Other Fun Happenings

This summer is starting to become a blur!  If feels like almost everyday we have something going on, which I'm not going to complain about, but when asked at times what we have been doing it's hard to even remember!

Here are just a few happenings for the last week in June.  We had a family day which is rare for us given the work schedule Cory has in the summer.  We were trying to figure out what to do and Alyssa wanted to go to a bounce house so we went.  There was a somewhat new place in Monroe we went and checked out.  It was OK.    Of course the kids had a blast jumping away and they also played air hockey and foos ball.  I think Knox liked the air hockey the best.
Afterwards he went and got lunch at this amazing little burger place.  It was so good and cheap for what you got!  Which is always a plus!  After lunch we came home and enjoyed the sun in the back yard.  It was a perfect family day!

The kids went to another birthday party.  It was accordingly to Alyssa her "best friend Eva's party."  I have to laugh at that because she calls everyone her best friend.  Not sure where she got that but it's kind of funny.  She will always ask Knox if he is hers and depending on his mood the answer can be a little funny.

It was fun to go over there and hang out with friends.  The kids all had a great time.  Eva had got a bounce house for her birthday so the kids enjoyed playing on that.  We spent about two and a half hours there and then headed home for baths and an early bed time.  I love days like that!

Later that same week we celebrated my sister's birthday.  She is up here staying with us and trying to find a job.  We were trying to figure out what we were going to do.  Cory was working Mariners and hooked us up with amazing tickets and food vouchers.  Not sure that was exactly what she wanted to do on her birthday but needless to say I think we all had a good time.

The kids were sooo excited!  They have been before but this was the first time for Knox when he really got where he was.  He kept yelling out baseball! Baseball!  It was really cute.  They got to see their daddy working on his friends.  I think Alyssa thought that was pretty cool!

We had amazing seats right behind the Mariner dugout.  The kids were really good and got lots of goodies!  The weather was good although we were in the shade so it was a little chilly.  After the game we stuck around and talked with a few of the officers that we know before heading on home. 

I can't wait to take the kids to more Aquasox games and even Rainier games....Papa Ron do you want to join us!!!!

At the end of this busy week we had a play date with another friend from preschool.  Alyssa and Hanna really enjoy playing together and we met up at the park for some playtime and lunch.  The girls are really cute together.  I'm so happy that the kids and I are meeting such wonderful people in our area. 

This was a nice close to a busy week where we started gearing up for the fourth!  I know these posts are out of order but what do you do!?
