Day 8 - Snoqualmie Falls

We decided to take a field trip to Snoqualmie Falls. It was a beautiful day & we had fun walking the trails next to the falls.

********************************************

I let the kids have the small camera & take some photos of whatever thay wanted. The following photos are some of them.

Pretty good photos huh?

Washington Day 6 - Father's Day

Tony wasn't with us but he did get a Father's Day call from the kids. The kids made these cards for Great Grandpa Phipps for Father's Day.

From Adrienne.

From Eli.

While we were in church Great Great Grandma Morsing passed away. She was a sweet lady & I'm glad we got a chance to see her earlier in the week.

Eli drew this picture during church & Great Grandma Phipps asked if they could use it for the memorial bulletin. Of course he said yes & was happy that his artwork would be used for something so special.

Washington Day 4

We were getting ready for Rebecca & her girls to arrive at GGma & GGpa house. Adrienne wanted to help GGpa put the highchair together & clean it up for little Liv.

She really is a very good helper.

Washington day 3, Taking a ferry ride

Great Grandma Phipps needed to visit with her mother & usually took the ferry to get there. We all decided to go so we could see Great Great Grandma & take a ferry ride too.

Saying goodbye to Seattle as we sailed away.

It got a little breezy as we picked up speed.

My little reader stocking up on info about the area.

What part of snickers, m&m's, skittles etc. is actually healthy?

After we had a quick visit with GGGma Morsing we went to explore a nearby nursery while GGma Phipps visited a while longer. They had a lot of fish & water features that were fun for the kids to explore.

The kids are feeding the fish with Great Grandpa Phipps.

It's just so pretty!

We took ferry back home again. Hello Seattle!

My budding photgrapher took this photo of me.

We decided to go to the park down the street once we got home & take advantage of the swings.

Adrienne pretending to be grumpy. Pretty convincing huh?

They found this neat thing that spins you around like crazy. I tried it & almost couldn't walk afterwards.

Adrienne LOVED it!

Washington day 2

We hit the ground running in Washington. Grandma & Grandpa Phipps took us to Seattle first thing.

The kids were so excited to see the Space Needle poking up into the sky.

We're getting closer!

The kids enjoying the view from the top of the Needle.


We found a "W".

The music museum below the Space Needle had very interesting architecture.

It's very cold here.

Aahhh. This is much better. A great view & a nice warm cup of cocoa.
