Western WA Tour


Little Charlie and I just got back from our tour of Western Washington. I've got photos from most of our stops. Friday all 3 of us headed to Ellensburg to stay with Aunt Katie and Uncle Cage for a night. Sorry no photos, you'll have to take my word for it.

Saturday morning we took off early and headed to the ferry. Not only was this Charlie's first ferry ride but it was his first ferry ride with Krusty. I think its necessary at this point to say that Krusty and Maleah were on time to our meeting place...they are in no way responsible for us missing the ferry by 1 car. We prefer to blame McDonalds strict policy of not surving burgers until 11 on Saturdays. And by blame McDonalds I actually mean blame Matt for standing in McDonalds from 10:30 to 11:00 waiting for someone to make him a hamburer instead of an Egg McMuffin.

Moving on. So while on Orcas Matt, Krusty, Maleah and I ate oysters, drank, hiked (and by hiked I mean walked to a view spot and agreed to call it a day), drank, and played with Charlie. Below are a couple photos of our "hike".


Krusty and Maleah took off on the 3rd so we celebrated the 4th with my family. For some vain reason there are no photos of them. Just more of us...


So on Wednesday we packed up and headed back to the ferry. We had to get Matt to the airport so he could work the rest of the week to keep food and breastmilk on the table for little Charlie and me.

After dropping Matt off at Seatac we headed to Tacoma to stay with Brenda. See photo.

We stayed with B for 3 nights and she totally spoiled us. We had a gift basket waiting for us, homeade lasagna, 3 Netflix to choose from. Frankly it was hard to leave.

While staying with B we headed up to Mill Creek for an evening to see some friends from high school. Below is a photo of Lori, Kelly, me, Charlie, Katie and Amber. It was good to see everyone and hear what they've been up to. Little Lori is 5 months pregers. Can't wait to meet Baby Dyk!

So on Saturday we picked up Aunt Charlotte and Uncle Justin from the airport. Above are a few photos of them playing with the baby. On a side note Aunt Char is 2 months prego with a cousin for Charlie. Hopefully she doesn't kill me for saying that on the internet. Hopefully no one's reading to closely and I won't get in trouble for that.

The last official stop was in Shoreline to see Aunt Sue, Uncle Greg, Uncle Jim and Aunt Carla. No photos to prove this stop really happend but trust me it did.

So that was Charlie's trip to Western WA. Hope you enjoyed the photos!

I'm glad I got to witness part of Charlie's first whirlwind tour of Western Washington (or "God's Country" according to my grandparents). Love the blog, by the way. What a great idea! Although I'm not sure how much of a baby commercial it is for me...
