Fall Creek

Last weekend was a sweltering 96 degrees. Okay nothing like some of the rest of the country has been dealing with, but for us Oregonians it was a little too hot. We decided to take the kids to a spot some friends told us about. We spent the entire afternoon playing and had a relaxing time. When we drove back we were actually cool.

 The water was cold, but it felt really good. 

 The best part for the kids is they were able to catch over a dozen crawdads. 

 Our kids are so lucky to have a dad who loves to play with them as much as they love to. The whole day he was swimming in the water, catching crawdads, he even tried skin boarding.

 Little Miss wanted to be like the big kids so Ken caught her baby fish to play with. She loved it, one of them she loved a little too much, but we were able to release the rest when we left for the day.

 Baby Huck played so hard. Water, rocks and his entire family as playmates is his perfect day. By the end of the day I was standing with him in an inch of water and all of the sudden he fell forward because he was too tired to stand up any longer. Needless to say by the time we put him in his car seat he was asleep within seconds. 

There was a section where the water had a gentle current the kids could ride through. They made friends with a group of boys and had a great time floating through on the boogie board.
