So with the assistance of my fabulous niece, the kids and I went on a roadtrip up north to see the family. It was a great week spent with people we love so much!
We made a stop in Oregon to see my precious friend Suzy and her boys!
This is me and my 3 kids conquering a hotel experience just the 4 of us. You should have seen us on our venture to the ice machine, I'm sure we were quite entertaining!
Reid loves to wave hi to the camera. Oh this boy is simply too cute!
S'mores at the Crabtrees after rootbeer floats? Why not, it's vacation right!
Me and my WA siblings at beautiful Alki
As you can see, we had fabulous weather!
Aquarium souvenirs...
It was so fun to share a day on Lake Meridian with my kids, a place so full of memories for me, 4th of July's, sunny Sunday afternoons with friends, etc. Plus, it was quite funny to see that Rylin was up for tubing before her typically fearless sister.
Mt. Rainier still takes my breath away! Nothing against Shasta, but this mountain seems to just fill the sky.
We went to a fun & interesting park, and we turned this stage into an entertaining game of charades and song performances, etc.
There's so much I loved about our trip and so much that is not captured in these pictures. I was a little skeptical about taking my kids (who typically hate car rides) on such a long trip without Kevin. But I'm so thankful he encouraged me to go, and that Allie was willing to come and be the one in the car passing snacks back and forth, helping on bathroom stops and so much more, and that all the family made time to simply hang out with us! We love you!
