June

June was a busy month. It started out with Dave's brother graduating from High School and the celebrations surrounding that. We love him--he is a really good kid.


The next morning we drove to Washington to visit my brother and his family. We were a little nervous about the 13 hour drive with Aliyah, but she did a FANTASTIC job. She only had a little crying session once! While in the Washington we...

went to a podunk logging festival....


Seattle...

We went to the Music Project museum (something like that)
Dave as an Avatar

and the boys in a band...you can see my nephew behind the drums--he was LOVING it, as were the grown men!


the coast...






had family pictures taken...



visited Mount St. Helens...


and saw Big Foot (Dave really wanted to get a picture taken with him because growing up at his house they had watched Harry and the Hendersons. When I told Dave I had never seen that movie we made sure to put it on our netflix queue. It was pretty good.)

and of course got sick (Dave and I have a tendency to get sick while we are on vacation; lame!)

We had birthdays...this is Dave's favorite dessert (and mine): nutella bars (thank you sister!)


And this is how we would try to keep Aliyah in her swaddle...fortunately she grew out of needing a swaddle on her own pretty quickly.

  2. Fun trip! We went to Seattle last summer and did a lot of the same things, even though I must admit we didn't get to see Bigfoot! We always get sick while we're on vacation too...what is up with that?!

  3. I think the bum picture turned out better than most of our face ones...that's why I put it up...and because we're hot like that.
