On the first of June we embarked on a journey to visit friends and family in Washington and Canada. We arrived at the airport bright and early for Jed's first airplane ride... exciting! He did really good considering he is the worst possible age for sleeping during the flight! We flew into Seattle which is only 30 minutes north of Auburn.
We had SO MUCH FUN!!! We did all kinds of outdoor activities... shooting guns, riding dirt bikes, walking... we watched my cousin graduate from 8th grade... toured Seattle (coming soon on a post) and Jesse even got to drive Grandpa's Corvette!
My grandparents have an AMAZING motor home. They live in southern California 1/2 of the year and drive it up to Auburn and into their living room (where the motor home acts as their bedroom) for the second 1/2 of the year. It is a beautiful set up!
For some perspective we took a picture of Jed next to Great Grandpa's shiny wheels!!!
Here is Jed and Great Grandpa on his Harley Davidson... Great Grandpa looooooved it!
Here is a picture of my mom, her parents, her sister (aunt Debbie) and uncle Ron, Ron's parents, Ron and Debbie's kids Jonathan and Chandler and of course, Jesse, Jed and me.
Jesse and I were playing a scene out of Mr. and Mrs. Smith... I wanted the big gun!
Riding Dirt Bikes around the property was so fun... I as a little intimidated at first but got more comfortable!
My Cousin Jonathan is so great at riding bikes... he is 16 and rides all around the property. My uncle is the principal of the Jr. High/Elementary school that is on the property of Auburn Adventist Academy. So the property they live on is all connected with the school.
Grandpa found an Indianapolis 500 pin ball machine. He is a car collector and has collected 4 out of 6 of the Indianapolis 500 Corvette pace cars. So when he saw this machine he had to get it. It was a ton of fun! Jesse (of course) got one of the high scores and was so proud. Jed loved watching the lights go off!
Great grandma, grandma and Jed... great grandma was in heaven playing with Jed! She gave us a CD with sweet music that Jed fell in love with. He listened (and slept) to it all the way to Vancouver and back!
Eating some yummy food with auntie, grandma and great grandma.
My grandpa said I wasn't holding the gun correctly so I posed for the camera... this is what came out!... looks good to me!
The boys and their guns.
We absolutely loved hanging with the family! It was so lush and green in Washington and we plan on making a return trip soon!
