.Alaskan Cruise.

ALASKA 2011

We had the absolute time of our lives.

We are so thankful to Robbie's parents for taking our family.

The boys loved every minute of it.

Just boarded the ship and checking it out.

The boys were out before the ship even left port.

Awww...it's like our Honeymoon again.

minus the two children, and 13 other family members!

Only because children weren't allowed in the casino.

He was done with being cramped up in our small room.

Formal Night.

Oh man.  Dinner's were a test of patience.

After math of biking through the rainforest.

IN the pouring RAIN!

Zipline.

Super fun. 

Glacier Bay

Shopping for the same stuff we did in the last 3 ports.

Although...I was successful in finding Mtn. Dew here.

My cute boys.

Seattle Space Needle.

I love 2 hour waits, especailly in the heat and with small children!

All the cute little grandbabies.

Yes, the 21, 19 and 14 year old are still babies.

and.

the best for last.

Robbie got hypnotized the first night on the boat.

OH MY GOSH...

Funniest thing I have ever ever ever seen.

 

.summer 2011.

What a summer it was. 

When your married to a school teacher...

you seem to SAVE EVERYTHING fun for his time off in the summer!!

.in no particular order.

Bransen played on a neighborhood t-ball team.
and loved chanting "go blue-bombers" more than the actual game itself.

Our one and only yearly trip to Lagoon.
Once is definitely enough for our family and pocket book.

Island Park - no pictures, but memorable.
 2 hour delays in traffic.  missing man in the river. 

4th of July
Riding the fire truck with Papa and cousins.

Four wheeler rides with Papa.
as you can tell - Kohler hates it.

Sparklers and street fireworks with our fun friends.
The big boys liked it more than the little boys.

Rides in Robbie's new jeep in Provo Canyon.
.shaylyn's overall thoughts... No doors, no roof, no thank you!

Hogle Zoo with G'ma Weekes and cousins.

Kohler's 2nd Birthday.
Buzz LightYear Style.

Bransen's quarterly CF Clinic Visit.
First time trying PFT's. (pulmonary function test.)
and he did GREAT!!

AND...

OUR TRIP TO ALASKA.
Which will be it's own post...too many pictures!!


Believe it or not - I wish I would have done better at taking pictures.
Many more fun activities aren't included in this summer post.

Vegas, Disneyland, Swimming, Splash Pads, Fun with friends,
playing at the park, sand box, Monster Truck Shows, Primary Carnivals...


and now, summer is over and it's back to the grind.
