A weekend to remember



The water park is always good fun!!
Here is some of the gang there.
We had a full weekend!
Rick and Kelly Stiles and their boys came on Thursday. Kelly is a friend of Natasha's. (and now a dear friend of mine too)  They were across the street neighbors in CA. Now Rick is stationed in WA. They made the drive to Moses Lake and we enjoyed a party at the arcade for Seth. Then came here for appetizers, games and fun.
Lesha and kids and Tasha and kids came Thursday too. Matt, Brenda and Phil were here at 9:30 Friday morning. They got up EARLY! They drove the four and a half hour drive and had all of Friday to spend here.
Tasha, Lesha and kids stayed in a condo in Mae Valley. Brenda, Matt and Phil stayed here. The majority of our time we were here. But frozen yogurt, the water park and an adults dinner out was included in our fun... a little thrifting too!  The cousins ran wild, 10 of them! But when Rick and Kelly were here their were 12 children running around. The weather was perfect. Good memories were made.

Lesha is such a good aunt!
She is so fun, so kind!



Daniel and Seth


Will


Kai, Merit, Will, Lane and Phil! Baseball at the park!

This girl has been through so much.
So much.
While here, she learned about some happenings back at home that could have made her stressed. But you know what, she made the best of the time she had, here, with us! I am SO PROUD of her. There is no one like her.

Night out! No kids! Adults only, fun times

I love these two! Cute couple! We enjoy laughing with them and making memories with them.


These people.
They are so good for my soul.
They are therapy through old stories, laughter, forgiveness and grief.
Our times together are too far between.
I love these four!
