Pool Party, Movie In The Park and Biringer Farm


The last two days have been very busy for us. Well let's face it this summer has been a whirlwind!
Yesterday a good friend of mine son turned three and she had a pool party/bbq at her house. She has an amazing house with a great back yard and built in pool. The weather was perfect for the party. I was a little bummed that we didn't stay longer because we needed to get home so Cory could get to work. He stayed home to rest a little and watch Knox. He was feeling a little bummed about not going because he's kind of feeling he is missing watching Alyssa grow up a little.
Anyways, the party was great and Caden seemed to enjoy it a lot!

That evening we were going to go back to Aquafest, which is Lake Stevens summertime festival. After thinking about it a little more and already have been down there once this week, I decided to go watch a movie in the park. I packed the family up and we headed to the park for some fun! It was at Jennings Park which is another favorite of mine and we played on the playground for about 1 1/2hrs and than headed over to the baseball field where the movie was being held. It wasn't really a children's movie, well a young child anyways,we got some popcorn which was also free
and found our spot. Knox slept the whole time and Alyssa was great, she was really enjoying it. After an hour or so she started getting antsy so we left and went and got some ice cream. I was pretty stoked for I found coconut ice cream!!! It's delicious!!!!!

Today we headed to Biringer Farm for Rooster Days. We got there when it opened and got our raspberries and headed back in for the festivities. It was a lot of fun. It wasn't too hot yet so it was bearable. We looked at all the art work and jewelry and Alyssa even scored a charm bracelet with an ocean theme on it! She than headed to the slides and bounce maze. There were some other kids in there that she seemed to have fun with. I was a little bummed she couldn't go on the pony ride, not because she wasn't old enough but because this mommy never has cash on her!!!! That's all they took so we just looked.

After all that excitement we headed to the park in downtown Marysville where Alyssa could swing. This is one of her favorite things to do. We were there again for a long time and I had a nice conversation with another lady who was there with her grandchildren. This park has a huge field with tons of trees and picnic tables. It was funny because there was some litter around and my little helper was going around picking it all up and throwing it in the garbage. It was very cute, and no worries we did sanitize afterwards!

What a fun summer this is turning out to be and it's only half over! Now your probably thinking she is having a great time where is Knox? Don't worry, he is right along with us enjoying the ride! I can't wait until the can share in all these great memories together!
