Lake Chelan and Idaho oh my!

We spent last week on a family vacay!
We camped at Twenty five mile creek,
Spent time on the boat inter tubing,
Spent time at Lake Chelan State Park,
Indulged in the pleasures of 24 different kinds of soft serve,
Enjoyed Slidewater Park,
Something we do every year,
Packed up and headed to a favorite hotel of ours in Liberty Lake,
Stopped in at our favorite feed & pet store in Spokevegas {a.k.a Spokane},
Hit the floor running for Silverwood the next morning,
Rode all the rides,
Some twice.
Indulged in more giant ice cream none of us can ever finish,
left Idaho late at night after tons of fun,
John drove us the long five hours home,
arrived at 3 a.m,
safe and sound..


TREMORS Roller Coaster-
our all time Favorite!
The kids at Slide waters with their tubes.

The giant ice cream!
The girl serving us said Shilo was just adorable,
and practically gave us our ice cream for free!

The kids recreate High School Musical off the back of the boat!
We had a blast!
I think we all needed a little down time and some good old fashioned fun-
Oh and a tan!

What a great vacation! Sounds like you all had a great time. You are creating wonderful memories and traditions for your kids that they will never forget.

Did you actually try all 24 flavors of ice cream?

And I'm wondering what your favorite feed and pet store in Spokane is...

bee-
i don't know the name but it's on division [close to the costco] and we love it!
and no we didn't try all the flavors- just peanut butter, cheesecake, espresso, strawberry, chocolate, carmel & orange-we saved some for next time. :)
