50th Anniversary Weekend- Butte Meadows

We had a fun week in Butte Meadows celebrating my parents' 50th Wedding Anniversary!   We go to their cabin every summer, but this time we switched it up a little by having it catered (by my sister and my brother in law:)), and by having babysitters/tennis instructors!

It was fun to be there a day ahead of everyone so we could relax a little after the big road trip! The kids had fun playing tennis with each other and my parents, and it was fun to find a different place to go to the creek!

Then, they were SO excited to have their cousins there!! Between hanging out with the cousins, and the babysitters, I barely saw my kids the rest of the weekend!! Except to take pictures:)! 

It was fun to have the Outpost cater the dinner one night! 

Baking with Grandma!

Memorial Weekend

We went to Black Butte Ranch and stayed with the Wilson's at their house.  The forecast was cold and rainy, so we lucked out when we had a half day of sunshine and warm enough temps to go swimming! The backdrop of the mountains is so spectacular! 

 

Leo is 2!

e had a fun couple days celebrating Leo's 2nd Birthday! My parents came for the week, and we had a party the day before his birthday because all the kids had games on his actual birthday.  It was fun to celebrate with the grandparents, and his siblings especially were excited for his big day!

Birthday morning! 

Grace made the menu of waffles and "bar bars" for breakfast:). 

More baking with Grandma! 

Popsicle celebration with cousins! 

Will's 11th Birthday

Will is 11! We had a fun couple days celebrating him. He wanted to go to an arcade with his cousins, so we headed to Wunderland, then we had a last minute popcicle party with some of his friends before baseball practice.  The next day was his actual birthday, where he requested eggs and donuts for breakfast, Dairy Queen for lunch at school, and grilled cheese and tomato soup for dinner with Grandma Reen and Papa Bill.   It was really fun! 

He was especially excited about his Hot Wheels set! So was Leo:). 

After a lot of work, they finally put his present together!
