

We played a few rounds of H-O-R-S-E.  Christian and I are not very good at basketball. I'm pretty sure we were the first ones out everytime.  But its cool! haha 

 After the park we came home and watched the muppet movie in our backyard.  It was really fun! 

We had so much fun up there!  We love when we get to go and see my parents and wish we could go much more often! I'm so grateful to have the family that we do.  We have so much fun together! Thanks mom and dad for a great week!
