Fun Adventures

We've had some great fun lately! Here are some snapshots of our adventures.
The Great Wolf Lodge in Grand Mound, WA
It is a family friendly hotel with a huge indoor water park. We went with several other families from my Bunco group and had a FABULOUS time! Isaiah absolutely loved the waterslides, the wavepool, the giant bucket that dumps 1,000 gallons of water on your head, the arcade, and the talking animals all around the place. Elias wasn't as confident in the water, but started getting used to it and will love it next year! Seth, well, he loved the waterslides as well-the kid came out in him and I think it was a good break from heavy-duty Seminary studying!

At dinner, Isaiah is almost ready to fall asleep!

I currently have a sister and brother-in-law in Vietnam and a sister in Egypt. In this day and age of technology, it is great to be able to talk with them on the phone as if they were in the next city, not the next continent. My sister called on Isaiah's birthday and got the privilege of talking to both the boys at the same time. To some this would be confusing because Elias' can speak some words very clearly and the rest of his sentences are jibberish. And, he will speak while anyone and everyone else is speaking, just to make it more fun.

Here is first-born followed closely by second-born. I think they say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
