Abby and Jen visit, part 1

The yummy gum wall in Pike Place

The traditional places to stop (original starbucks)

We were playing a game where Daddy and HG would run up ahead and then “scare” me. She thought it was hilarious!

Can you tell she was born near Jersey shores?? :) Funny thing is though, is that Tenley genuinely likes to wear the sunglasses. Not so much play with them, but does her best to put them on herself and then leaves them there.

We spent a day up in Rainier, which was a blast

Sweet Jen and Abby

a cool bridge

Abby graciously entertained the girls during the day. Both Jen and Abby were amazingly fantastic with the girls. Hannah Gray has continued to ask, “where’d my friends go?” :)

Hannah Gray loved, loved, loved the ride

getting sleepy, but still watching out for “aminals” with her “noculars”

Girls’ morning out

A couple weeks ago, I joined two of my friends from Bible study to go on a morning hike. We left my house at 6 and arrived in the mountains shortly after 7. We hiked up to Bridal falls (they look like a veil with how heavily they flow over the top) and then up to the lake that feeds the falls. It was GORGEOUS or “definitely not ugly” as we kept saying. :)

Kendall and Norah

and i was there too, I promise. This was the bridge where we stopped to eat our lunches!!! And our view from sitting on that bridge was….

this snow covered mountain lake that was a perfect reflection of the mountains. Beautiful!!

Hannah Gray and her buddy

After dinner one night, Tuk was in one of his usual spot when we eat and Hannah Gray grabbed a book and joined him. She went on to thoroughly read her books to her and Tuk didn’t seem to mind one bit!

More random

Tenley has done it! We moved her mattress done months ago, just in case, and this particular day I walked in to a standing Tenley!! :)

HG after a daddy date to krispie creme… mmmm
