Washington Trip

Kensie and I took a trip to Washington in June to visit my family.  On the way there she got her own seat and was really well behaved (thanks to my bag full of tricks!).  She was completely amused we were on an airplane and loved looking out the window. 
When we arrived at Grandma and Grandpa's house she was so excited!  She went around running from room to room while shouting with excitement.  It didn't take her long to find the rocking horse.

Kensie liked playing outside in the rocks and dirt and having so much room to run around and play at my paren'ts place.

We went to the Quincy watersides with Kellie and Payten.  Kensie loved the water slides and wanted to go down them over and over.

She went on her first tractor ride with Grandpa.  First she was apprehensive about getting on the tractor but once inside she was completely amused.

She absolutely loved Grandpa.  Every time he came home from work Kensie got really excited.  Anything Grandpa did or said made her laugh. 

We went to the Bird's lake house at Billy Clap Lake.  Before dinner we went on a boat ride.


Lori and Brent's family came to Grandma and Grandpa's house while we were there also.



Kensie, Grandma, and I spent the night at Lori and David's house in Tri-Cities before heading home.  My mom, sister, and I were able to go shopping without kids for a few hours.  It was so fun!  Sunday we went to church with the Bowers and then headed home.  The plane ride home was awful and Kensie screamed for a long time.   

It was such a fun trip!  I always look forward to going home in the summer to visit my family and escape the Vegas heat.
