Sunland 2010

We are so fortunate to have close family friends, Mike and Karen, who have an amazing "vacation" home in Sunland.  They are so gracious to let us come visit and stay at their house pretty much whenever we want.  They always make us feel at home and we have the best time with them.  If you don't know where Sunland is, it is a small community (pretty much all vacation homes) by the Gorge right next to the Columbia River.  We usually try to go once, sometimes twice, in the summer, but we skipped last year because we had so much going on and I was paranoid that Ashlyn was too young to go in a boat or be in extreme heat.  So we were very eager to get over there this summer.  We all had so much fun and Ashlyn enjoyed her first ride on a boat!

 Ashlyn loves Mike!  They had such a good time together.

 The back yard.  Not bad huh?

 They have a fun game room upstairs and Mike let Ashlyn play on the pool table.  She had a "ball!"  Ok, I'm not very funny I know.

 And what an amazing view it is!

 Being silly!

 Snack time!

 First boat ride.

 Thank goodness they have Yo Gabba Gabba in Sunland!

 She played on these stairs all weekend long...up, down, up, down, up, down....
