Green Lake - Finally!

Last week it was supposed to get to 80 degrees. I took the opportunity to go to Greenlake with the family (and the boy I watch: Jordan). It was overcast and not too warm, until we were about to leave! Needless to say we did not go to the wading pool. Rachel was a little bummed, but she loved the playground. We had a little snack and a fun jaunt back to the car. After Brett whining that his feet hurt we all relaxed in the car. I'm glad we went and we had tons of fun, but I was really hoping for the outdoor swimming experience one more time this year. Now fall is in tow and we're stuck with the indoor pools, which I am of course grateful for. Here's a few photos of our adventure (Rachel was getting tired and Brett is such a softie, so he carried her!).

Rachel is so proud that this summer she can FINALLY do monkey bars and rings by herself! (she could do them last summer, just not very well). Go Rachel!
I promise I was having a good time, Brett just took a bad photo! Jayden loved this slide and she was so happy that she could climb up there and slied down without mom's help. My girls are quite independent!
Here's my hottie and softie carrying Rachel to the car. Chewie was also so excited to go on an adventure with us. So many parks and trails are pet free, so it was nice to take him along!
