monday we went on a hike... i hate to hike... but i made it :) we went to a place called Twin Falls and hiked about a mile in and a mile out. it was beautiful and hanging out with his family is fun, especially all the nieces and nephews :) there
was a river all the way along the hike that led up to the falls (hence the name, twin falls) and at the bottom we had a little spiritual moment there.. it was a good day!
tuesday we drove three hours to the washington coast to spend a day at the beach... i was thinking yeah beach. sun sand and swimming... ha ha i was not quite right on that one... there was sun... but there was fog and wind to freeze me to death... there was sand... but it was cold! the kids and scott's dad and brothers built a pretty sweet castle... but i didn't move much... and swimming.... HA HA HA that water was so cold that standing in up to my ankles made my toes so cold that i thought they'd fall off!!! despite all that lol i had a good time, again mostly watching the nieces and nephews :) 
one of the boys found a live jelly fish.. it was pretty sweet. i touched the top... it doesn't boing like on nemo! little Arianna(2) liked it. she loves nemo! we took the jelly fish when the kids weren't looking and set it free lol. i'm pretty sure it was already dead :(
p.s. my hair was a MESS!!
Wednesday we went to the woodland park zoo in seattle. it was fun. i love the zoo!! there are quite a few animals that aren't at the phoenix zoo... brown bears, hippos, salmon, and the coolest of them all was the armadillo!!!! it was so cute!! of course the nieces and nephews had a blast!!
the really funny thing tho was that there were elk in a big enclosure. i laughed cuz they are all over the place in northern az. and there was a deer exhibit... i didn't see any deer in there but i saw a few out in the trees on the way home lol.
Thursday we just hung out at scott's sister's house. ate, played rock band, took pictures, and had a good time. that's our niece Isabel with the bunny, she's one :) her dad moroni is on the guitar in the next pic with our other niece Kayla(13) on drums.

that's dustin and lisa and their boys ausitn(7) and jake(5). they're super cool!

friday we went to the seattle science center and IMAX. it was pretty interesting. the video (deep sea adventure) was not too much fun, but the kids liked it and that's what counts :)
the coolest things in the science center were the mirror and the bubble wall... the pics tell it all lol
the last day of family fun we went to dinner with scott's parents, shawn (scott's brother) and his wife to Lake Washington to eat dinner at Ivar's and walk around the lake. we decided to take a break on the grass to enjoy the sunset... alone :)
