Chuck E Cheeeeeeeese!

Chuck E Cheese was such a treat for the kids! It is deffinatly not often that we go to do adventures like this with the kids! They had so much fun and it was so worth it!

A week away!

Ryan had meetings in Salem OR for a week! The kids and I were lucky enough to be able to go spend the week with him! We had a great time! We met my cousin Lars and his wife Becky and their kids at a park! The kids enjoyed getting out of the motel for a bit and playing outside!

Lydia got in on the flower picking also!



The kids and I spent a great deal of time at pool while Ryan was in meetings! Ryland all dressed up and ready to swim!



Reagan!  It cracked me up every time I looked at him with his goggles on!

The girls had a hard time listening before we went to the pool so they had to sit on the side and watch for a while! As you can tell it was actually quite effective! Lydia is the LadyBug Leauna is the goofy smile!

Reagan swimming!

Reagan and Ryland! They made leaps and bounds in the swimming pool while we were there! They started out not wanting to go in the pool at all! By the end of the week I couldn't keep them out!

My 4 little swimmers! Reagan, Leauna, Lydia, and Ryland!

Jump Leauna!

We took the kids to a carousel while we were in Salam! Reagan was so excited!

Leauna riding her horse!

Lydia enjoyed the ride also!

Ryland enjoyed sitting on the sidelines and watching! He is terrified of the carousel! Poor Boy! It is so funny the difference between him and Reagan!

We took a drive to the Portland Temple! It was so beautiful, even on such a cloudy day!



I love seeing the excitment in the kids faces when they see the temple! Lydia, Leauna, Ryland and Reagan!



The kids realy wanted to be able to touch the temple! They were so sweet as they oh so gently and reverently reached out to touch a wall!

Daddy, Leauna, Lydia, Ryland, and Reagan at the Portland Temple!

We had a great week in Salam! It is always nice to get away and spend some time together as a family making memories!

Visitors!

We were lucky enough to have some of my family visit for a weekend! We had so much fun having them here and showing them around Burns since this was their first time visiting. I didn't get many pictures, but it was great seeing Papa, Grandma, Aunt Kali, Uncle Thomas, TyLene, Tayson, and Jace!

Papa love bannana splits! He loves them even more when he gets to share with his grandkids!

Reagan, Jace, and Ryland PATIENTLY waiting for their bannana splits~!
