Visit Grandma and Grandpa

Over the 4th of July weekend, we made a trip to Spokane to visit Grandma and Grandpa. It had been over a year since we had seen them and the last time was not a pleasant visit (Brian's grandma has passed).
It was so nice to sleep in and have no agenda and pressing issues. We took the kids to see Ice Age 3 and Transformers 2. Both were excellent movies! I was able to take the time and get my hair cut and colored. If I hadn't got to do anything else....that would have been enough for me. It was wonderful!!!


We went swimming on Friday at a family friend's house. The kids had a blast. They were jumping off the diving board and letting their heads go under the water. They are not scared at all!
The 4th of July was a great day. We went to Silverwood Theme Park. The park had some great rides for kids and adults. We spent the morning waiting in line for rides. It was getting HOT so we headed to the water park. The water park had neat-o kids area with mini water slides, huge squirt guns, and fountains. The kids played so hard, they fell asleep for 3 hours afterwards. I talked Brian onto the roller coaster called Aftershock. It was the most amazing coaster I have ever been on, but Brian did not enjoy it as much. He ended up feeling sick afterwards. Silverwood had a fireworks show that was choreographed to music. It was beautiful!
It was an absolutely, perfect trip. So relaxing and laid back. We enjoyed ourselves so much....until the trip home.....
