Washington: Day 1

Snoqualmie Falls—we stopped here on our way into the city.

The beach!  This is Seahurst Park on the Puget Sound, just south of Seattle.  The water was really cold, of course, but that didn’t stop the kids from wading.

Corinne started a shell collection and came back with a bag full of them.

It was a little windy, but the weather was actually sunnier and warmer than we expected.  (mid 60’s)

This was a good introduction to the beach for Hayley—no waves!   The kids all went to bed excited to explore the next day.  I love vacations!

Wow, looks like a beautiful location. What a fun place to get away together. You are so good at doing that with your family.

Mirien, I love the picture of you and Hayley. You look great!
