Seattle...week 3

This past Saturday we made the long drive home.
I didn't even ask one time if we were there yet...I knew that it would be dark when we got home and it was. Boy, was I happy to get here. I'm a little sad that I don't get to be with my grandma and cousins any more...but I'm so happy to be with my toys again.

Our last week in Washington we went on another camping trip.
This time it was with Grandma Bonnie at Lake Chelan.

Cooper spent a lot of time in "the cage".
Mom didn't like him in the dirt...Cooper likes the dirt...and he likes to eat the dirt.
Sometimes Blakely was in the cage with him...and sometimes she would sit on Cooper.


I spent most of my time playing with Cameron and Kensie.
We had lots and lots of fun.
We only didn't get along a few times...like when Cameron and Kensie said I had to act like a girl to play with them. Or the time we told Kensie she couldn't play transformers because she was a girl. But the moms and dads told us to knock it off and include everyone...so we tried.


Every night before bed we had a fire and ate smores.
I love smores...a lot!


Our first whole day at Chelan we went to a water park.
They had little kid slides...


...even Cooper could go down them.


and they had big slides and slides with tubes.


Every one had so much fun!


The next 2 days we played in the lake. 


we fished


used the paddle board


and just had a whole lot of fun!


It was a very busy 3 weeks and I pretty much loved every minute of it!

and in case you are wondering...Cooper turned 11 months old while we were there...one more month and he'll be 1 year old...that's just silliness!

Seattle...week 2


We have been in Seattle for 2 weeks...
and I'm still having so much fun!

Last Saturday we spent the day with Grandpa Jones and Grandma Mim.
We hung out on Grandpa's boat while he got it ready for Banks.
I pretended like we were driving to Seattle...


and we played on the trampoline.
Cooper was smiling till I started to jump...then he didn't smile so much any more.


On Monday, we went to see Ice Age 4...I LOVED it!



and then we had "conveyor belt sushi" for lunch.
I eat the orange chicken...
I get it off the conveyor belt all by myself and I think it is the coolest!


On Tuesday we went to the park.
I think mom and her sister's had as much fun as me and Cameron.


The digger is my favorite toy at the park.


Cooper went on his first swing ride all by himself...
and boy did he love it!


And then it was Wednesday and Mom had a birthday!
Mandy brought her a Happy Birthday Breakfast Muffin!


Mom turned 35...she says she is not getting any older!


For mom's birthday she wanted to go to a place she used to go when she was growing up.

Green Lake


Mom's grandma and grandpa used to live really close to Green lake and mom would walk down with her uncle and brothers and sisters and swim in the little kiddie pool.

I really like this place too!


And for mom's birthday dinner, she left me and Cameron with a babysitter so just the adults could go eat sushi...I was a little sad, but I told mom it was ok!



On Thursday, we finally got to head out to our first camping trip.
We drove for a little long way to Banks Lake.

We floated...



and fished...


and played on the beach...


and we used these things to do one of mom's favorite thing...


We skied...


and I can say "we" because I did the skim board...



and it was SO AWESOME!!!


I also rode on a jet ski, jumped off the boat, jumped off a big floatie island and swam with just my vest in the deep water and wasn't even scared!

But my favorite thing about our camping trip...sleeping in a tent!


It was another busy and fun week!
One more to go...and one more camping trip too!

Seattle...week 1

Last Friday we drove and drove and drove...


And I watched lots and lots of movies...


And after only asking about 10 times if we were there yet...
we made it to Grandma Bonnie's house in Seattle!

 On Saturday we went to Seattle and ate fish and chips.


and walked around.


and watched some guys throw a really big fish!


On Sunday we went to church and hung out at Grandma's.

On Monday, we had to take Dad back to the airport so he could go back to Utah for a little while. Then mom, and Mandy, and Vicki and Grandma dragged us around the mall.

On Tuesday we went to the beach.


We walked out on a really long pier and looked at jelly fish.


Then I searched and searched and collected and collected until I had a whole lot of shells.


Cooper mostly sat and tried to eat the rocks and sand.


 Until mom put him in the water...then he just wanted to sit in that.


On Wednesday Grandma, me, mom and Cooper went under the ground in Seattle.
After it was over I told mom that it was the coolest tour ever...but today I told her that it was not fun for me. Mom said it was great and that dad would really love it.


On Thursday we went to a park and played while mom visited with some friends she knew when she was a lot younger. Then they dragged us around another mall. 

I got a sliver...it was very tragic.

And today is Friday...and boy was it a fun day.
My Uncle Keith is in the Navy...he is going to work on a sub.
We drove a little long way to see him and some Navy stuff.

Before we looked at the Navy stuff we went and checked out some starfish.


Then we went on a tour of that big boat back there.
It's a battle ship.


 Cameron and I had so much fun exploring and exploring.
There were lots of rooms to go in to and ladders to climb.
It was SO COOL!


Then we met up with Uncle Keith, had lunch and went to another museum where you could see submarine stuff.


Mandy kept saying it was the best day ever...and I think so too!

Instead of driving all the way home...we got to go on a ferry boat.


And we rode it all the way back to Seattle!

We have had a really fun week in Seattle and we still have 2 more to go!
And just in case you are wondering how Cooper is doing with this traveling stuff...

check him out!

He loves to crawl all over grandma's house and play with his toys.


and when we are out places...he loves to crawl all over 
and entertain himself!


And me...well...I just love that I get to spend every day playing with Cameron!
