Boise Temple

We arrived in Boise area Saturday night. After church on Sunday, we made a visit to the Boise temple. The word "temple" is now a part of Spencer's vocabulary.

More Boise

After sharing shaved ice we went on a paddle boat and Spencer decided to take over on steering. I'm not sure what they put in the shaved ice, but he kept steering us into the banks.

Spokane, WA

We had fun at Riverfront Park in downtown Spokane.

Seattle, WA

Spencer had fun on the boat ride from Seattle to Tillicum Village on Blake Island. At Tillicum Village we enjoyed a traditional American Indian dinner while watching a presentation on American Indian folklore. Unfortunately, our camera batteries died at the village, thus no pictures.

Tacoma, WA

A visit to Point Defiance Zoo resulted in a friendly peacock for Garrett. Spencer enjoyed all the animals, especially the elephants, which he quickly recognized from his "Animal Adeventures" video.

Long Beach, WA

Long Beach, Washington is the Kite Capital of the world. Here's Spencer's first shot at flying a kite, and the strong winds and the help of Mom made it a success. Garrett also found the beach to be a fun place.

Spencer at Fort Columbia

Have you had your V8 today? Spencer needed his at Fort Columbia, used by the military from 1890-1960 to guard the mouth of the Columbia River at the Pacific Ocean between Oregon and Washington.
