Seattle


Sophie, Jake and I had the best Labor Day weekend. We had a fun road trip to Seattle and played with our good friends, Andrew, Janetta and Miles. Seattle is such a cool city and we had a great time exploring, eating fish and chips, visiting the locks, walking around Pike's Place Outdoor Market, and just hanging out with the Boone's. On our way home, we took a detour to the Oregon Coast and camped in a gorgeous spot by the mouth of the Columbia River. Sophie loves camping and she was so excited to sleep in a tent. That combined with playing in the ocean and she was one happy girl.

Janetta and I have been friends for years
and it was so fun playing and having a sleep-over, just like old times.
You are the best, Janetta!


Sophie was a great camper and we loved camping on the Oregon coast.



Sophie loved the beach even though it was a little chilly.
She ran all over in the water and also had fun playing with her shadow.

We wanted a picture together with our cute kids but they didn't like that idea.


We all went to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory for Sophie's birthday dinner and she was so happy when the waiters sang Happy Birthday to her.


Andrew, Miles and Janetta. You guys are wonderful!
Thanks for the fun weekend!

That sounds so fun. I think Sophie is so adorable in all of those pictures, and I haven't seen Janetta since high school so it was great to see pictures of her family too. I just gave Natalie my e-mail address because I'd love to get together with you two this month. I have Mondays off so they works best for me. Hopefully we can all work something out.
