Trip to Washington

This was a short, but fun trip for the whole family except for maybe Lela...she had homework to do all day Friday and part of Saturday. There was noise constantly throughout the Wallwork house because of nonstop playing from the kiddos. Nayah and Kalena were best buds for Thursday and Friday for sure...Saturday they started to be tired, cranky kids without enough sleep. We all know how that goes when kids are tired and cranky. Sunday was better because the little ones had all gotten sleep. We were able to see Charlie and Lani who just had a brand new baby, but drove both times to Cajsa's so we could see them. Cliff had a good day with Charlie on Friday playing golf and going to lunch. While Cliff was gone, I showed Cajsa a few things on her blog and then we headed out to east lunch because I was cravign Mexican food. It wasn't too good though. Afterwards we headed to Sonic and got 1/2 price drinks, but they weren't half off when the firl rang us up. Not realizing that the clock in my van, which we were driving, was still set to Utah time. It was only like 5 minutes before 2 p.m., but by the time they got the drinks to us it was 1:59 p.m. and so we kindly asked them to give us the discount due to us being boneheads. Then that night we took the kids to the homecoming parade for John's highschool that he works for in Pasco. He had to work the parade so we decided to go. The floats weren't all that great, but at least they threw candy, right?!

Saturday was a try and clean the house up from Friday night, play a few games of "Settlers" and get ready for dinner with everyone again. The time went by fast and it was very enjoyable to get away for a few days. Cajsa, don't worry we can always play more "Settlers" when we meet again, but you won't ever reclaim the title. Anyway, thanks Cajsa and John for letting us come crash...maybe one day we might head up that way to stay. Who knows what the future will bring. Thanks Charlie and Lani for driving to come and see us. It was great to see you guys and your cute little Leiema. She is beautiful!
