As I post this, I am realizing I don't have a single photo of Abby with Grandpa Dennis or any others from the Vancouver trip...oops! I always thought I took too many pictures. I guess now that Abby's here, I'd better step it up! She hit a big milestone while visiting Grandma Karla...she rolled over from her tummy to her back!! And, I was able to get it on film.
Next up on the trip, we drove to Ephrata, WA to visit my family. It was a 5 hr drive and we weren't sure how Abby would do. So, we set off at noon, not knowing how long it would take us. As we pulled into my parent's driveway at 5pm, Abby made her first peep. Yep, she slept the ENTIRE trip! It was like a mini-vacation for Mom and Dad...ha ha Here's Abby with Papa (whom she had just finally met!):
We spent the week at the lake and Abby got lots of snuggles from Grammie, Aunt Jennifer and cousin McCall...and, of course, Mommy and Daddy!
While in Ephrata, we went to Basin Summer Sounds, which is a really fun music festival. We spent all day downtown Saturday and Abby enjoyed lounging with Daddy in the grass and listening to the music.
Next up, Seattle. We decided to take Abby to Seattle to see our friends, who now live in Alaska, who were in town. I love this city! The weather was absolutely perfect and we enjoyed 3 days of walking around and enjoying this beautiful city. Abby got to see Pike Place Market:
Take her first trip (of many!) to the Seattle Aquarium:
And, Gasworks Park:
We had a wonderful side trip and it was great to see our friends. Abby and Kaden aren't quite sure what to think of each other just yet...
We dropped Rian off at the airport and went back to Ephrata for one more week. Here are a couple more of my favorite pictures from our time in WA:
Grammie came back to Buffalo with us for a week since Rian was at training camp. Once again, Abby did great on our LONG trip home!
It was so fun to see everyone but a VERY busy month! Looking forward to the day we get to move back to the beautiful Pacific NW...
