We arrived last Saturday afternoon on the 4th of July and we headed straight for the lake. It was SO hot, almost a hundred degrees outside (the way I like it) so the lake felt refreshing not icy cold. Here are some fun pictures of us playing in the water...
The first night we were there, we stayed in a hotel and then the next two nights we camped. After playing in the water we changed and then headed over to a park to watch the fireworks.
These next pictures are really hilarious. At the park there was a live band and a ton of people drinking and dancing. Paden saw how much fun they were all having so he went over to join them. Paden immediatly began dancing like he knew exactly what he was doing, he even went in a circle of people who were cheering another little boy on he had a little dance off!!
He was pretty upset when the music stopped for the fireworks!
Helping set up camp!
Here are more pictures at the lake. Robby and I spent hours playing "four in a row" and I think I won only twice!??
We were able to find some shade and ice cream cones to cool off.
ahhh........!!!
For breakfast I made eggs, bacon and hashbrowns but all Paden wanted to eat were smores so why not?!! We were on vacation....right! The funny thing was Robby went to the bathroom right after eating his healthy breakfast and came out to find Paden, Evan and I roasting marshmallows (our breakfast)!
On Monday we went to a really fun water park. I liked it because there were alot of adult type of rides that kids could go on as well. Paden and Evan had a BLAST and did not want to leave. We spent four hours here but could have easily spent the entire day here playing. By the way don't judge me for wearing a grandma bathing suit!
The night before we left we took the boys on these race cars and then Robby took Paden to play miniature golf. When Robby came back to the tent he was so excited because Paden got a hole in one, he handed me his score card and told me I needed to save it forever!
During our little vacation I kept watching Robby from wherever I was sun bathing and I kept thinking how much easier and happier my life is because I have a husband that loves to play with our children. I only wish we could take a vacation like this each month.
Believe me if you want to go somewhere close and not too expensive go to Lake Chelan and than thank me afterwards with chocolate!
