Flaming Gyser State Park

While the Pearson's were here we went up to visit Adrienne and Al who are their good friends.  We had such a fun time visiting them and the kids loved their house. The best thing is we live relatively close and Al loves to fish and so does Jesse and he said we can come up anytime to go fishing and clamming. 

Brinly loves chips and salsa

Hanging out and Jesse feeling really really sick.  Pretty sure he didn't make it off the couch more than twice that evening, poor guy.

My child is ticklish, just a little bit

The weather was so nice that we ate outside.  Ken and Pam (the nieghbors who live in front of us) gave us this awesome picnic table that Ken made.  It is awesome and we are so lucky to get it.  Maybe it will make it to the backyard sometime but for now it is in the front yard and we like it there. Funny story about the table the other day i heard kids out front which is odd since we live on a flag lot with our house in the back.  Anyways there were two little boys playing uno on the table...just a little strange but cute.

Kade loved his cafe rio style pork

We went on a little adventure to Flaming Gyser State Park.  It was super nice outside and we had a picnic.  Both these kids LOVE food.

Kade loves his Aunt Megan and I think its safe to say that she loves him back.  Thanks Megs for entertaining him while you were here.

Papa Charlie and Brinly playing in the park.

Papa Charlie and Kade going to check out the river

Papa Charlie trying to keep Kade out of the water. That is a tough job Kade just wanted to go down and throw rocks in the water.

Rocks and water equals a lot of fun and some wet bums.

Me and my boy.

Here is the flame. Oh wait you can't even see it in the picture. Its coming out of the cement circle by Charlie's feet.  So we thought we were going on some nice hike to this place...nope it was maye 500 ft off the road.  At least their was a nice trail by it that we could go on.  It was a fun hike but not much of a geyser.  Oh yeah the geyser was created years ago when they were mining the area and hit this natural gas line and now there is a continous flame there, its not very big but still cool.  Thanks Kathy for taking all the pictures its nice to finally be in some.
