August 17th we left our apartment in Rexburg, Idaho to head back over to Snohomish, Washington. (I know we have but a lot of miles on our car this summer, and we are done traveling until April 2012 when we graduate). While on our way to Snohomish we always stop in Spokane and stay with my aunt and uncle, this way it breaks up the trip and we don't have to do a 12 hour drive in one go. We had also planned to pick up my Grandma who was visiting and bring her back to Snohomish as well. When arriving in Spokane we decided to tour around Spokane and spend time with Grandma, Katie (my cousin), and her little boy Silas who was born in November and that we just met in July.
The start to the day was very relaxing and Grandma, Chris, and I walked around the block and just enjoyed being lazy. We then went to lunch with Katie, Silas, and Aunt Denise. After lunch Katie, Silas, Grandma, Chris, and I walked around the park in downtown Spokane. Here is a picture with Heather, Grandma, Katie, and Silas.

When the worlds fair came to Spokane they built this goat that has a vacuum suction to "eat" the garbage. I had never heard of this said goat, so we made a point to go and see him. Katie even dug through her purse for garbage so we could feed the goat. It was pretty cool!
Why is the goat eating Chris's hat?!
Also while in the park we went to see the big red wagon. When I had heard about this I didn't imagine it being this big. The handle bar was a slide and underneath were monkey bars.

He was a little nervous of the horse that was chasing him. We also had some very nummy ice cream. It was nice to walk around the park and see different things, but most important spending that time with family that you don't see all that often anymore.
