On our way to Idaho

Our stop for lunch was in Yakima. We drove by this random old dinosaur park. I bet it was super cute in the past but it was super run down. The boys had a great time playing even though it was super hot.

"look mom a stegosaurus is eating me"

We stopped for the night in Caldwell and stayed with the Martins. Not sure where those pictures are. Then we visited some old friends from college who live their as well. It was fun visiting the Tarter's i haven't seen them in years and it was fun to catch up for an hour. They told us we needed to stop and see the falls in Twin Falls Idaho. 

I'm so glad they told me about it because it was beautiful and a great place for lunch.

Oh man this pictures makes me laugh. Kade looks like such a tough guy. 

Soccer and the zoo

So I know I have been super bad at blogging but yeah i'm way behind in editing back to July. So I have tried to take more pictures with our point and shoot so I can update more often and take more pictures of the boys. Sometimes taking the big camera doesn't work so well. So here is the last week or so.

Sometimes when Seth is throwing a fit in the car I threaten to take a picture of him and then he stops crying. It is working great so far.

On our way to soccer. Do you see how dark it was! it was 10am

not sure about playing in the rain

finally getting into it

Seth wouldn't hold the umbrella over his head at first

Then he figured it out and looked so cute.

Wet but having tons of fun

Its always fun to play with dad. The other team didn't want to play so our team must played around on the field with their parents. It was awesome

Does this not look like Erin...yep i'm pretty sure it does

Looking for worms with Dominique

They each found one drowning in the water

After we got home Seth didn't want to go inside so jesse and him splashed around in the puddles. So glad i have rain boots for both of the boys. 

We were working on a few projects in the garage and Seth just chilled on his bike... not sure where his pants when

Wednesday we had to take Kade's jeep up to Bellevue to get fixed so I decided to take them to the Woodland Park Zoo. We got to use our pass which was so much fun. I really like the Woodland Park Zoo we only saw half of it and then the boys were done. Good thing we get to go back next week when we go to pick up his jeep

A mama lion and her 4 kids

Watching the elephants eat

Posing with statues. Kade wanted his picture with all of them

Seth has been walking crazy these days. Sometimes he will walk backwards, other times on his tip toes and other times side to side. He is so silly.

The Brown Bears are huge and just hanging out.

I attempted to get a picture with me in it... umm yeah this is as good as it gets

Doing the Puyallup

We went to the fair with Pam and she had tickets for the Rodeo. It was great

We love Pam

Front row seats.

We walked around and saw the animals. I just noticed Kade's awesome pants. He did get lots of compliments on his duck boots.

They have a little petting zoo that the boys LOVE. Seth is a big fan of the goats, okay really every animal

Saying hi to the strange farm animals. 

Kade started soccer and well lets just say its a day by day event. He has his hands in his pockets a lot in practice. 3 & 4 year old soccer is super funny. I really like his coach he is great with the kids.

Sometimes we just like to be a grump

We also tried kinder swim lessons. I liked it but wasn't loving it. I would like it much better if it was private lessons. the boys seemed to enjoy it. I'm still deciding

even Seth gets to do lessons. I might try a different instructor

Dad came home and we got to go to the fair again. The boys loved riding the tractors

We got Kade a wristband so he could ride on the rides and he was so excited. He wanted to ride them all day long it was awesome. 

This kid was super happy driving his fake car!

We waited for this ride and then Kade had to pee right before he could get on. Then we waited again and he decided he didn't want to do it. 3rd time is a charm and he actually rode it and loved it.

Yes we got cotton candy and the boys loved it!. It was huge!
