A Day in Spokane

On my birthday we decided to head to Spokane. Preston needed to check on the stores we are preparing to re-open there; so we spent half the day at the stores and then te rest of the day seeing a few sights!
We spent most of the time at riverfront park where we of course let the girls play at the little park there
I took Lorelai on the carousel in the park; it was built in 1909 and the tiger she rode is the only one on an active carousel in the world.
Reagan was all smiles all day as usual!

Also in the park is the world's larger radio flyer wagon, you can climb up into it
and slide down the handle. Lorelai wasn't too sure about that once she got to the top, but liked it once we convinced her to go down!

We also saw the waterfalls, but didn't get a good picture.
We checked out the mall downtown because let's be honest; shopping in the tri-cities is lacking a little bit!
We had dinner at the Old Spaghetti Factory which was delicious, but the girls were tired and restless at that point, so not only did we not take any pictures, we also ate as quickly as we could so we could get back on the road and head for home!
It was a great birthday, thanks to my wonderful husband and little girls complete with waffles and ice cream for breakfast and homemade pizookies for dessert when we got home that night! Yum!
