Finally Back to Washington!!!

It had been 4 years since I went home to Washington!  4 years ago, Braeden was 2 1/2 and Reece was 9 months.  I went back for my 10 year class High School Reunion!  Yes I am that old!  Anyway needless to say  we had an absolutely amazing time!  I was there for 2 1/2 weeks with the kids, and the very last week, all the fam came!  We did so much fun stuff!  For those of you who have never been to the Northwest....GO!  It is the most beautiful place!

So My Sister Jen and her 3 girls were there all summer, so before the rest of the family got there, we got to spend some fun time with her and the kids cousins!  We went to the park...where Reece broke the inside corners of both front teeth! (so fun)  It was a really neat park though. (Pictures near bottom)  We also went the Seattle Science Center which is the best one Ive been too!  They have a really neat butterfly exhibit, and were featuring one called Goosebumps, about different kinds of fears.  That was pretty interesting!  We also took the kids one day to the local Water/Amusement park call Water waves and Enchanted Village!  It was lots of fun!  Of Course we also hit the Mall which is Amazing!!!  So that was all within the first week and a half before the Roberts family reunion started!

Then Ross, my Brother and his Fiance JaNelle and Jessica my youngest sister, and her fiance Ryan all got there.  The first night we had a luau to Celebrate my niece and Jessica's birthdays!  That was so fun, and lots of yummy food!

Seattle Mariners game!  JaNelle got a certificate because it was her very first game!

My parents house sits on a hill full of a green belt.  My sister Jen and my Mom and Dad made a fun trail for all the kids to play on while we were there!  It was so fun!  Signs pointing to different spots along the trail!

The Sasquatch we made!  He was huge, we couldn't even hold him up all the way!  As you can see he is bent at the knee's! lol  We nailed him to a tree off the trail!  It was awesome! lol

A fun park we took the kids too, where Reece fell on the merry go round and broke her 2 front teeth, and now looks alittle WT! lol

Water fight!

My Dad had to go to his sales meeting afew days after we got there.  So he had the kids all draw on golf balls for him to use when the went golfing!  I thought they did good! :)  I think its Taylor Braeden Reece and Sky's from left to right!

Cowboy corner was the first stop on the trail!

 Moss garden was my favorite stop on the trail...it was covered in soft squishy green moss!

My Dad took the boys mountain biking ( his new favorite thing to do)  They all got worked I think keeping up with the 58 year old! lol  Ross fell off a little bridge into knee high mud!  Notice no shoes!  He had to take them off to clean....they were new!  oops!
