The Enchanted Forest

This summer we decided that traveling long distances with our two little girls would NOT be fun so we decided to make a "bucket list" of all the fun things we wanted to do around here and check off our list all summer instead.

Back when Benj was in 8th grade he went on a band trip to the Enchanted Forest. We decided to check it out again this week. It is a small amusement park down past Salem Oregon that was built in the 70's and I am pretty sure has not been updated since. But, it is charming, built on a hillside in a wooded area. There are story book houses to walk through, a play to watch, slides, a haunted house, "Indian caves" to explore, a roller coaster, kiddie rides, and a log ride. The kids loved it all and Benj and I got our workout for the day either carrying one of the girls or pushing the double stroller up and down the hills. Here is a quick video.... really quick video... of some of the pictures we took that day.

4th of July Picture Overload























We drove to Washington for the 4th of July and sure had fun spending time with our families there.
