My parents have begun an awesome tradition with their grandchildren... A special trip once the child turns 10, and because we have so many kids in a row between me and my sister, they are going in pairs as soon as one turns 10 they go with the next youngest.
So... drumroll please! Marin, being the oldest Newell grandchild and her sister Madeline, got to be the first to pair up with Nana & Grandpa for an 8 day trip to Idaho (Silverwood Theme Park). They road tripped all the way from Camano Island to Portland, to pick up the girls, then drove all day with them to Idaho, got settled in a condo for the week, then proceeded to have the most fun week ever! They had a day at the water park, a day at the amusement park, a boat cruise on Lake Coeur d'Alene, a fun day hike, and a couple days at home swimming in the condo pool, playing mini-golf & lawn checkers, and exploring the grounds with all their fun activities ;)
The girls did so great, and my parents will probably need to sleep for a week to regain their strength. We are so blessed with such amazing grandparents for our kids!
