Mommy and daddy come to town

This past week was a much needed vacation for mommy and daddy
My parents came out to visit me for a whole week!
It was a blast the whole time
We looked for houses. went cherry picking, went to costco, 
bought me an ipad for my birthday, went kayaking at bear lake,
bought a birthday cake, ate out at ferrante's, bonsai, and applebees, 
studied, and just relaxed.
We forgot the camera on most of our outings except kayaking.
So we well start the story there...
 
 
 
 
 My mom and I went kayaking out on the lake while my dad took pictures
and relaxed in the shade
We paddled all the way around the lake and floated
 
 & you can't have a kayaking trip without "taking a dip"
if you can see this one I am actually mid falling haha
 
 
 we tried to stand up on the kayak as the other person moved the kayak 
trying to make the other person fall
It was a blast!
Although we lost mommy's sunglasses
 
 

 I love them very much!
 It was one of many perfect days
We also went cherry picking and ate lots of fresh fruit at the market
I tried my first peach; it was delish!
We drove around greenbluff looking at all the farms 
talking about what my parents are going to grow when then retire
We decided on Christmas trees lolz.

Can't leave out the birthday portion of the trip
They bought me a delish cake from coldstone that I have be forbidden to eat untill Sunday :[
{We will see if that lasts}
As well as a ipad that I haven't stopped playing with
It was a wonderful present!

Also, my mommy and I studied at the pool all day one day
My daddy says all we do is laugh when we study, haha.
"It's just how we roll"
Lots of inside jokes made on this trip.
I can't wait till I see them next!
 Laugh, love, sunburn, & relax <3


 PS: thanks angela for all the microsoft stuff :]

Wonderland!

A week or so ago Casey took me to Wonderland!
We went put putting and played some arcade games :]
 
 
 


 I definitely lost this time :[
But that's ok. It was still fun :]!

Lakeside at Coeur d'Alene

Casey and I celebrated his last day of summer at Coeur d'Alene lake
Independence point to be precise.
It is home of the largest floating boardwalk!
Grumpy man, doesn't want summer to end!
Casey goes back to school early every year because of ResLife
Boo Reslife!
And then later he has Police Intern Academy as well!
So this was his last weekend off from non stop work
It was a PERFECT day!
 
  
& I finished my summer class finally!
So more to celebrate!
 The board walk was very long and we walked it twice to get to "our spot"
 To say the least it was toasty but being on the water was perfect
 There are five moose statues in this lovely city
& I managed to take a picture with two of them
However, the other picture is not attractive lolz
We were blessed with a cloudless sky
 
 Once we set up camp we laid in the sun for a while
 
Until we got too hot & decided to take a dip in the water

 It was too cold for me at first but then I realized it wasn't too bad
  
This is my mermaid rock lolz.
I sat on it for quite some time while Casey swam around 
& apparently took pictures of me lolz
 
 
It was so much fun!!
After a few hours at the lake basking in the sun
we walked back and walked around down town 
& got snow cones!
After this simply perfect summer day
My lovely man took me to Oliver Garden :]
Then watched movies all night! 
It was finally summertime for two days!
Worth all the hard work.

And it's two bare feet on the dashboard
Young love and an old Ford
Cheap shades and a tattoo
And a Yoo-Hoo bottle on the floorboard

Perfect song on the radio

Sing along 'cause it's one we know
It's a smile, it's a kiss
It's a sip of wine, it's summertime
Sweet summertime.
