Free swimming

The swimming pool is a little to deep for Stacie to be in by herself but right outside is a little swimming pool that ony gets 18" deep and it's free!! She was the only one in it last night so we took a bunch of pictures. About five minutes later a bunch of kids came. She played with this little girl who spoke Russian. I explained how it is another language and how it was really neat that she could speak two languages. Stacie looks at her and says "Dora can speak Spanish." Oh my silly little girl how you make me laugh.

Awesome park

We found this amazing park at the top of The Dalles. You can BBQ and play frisbee golf and it is super beautiful. We had so much fun!

Pioneer Days

 We went to the Kent's house for Pioneer day with the first and second wards here in The Dalles. They had a huge water slide that Stacie immediately wanted to go on. I thought there was no way she would actually go down it! Two teenaged boys went down first and then Stacie climbed to the top with Adam sat down all on her own and away she went. The little daredevil went down about 15 times. It went really fast and she would scream all the way down. I was way more scared then she was. They had a trampoline in the ground at the end to catch you. One person even bounced off of the tramp and landed on the dirt, of course I didn't laugh, (out loud) haha.

 

They also had pony rides and big horses and a petting zoo. The BBQ was alot of fun and we got to meet more of our ward.

The Dalles

 The country here is alot different then the country in idaho. It is all hills and most of the farming is hay.  It takes some getting used to. This is what it looks like on all sides and the road just winds through it all. This picture was taken a few miles outside of The Dalles headed towards Redmond.
