Why do wasps want to be in my hair?


On our first day of Spring Break we went on a hike and packed in a picnic. Sweet little Kennedy felt something in her hair and shoed it away only to be stung by the culprit wasp. Immediatly the howls began. The next day while at work, I was summoned home by a very upset Griffin. Her hand had swelled up and was hard to the touch. She complained of itchiness and couldn't move her fingers. He was worried that she was having an allergic reaction. On day 3 Todd called her pediatrition who said to mark with a pen where the swelling ended and wanted her to come in. We hate wasps!!








I believe we had one nice day of weather and that was on Thursday. After loading the bikes in the truck we parked at Omsi and rode across East Esplande to the Steel Bridge. Played in the Salmon Street Fountain, fed the birds and rode to Spaghetti Factory and had a yummy dinner. Rode back along the waterfront back to Omsi, which took about 30 min. Griffin and Camdyn are great little riders. It was probably too far for Kennedy plus she had a gimp hand so she rode in the trailer. We all saw a 7 pm show at OMSI--Grand Canyon Adventure (even Brody did great). Then walked along the water and looked at the beautiful city lights of Portland. Aren't I lucky to live in my favorite city?

What a fun adventure!! I can picture your day perfectly. Utah has it's draws and perks, but nothing that can be done in such close proximity where we could park the car in the same place and spend a whole day going from adventure to adventure. I'm so glad you're taking advantage of it :)

Stacey you are such a good mom and always doing so much with your family. We tried to have a fun trip with our kids to Zermatt and it didn't go so great. I gave Rachel a bloody nose (by accident...kind of) before we left and it was down hill from there. I would say that things will get harder when your kids are teenagers, but they probably won't for you.
