Our Yakima Trip


Hi Everyone! We went to Yakima on Friday. It was a long trip and a fun trip! We got there around 7:00 pm. We unloaded everything. Once we got settled in the rooms, we decided to go swimming. The swimming was a lot of fun. It was fun watching my dad doing cannonballs. My dad taught us how to swim better. This is my dad and mom's bedroom. My brothers and my dad and mom slept in this room.
We decided to save these Christmas presents for our trip. We opened them in us girls' room. This is all of us with our gifts. All of us got cool stuff.
This is one of the family's gifts. Us girls were doing it at this time. The boys were doing it earlier though. It is a lot of fun doing beads.
This is the boys doing Zac's puzzle. We put the little kids to bed. The rest of us stayed up until 12:30.
The boys got up early and found the motorcycle shop and ate breakfast. Us girls got up somewhere around 8:00. We went down to breakfast when we got up. After that, we went to the motorcycle shop with dad and the boys. We asked for a late checkout so we could go swimming again after that.
After we left the motel, we went and ate lunch at McDonald's. My dad bought us ice cream cones. Then we headed to the elk feeding area which is pictured at the top of this post. It was fun looking at all the elk. The men that were feeding the elk said there were about 650 there that day.


After the elk feeding place, we stopped at this park. You had to walk a long way to get there. We all had a lot of fun on the playground. Then, we headed to Grandpa and Grandma Rhoades' to spend Saturday night at their house. The next day we went to church there and then headed home. This is the end of our trip! ~Alexa with my cousin's help
