Tuesday we went to see "Wallace and Gromet: Curse of the Were Rabbit" at the local theater in the morning. That afternoon we went swimming at the Kroc Recreation Center. I'm bad about pictures when we go swimming since I'm in the water with my arms full of babies. It was a lot of fun though.
That evening I got some good hang out time with my sister Julie while her husband was at meetings and my hubs met up with a friend. Julie and I mostly watched kids, got them to bed, chatted, and had a late trip to Target. Brans and his friend went cliff jumping into the river:
My mom and dad arrived late Tues. night. Wed we wanted to visit Spokane since that is where I spent the first 16 years of my life. It was about a half hour drive from where we were. My sister and parents were a little burnt out from visiting Spokane so we just went by ourselves.
Brecken was entertaining himself in the car by creating a fruit roll up mustache.
This is the house I grew up in.
We spent most of our time in Spokane at Riverfront Park. It's a big park in downtown with some cool stuff left over from the world's Fair back in the 70's. I actually worked here as a ride operator for part of one summer.
Brecken the pilot, all systems checked and ready for lift off!
A giant wagon for the kids to play on. The handle on the front was a slide.
These two really love each other.
Caden said to me on the ride home, "Look, I'm the mommy and my babies are sleeping." Aaahh
These are the falls at Riverfront Park.
Thursday we all went see "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs." We really love free movies!
After lunch we headed over to the lake. It was so beautiful up there. Everyone had a blast and Caden even learned a little swimming without his life jacket.
Friday we mostly hung out around the house getting ready to head home the next day. Julie found a slip n slide at a yard sale, the kids loved it. The daddy's and grandpa went shooting guns.
Saturday morning before heading out my Mom wanted pictures of everyone and I'm so glad she did.
All of the crazies. Poor Julie's house was quite over run with all of us there all week. THanks Julie! From left to right: Lana, Leah, Brecken, Branson, Caden, Robert, Lexi, Jessica, Spencer, Julie, Kaylei, Cody, and Emily.
We had such a great week. Thanks again to Julie for feeding such a massive horde and letting us trash her house all week. We were glad the kids could spend some time with their cousins!

That slide looks like a blast! when we go to Washington again, we'll have to make the trip over to see it. I liked Caden as a mommy...darling.
