The kids and I got to fly to Washington for spring break.

I had not flown alone with these 4 since Ruby was one.  Let me say, it was a breeze compared to previous flights alone with these 4.  This getting older thing isn’t always so bad.  

Having a Nintendo Switch didn’t hurt either.  

The point of the trip was to hang out with cousins, grandparents, great grandmas and more cousins.  We accomplished all of the above.  

I don’t think these kids fought at all, they were in heaven.  

Meeting our newest cousin, Baby Jack, was an obvious highlight. 

Pop-Pop saved Christopher’s old powerwheel.  It was a huge hit. 

We went to Marine park to find crabs.

Always entertaining.  

There was always lots of screaming and excitement when a large rock got turned over and the crabs starting scurrying in all directions.  

Always in the search for a tree to climb.  

We got to celebrate Easter with everyone.  


You can’t beat Grandma B.’s backyard for an Easter Egg Hunt.  

Touch Tank is always a must visit Bellingham location.

Lots of Northwest Parks.


Utah parks don’t quite have views like this.  

Or quite so many trees. :) 

And of course walks on the trails around my parents house. 


It was good to be back home, I think it was my longest absence yet.  My soul needed a little pacific northwest.  


and a lot of family time too.  

Glad they don’t mind when we invade their space with our chaos.
