Summer fun

Since Noah is getting older now we have tried to have more fun. We had our very first boy camp out (sleep over ). We had Rylan ( 9yrs old) and Kai (6yrs old). Kai didn't stay the night he just wasn't ready. But we cooked hotdogs out on the firepit in the backyard and made yummy smores. The next morning we had whole wheat waffles with syrup and whip cream. Life is good.

Rhino

Well this year we finally decide to get Noah a pet he has been wanting. But since we rent we couldn't get a dog or a cat. I'm not into fish, birds or bugs. So we went with a Guinea Pig. Ward and Noah named him Rhino from the movie Bolt. I love him. He is sweet natured and just loves to cuddle.

Clallam County Fair

I rode this one with Ward and Noah.... I chanted the whole time...praying for the ground...my boys just laughed.

This weekend was the Clallam County Fair. This year we were smart enough to pre-buy one of those all day bracletts for Noah. We told him we were taking bottles and cardboard to the dump (which we did) then we were on are way home and he saw the fair. Saying Mom , Dad we could go there.... we played it off but we still parked. He was so excited. We went and ate lunch...then went and checked out the animals....then off to the rides. Noah isn't afraid much of rides. In fact he loves the ones that take him high into the air. Me, I am chicken. The first time he rode the ferris wheel he was fine, he even rode it alone. But the second time he rode with another little boy they ended up getting stuck on top. He hated that. In fact he started to cry and just when it was there turn to get off the guy put them back on top so I marched up there and told him my son was in the yellow chair at the top he is crying and I would really like him down. Mad Momma bear.

Family Day at Salt Creek

My wonderful Husband Ward. He let me take a picture of him with doing something crazy.

He is growing up so big. These two guys have my heart.

Noah started the water fight....Daddy just finished it.

Noah liked the water so much... he self medicated
with the bucket

Noah was trying to use the driftwood to splash Daddy....I finally told him it would be faster to just use one of the buckets.

We decide to go to Salt Creek today. Its one of my favorite spot up here in the Northwest. The weather is beautiful and we just needed to get out of town for a bit. Get some sun ( Which my fair skin is red and crispy, yes I put on sunscreen). We had a great day of sun , beach, water, and food.

Shhh don't tell

Okay, every night before bed I read...I love to read. For Christmas I was given a Kindle. I love my Kindle. But last night I noticed Noahs Nitendo DS next to my bed getting charged. I thought you know we have had this thing for 8 months and I have never played it. Hmmm whats the hype? So Harry Potter Legoland was in there....and a hour and a half later I was still playing. I have to say I loved it. Tonight I played again and Noah came out to use the bathroom.... he looked over and said" Mom ,what are you doing?" So basically I then took pointers from my 7yr old on how to play the game. He said tomorrow he would teach me more. Oh I can't wait....
