A birthday weekend in Leavenworth

We've started a new tradition of spending Lance's birthday weekend in Leavenworth.  It's just a fun way to start the summer.  We rented a really cute house close to downtown, and invited lances parents to spend the weekend with us.
I got some great pictures of the kids (they were feeling cooperative and photogenic)... Always a plus!
We spent some time at the beach playing in the sand and (freezing cold) water.  We did lots of walking around town and on the river walk.  We also ate lots of yummy food!
The kids had so much fun spending time with Papa Tom and Anna.  We don't see them nearly enough!
There was a fun little petting farm close by that we had to check out.  The kids loved feeding the animals.  One of the goats got a little aggressive and tried to eat Rylee's dress!  She was a little freaked out after that.
I think the kids' favorite part was the hot tub.  Carson discovered he could float in his life jacket and thought that was the coolest thing.  He swam back and forth many times.  It was great practice for this summer!
Happy birthday Lance!
