The Flip-Flop Disaster.

This morning coming home from taking the girls to basketball camp and picking Kody up from Cross Country practice, we heard on the radio about "the best burger place in Seattle". So since Grandpa is coming in August and that is his favorite thing, we decided that we would find out if what they were telling us was true. So after picking up the girls we headed to Renton to find "Five Guys Burgers and Fries". Kody drove and it was a good thing he printed off directions because Garmin got us so lost. Kody was so frustrated that he made me drive after that. When we finally arrived at our destination we found out that yes, it was a pretty good burger. To make things better they made homemade fries with Idaho potatoes. YES! Finally something I have missed. Believe me, it really is the best potato. Then we decided to go and see Snoqualmie Falls.





It is quite impressive. The girls would not go out on the observation deck.














So we decided to hike the trail down to the bottom.





The bad thing is one of Kayla's flip-flops broke.
Did I mention that I hate flip-flops!!





Kody carried her screaming for a short distance.



Then the Boy Scout in him came to life and he pulled the toe strap through the thong and tied it with a weed.

.






Kelsee was the drill sargent wanting us to hurry along.




A huge slug was right in the middle of the path.

Kayla thought she was just going to die having to come back up the trail (and she was very vocal about it also). We had a bet on which would last longer, the flip-flop or Kayla.

After leaving the falls we drove on to North Bend and went to the Factory Outlets. Where we purchased Kayla a new pair of flip-flops for $1.99, but the look on her face in this picture is Priceless!!
Needless to say the broken flip-flop won!!
