Kenji and Sakura are here! We blew up the big inflatable slide I got for my birthday and had tons of fun on it.



Then we had dinner outside, which I love doing when we have guests.

We found out there was going to be a roller coaster at the West Linn Fair this year! So of course, I had to go. And then…it was broken down the whole time!
But we still had lots of fun. My crowning achievement was riding the Freak Out. I was sooooo scared. It was the scariest ride there. It took me a few false starts, but I did it! And I freaking loved it!
When Kenji visits in the spring or summer, of course we have to go to Oaks Park! It was super fun, as always.
We took Kenji and Sakura to Frog Pond Farm in Wilsonville. It was really fun!
There were a bunch of animals to pet and feed.
Even CAMELS?! By the way, they immediately stole our food cup. Judging from the many food cups on the ground, I think they do that a lot.
Plus, there were games, slides, and even a big maze.
One of our very favorite things, though, was rolling around this huge hamster wheel. Kenji and I know how to have fun!
Kenji and I celebrated my 10th birthday at the Great Wolf Lodge!!!
There was so much to do there. First, we hit the arcade.
Then we went into the Moonstone Mine and discovered gemstones with a sluice.
Then we went to the waterpark, OF COURSE.
And there were so many other things! A dance party, arts and crafts, gigantic desserts, glow-in-the-dark mini golf, and a magical scavenger hunt called MagiQuest.
It was so freaking fun! I can’t wait to do it again.
