Dessert Aire

This past weekend we all went over to Brets brothers vacation home in Dessert Aire which is in Eastern Washington. For the past couple weeks after work Bret has been building them a rail to go around their new pool they were having put in. So we went over there so he could install it. I was excited to get to spend time with family and I knew Cameron would love seeing his cousins.
Here they are, working hard to get that rail put up in time for the pool to be filled.
Cameron and Brody had a fun time playing together. Brody is 6 months older than Cameron which right now is a bigger gap then it will be in a few years, but they still play well together. They were so cute they would give eachother high fives and here Brody is giving Cameron a hug, so adorable!
So as you know Cameron has a love for animals. Jim and Megan have a dog named Gunner and Cameron followed that dog around half the time we were there. Gunner is a very patient relaxed dog. He is used to having kids around him and doesnt mind too much being poked and prodded. Cameron loved giving him kisses and hugs and petting him and of course playing with his tail.
Cameron, Peyton and Riley.
Once the pool was filled we had fun playing in it. Megan and I spent nap time one day floating around in these chairs and relaxing. And the kids had a blast. Riley and Peyton are really great swimmers for their age and they were having so much fun.
Because their house is right on the golf course the girls like to set up a lemonade stand and sell lemonade to the golfers. So that last day we were there they set up and started selling. They were so cute yelling "lemonade for sale" to everyone going by and they got so excited when someone would buy some.
While we were busy selling lemonade the boys went out golfing. This is the 13th hole which is the one their house sits on. I snapped a picture of them playing and then they game to buy some lemonade!
Here are a few pictures of the rail/fence Bret build for them. Its kinda hard to see since its grey. He did a really great job and it all turned out really well. He had actually never even seen the house so he had to visualize what it was like. He had drawings and measurements but for only that he did a good job of making it all fit right. He barely had to modify anything.
Cameron fell right asleep on the way home. He was so exhausted. It was a fun, long weekend.
I have so many cute pictures that I wish I could put them all on here, but that would be way too many!
Thanks Jim, Megan, Riley, Peyton and Brody for letting us come have a fun time with you!

I hope you are feeling better! I think Cameron enjoyed spending time at his Grandma's this weekend. I can't believe how white is hair has gotten since I saw him in May.
