Fun Memorial Day Weekend

My parents and two brothers came over from the "Eastside" (the REAL eastside, not Bellevue) and we spent the weekend together, it was super duper fun! Saturday we went letterboxing at a new park (new to me after almost 5 yrs! ) that I want to go back and visit. It has a lake with fish that little kids can fish in for free, so cute. Even without fishing poles, Ammon and Shayla were perfectly happy finding a long enough stick to poke at a dead fish floating by the shore. Nice. Then we went to Great Grandma's house after church on Sunday and spent more time with family, which was SO relaxing. Monday we headed to Illahee park (a place I went to all the time when I was in 6th grade FYI) and Uncle Scott with his license..yes we were legal... got a few clams and his limit on oysters. We had fun walking along the rocky shore finding starfish and tiny crabs...wait..ALMOST all of us had fun walking the rocks. Not Liam. He was a bit tipsy and would fall and hurt his hands on the hard barnacle covered rocks and then be a bit brumpy (how Shayla used to say "grumpy"). We all took turns trying to get him to sleep in the stroller, and of course about 10 minutes before the end of our 4 hr excursion, he fell asleep. What a stubborn kid huh.
We also got to stay in a hotel (thank you Grandma and Grandpa K!!!) with "strange beds" as Ammon said, since they were very tall beds, about eye level to him. But the nice tv with Disney Channel made up for it. :)
