Memorial day weekend

Okay so it was weeks ago but I have had a lot of catching up to do. Seems now since I am working again, even if its only part time, I am so much busier and finding time to update this little blog has been pushed aside.

Memorial day weekend for us was a trip east over the mountains to twisp. Brians sister needed us to come help move her out of her apartment and so in the truck we piled and took our first long roadtrip.

The boys did great and they didnt even nap, I for sure thought they would.On our way over the mountains we stopped in to strech near the puget sound energy damn and what did we see when we pulled in?



you could even ring the bell!



Way cool!

After a few more hours we arrived in Twisp and stopped to see how much work was ahead of us in the packing department and set up a game plan. The boys got to meet Auntie Janice's horse, they were in love at first sight. i hope they dont think they will ever get a pet horse, maybe a dog, someday.





Then we headed to the hotel. First stop POOL! All Eli could talk about the whole drive there was the pool. This from a boy who cant swim and as of last year was scared of pools. So in we went.





He did well but is still scared. Hopefully this summer we can teach him how to swim.

We worked hard and got everything moved into storage and then it was time to head home again. One thing I love about living here in Washington is that it doesnt take but a short drive to see the most beautiful snow capped mountains. What a gorgeous drive we had over highway 20 as we headed for the home.





Once home we celebrated Memorial Day and it just wouldnt be Memorial day in Seattle with out a backyard BBQ in polar fleece!
