Yes Another Trip

Last weekend I went to Washington to visit Aaron, Jen, Morgan and Braylen. It is beautiful country there, with the tall trees and green everywhere. It never even rained and the sun shined all weekend. Morgan was very exited to see me and the first day I was there she was right by my side loving on me. Braylen was a little shy and I think I only got one hug and kiss out of him but everytime he saw me it was, "Hi Aweesa" in his deep voice. They are both such fun and imiginative kids. It was great to be around them.



Jen and the kids took me to Snoqualmie Falls which is very close to their home. It was very beautiful. We also stopped to see the train museum. Braylen is fascinated with trains so he was in heaven.





Jen and I took an overnight trip to see the town of Forks, where the book Twilight is set. Its a very quiet and small town nestled in the mountain. It was about 4 hours from their home along with a ferry ride.




Jen was great and booked us a Twilight themed room at the hotel. All for the effect right. We explored the town and came to the quick conclusion that they did not use any part of the town for the movie. That bummed us out but we still enjoyed our time and had a lot of laughs. There were 2 home designated as the Swan home and Cullen home that we drove by. We drove down to La Push beach but it was windy so we did not spend to much time.




The next morning we went to the Hoh Rainforest it was beautiful. The trees were very tall and moss was growing over everything.






Another day we went to downtown Seattle and walked around the Pike Street Market. They sell fish, fish, and more fish along with fruit/vegetables and gorgeous bouquets of flowers. We also went up to the Space Needle and were able to see the city for a different vantage point.

It was yet again another amazing trip and I cannot wait to get back there soon. Thanks Aaron, Jen, Morgan, and Braylen for a very fun and eventful weekend.

Happy Birthday to the Best Sister



Annmarie has always been a kind, loving, and fun sister to me. I am so grateful to have her as my sister. We probably were not the normal sisters growing up because we always got along. We may have had our tiffs with another but that never got in the way with what matter the most to us which was our friendship. She is my best friend. Growing up with four brothers was always an adventure but I always had my sister to turn to. We shared a room until she got married and I will always remember those times with each other. I think she got the best gift for her birthday this year, Kendall. Annmarie is such an awesome mother which I always knew she would be and I love to see her interact with Kendall. So Annmarie, thanks for being my sister I would not trade you for the world.
