Summer Fun 2010!

Just thought I would post some random pics from this summer. Here we are at the Grand Coulee Dam laser light show. They put this show on every night of the summer. It's fun and educational. The kids learn the history behind the dam which is the largest in the U.S. (even bigger than Hoover). We all wore glow sticks and everyone kept asking us where we got them. Hmm, Noah there is a summer job for you... selling glow sticks at the dam. But really, it's a nice evening out!

Bryan and Maddie on Father's Day. Bryan said, "Let her pick out whatever she wants to give me for Father's day." Well, guess what he got? Super Mario Galaxy 2. They have definately bonded playing this game. She has been with us for the summer and has become best friends with the neighbor boy Dillon. They pretend play pokemon, Zelda, etc and it's cute to hear all the stuff they make up. We are going to miss her!

Here we are on the Columbia River. If you ever get a chance to boat on it you will see beautiful basalt columns, wildlife, and clear cool water. We even found a hidden cove that I found out later is not so hidden but it was fun to walk along and feel the soft white sand and great views from.


Here's Bryan fly fishing on the Yakima River. We spent the day at Ensign Ranch (a church camp site) with some friends and guess who snuck away to fish. But I found him and Maddie and I found some rocks for her collection.


Noah has been fishing for trout. Here he is cleaning one of the small ones. We cooked them on our fire pit outside and he portioned everyone a piece like it was gold. He was so proud and loves to do anything outside.
