Hours of Fun


A while back I made this tent for a birthday party, a few people seemed interested in having a tent of their own for their kids. I thought it might be a great Christmas present for family or friends. My kids love playing in it and they are so excited whenever I pull it out.

Since material is such a personal choice, you are more than welcome to buy your own material. I would probably recommend doing that and I will sew and put it together for you. Option 2 is to have me buy the material which then will be added into the total cost.
The first 3 people to order will get a price break at $18.00 and there after $25.00. Please contact me if you have questions and to place your order.

Seattle Trip Day 5













We woke up the next morning ready to hit the town. DeDe had a ton of things planned so we could get the scope of what Seattle was like. We started off that morning by going to the Seattle Center and visited the Pacific Science Center. We found a great place to park which was right in front of the whole Seattle Center block, what we didn't realize was that the Pacific Science Center was on the opposite side of the whole block. Another thing we didn't know was that Bumbershoot was going on. A huge music festival where groups like Black Eyed Peas, Katy Perry, Sheryl Crow etc. So the whole block was blocked off unless we wanted to buy tickets to the festival.

We walked all the way around the block, in the rain, then got to the science center. We couldn't have chosen a better place for the kids to go and play. They loved to learn about the bugs and the dinosaurs. We spent some time in the Tropical Butterfly House. The butterflies were every where. It was beautiful.

Seattle Trip Day 4

Sunday morning came along and we decided to go to church at Tyson's ward on his mission. There were so many people he didn't get to see the day before so it was good for him to see all those old faces. Most people recognized him. He was in Zillah for a year so it didn't surprise me. They were all so nice and welcoming, even though our children had the worst Sunday of all time.

After church we drove up to Seattle. About a two and a half hour drive. The pass was pouring rain. The whole way. It was a down pour. The Seattle area was welcoming us to it's city with its typical rain.

We got to my sisters house and went right out to a park to let the kids run around. We found a little park where there was a fountain. The kids didn't care that it was 50 degrees outside. They ran through that water and played for about 30 minutes. They couldn't get enough of it. They were soaking and shivering by the time we got back to DeDe's place.

Seattle trip day 4, church, driving in pouring rain, kids almost dying of hypothermia, and enjoying our time with DeDe.
