Sunriver

We went to Sunriver with the May's the second week in June. It was lots of fun. It was kinda chilly but still a good time. The James' didn't make it this year, but hopefully next year!

This year the house we stayed at had a hot tub right outside the living room windows so us adults could keep an eye on them all while sitting on the couches hanging out and watching tv. It was awesome! The kids were in and out of that thing all weekend.

Hanging out outside of Goodies.

Everyone loves going to 'Goodies' the Candy/Ice Cream shop.
We do a couple stops there a day.

MaryLeigh brought her 500 piece puzzle her aunt gave her to work on... but us Moms kinda took over... then Callie went and bought another one!

Caldera Springs Resort does a kids fishing day. They do lots of little activities and put fish in their pond for the kids to catch. Last year we didn't catch anything but this year Logan and Baylor caught 2 fish!

On the second day Logan and Baylor went hiking to the 'Lava Casts' while Wesley and I stayed at the house and took a nap.
Logan said it was an awesome hike.

The new 'Sharc' park opened. It has an indoor/outdoor pool, park and dry tubing slides. The water was really cold since it was cold outside but of course the boys still wanted to swim so I went in with them. Once we got used to the water it wasn't too bad!

 Climbing at the park.

These are the 'dry tubing' slides. On Baylor's first ride down he screamed his head off. (Because he was having fun.) I heard the girl working there ask another person, 'Did you hear that little boy screaming?!' It was pretty loud! Wesley wasn't big enough to go down but he was a good sport... he had fun playing in the extra tubes!

Everyone got a chance to do the bumper.... saucers?

On the first night we were there Baylor was sleeping in between us in our bed. It was dark in the room and I just heard his little voice ask, 'Mom, who's house is this?' It was pretty funny. He loved the 'Sunriver House' as he calls it.
The May's already have a house booked for next year...
we are looking forward to it!

Baylor's 4th Birthday!

 Baylor turned four on June 4th! This was the first year that he was SO excited for his Birthday. He has been talking about his 'Ninja Turtle/McQueen Birthday party' since December. I made him choose one theme and he chose Ninja Turtles. He doesn't have any of the movies, but he loves to look at Logan's old photo albums and Logan had a Ninja Turtle party when he was little, so Baylor wanted to follow in his footsteps :)

 We made these mini pizza box invitations. I saw the idea on the internet and couldn't resist!

This turned out to be a fun theme to do. Of course we had to do a 'Pizza Party' since Ninja Turtles love pizza! We had Slime-aid (lime-aid) and I did the four ninja turtle colors in the cake.

One of Baylor's very favorite things to play is camping, so I found this cute idea to make a felt camping kit! I asked Lori (Grandma May) for some advice when I first started the project and she got excited and helped me do a lot of it... that was awesome! We also made little felt Graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate bars for the Smore's. 

And just for fun......

These are some pictures from Logan's Ninja Turtle Party:

Since I will have 3 boys I'm thinking this probably won't be the last Ninja Turtle party at our house!
Happy Birthday Baylor, I LOVE YOU!
