Pictures from my trip to Seattle & Portland last month. My mom and I visited Kate in Seattle and drove to Portland for a few days. It was SUCH a great trip. I still can't believe all the stuff we crammed into 5 days. Space Needle, underground tour of Seattle, Freemont troll, EMP Museum, duck boat tour, water/plane tour of the Seattle area, chocolate factory tour, huge REI store, Pike Place Market, Multnutmah Falls, Snoqualmie Falls, downtown Portland, gondola ride in Portland, Portland Japanese Gardens...etc. Not to mention the great meals and the shear beauty of the northwest. So nice of Eric to let me go and for him to stay home with the kids!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Finally made Eric take a picture of me, so that the kids will know I'm not forbidden from being in photos :) I prefer to be on the other end of the camera.

Some more pictures of the kids having a blast playing in the backyard, this time they are better quality pics from my actual camera. I have gotten quite lazy lately and have just been using my phone, so it was fun to use the "real" one again.
