Originally, we had not planned on going anywhere for spring break but then I started to get the road trip itch (crazy I know with 3 kids & me pregnant). I just felt like if we didn't go anywhere for spring break, we would be stuck at home for quite a while, with soccer season & baby coming. So, being the best husband ever, Jason obliged my crazy wishes & last minute we packed up and headed to his parents house in Seattle on the Wednesday afternoon before Easter. His sister's family was already planning on being there so we knew it would be a party!
The road trip was great, the girls were amazing travelers, which made it especially worthwhile. The weather was spectacular...seriously, for those of you who have been to Seattle in March, know it can be so much less than spectacular. It was amazing, sunny & warm almost everyday.
The first day there, we ventured down to a cute children's museum in Tacoma (those pictures are on Jason's phone). Allow small, it was really fun. Abby spent almost the entire time with the rubber duckies in the water area. She went home nearly naked, she was so wet. The kids had a great time. We finished it off with a picnic lunch & headed back to G & G's house. With such great weather, the kids were able to play in the backyard whenever we were home. It was so, so nice.
Friday morning the men went golfing, along with Emily & Lauren. Jason was excited to show the girls the finer points of golf. They adored their daddy/daughter date! While the boys were gone, the ladies squeezed in a little shopping, always a good time.
Later that afternoon, Jason & I ran our girls down to Redondo Beach. I don't know that we've ever taken them there & it was fun to show them where we played as kids (& where we got engaged!!). They had a great time throwing rocks, finding shells & crabs. It was amazingly beautiful!!
Abby throwing rocks!
Abby was not really impressed with the crab.
Questing!
The Cherry Blossom trees were amazing, we couldn't resist a few pictures of the girls!
Sorry to Seattle friends we didn't get a chance to catch up with!!!
