On Day 3, we took advantage of the breakfast at the hotel and the kids went for another swim before we checked out. Then we packed it up and headed towards Seattle. Our friend, Kelly, texted me and said it […]
We got up on Day 2 to this view outside our window… …then we got dressed and headed to breakfast. After filling up at the buffet, we spent some money at the gift shop. The kids each got a stuffed […]
Last week we went on vacation to the Seattle, Washington area. I will now bore you with our vacation pictures. ********** We started out from the airport during a thunderstorm, which is always a good way to have your VERY […]
