Hello everyone!!! Sorry it has taken me so long to blog... we have been home a week, enjoying the final days of summer break and getting ready for school to start!!! The kids and I had a great time during our annual summer trip to Washington. We missed having Jody with us, but I think he got a lot of work done while we were out of town and we were so excited to see him when we got home. 

Here is a quick round-up of our trip; we visited the "Palm Springs of Washington" (Yakima?!) with my brother Todd and his family, Tucker and I hiked down to the bottom of Snoqulamie Falls, we made a trip down to Portland to catch up with UPS friends and their families and my sister Dido, went for a sail in Gig Harbor (thanks uncle Nick and aunt Julie!), had a picnic at Point Defiance Zoo (thanks Linda!), spent a beautiful day at the ocean with the Garnsey group, and walked through Pike Place Market with the Saharic girls. What a great vacation!!!

It was so great to see everyone... thanks for taking time to meet up with us the Hawley's, the DeWeese's, the Garnsey's, the Hannigan's, the Hoover's, the Horner's, Katie, Dido & Rick, Kami, the DiRe's, the Beckman's, the Saharic's and of course my mom and my dad!!!   

We packed a lot into our trip, it was so hard to narrow down the pictures. Above are a few of our favorites!
