We got up at 3:30AM and made the 105 mile trip in the dark early morning hours. Not much traffic at that hour, thats for sure. Got to our parking spot and made the 5 AM shuttle to the airport. The security check-in wasn't too bad either.
After a 2 hour flight on Alaskan Airlines, we landed at the Pacific Northwest's rainy Sea-tac Airport. Our son Tim was there to pick us up. Back to his house we went.
It was good to see the grandsons Rome and Ryker after just 3.5 months.
Us and Rome.
Us and Ryker.
Our oldest daughter, Candy drove up from Vancouver. We all got together and opened a couple of gifts for Ry.
We then took a trip over Stevens Pass to Leavenworth, WA, the Bavarian Village. We stayed at the Fairbridge Inn. Our youngest daughter, Kim drove up from Pasco.
And Erik (grandson)
and Oli (great grandson)
came over from Wenatchee as well.
Kim was working and had to go back, but the 6 of us spent the night there. We had a busy evening.
A walk around town.
Can you tell it is Fall?
Leavenworth is getting ready for Christmas too.
The boys sure got along great.
Candy & the boys.
Visiting the Hat Shoppe.
What a day..... and night.
Then back to Mill Creek (Tim & Shannon's house) and Donna and Rome made a couple of pumpkin pies.
We had an early Thanksgiving dinner. Yum, yum.
Shannon's Dad, Scott, came over and we had a '1st' birthday party for Ryker. He got lots of goodies and we all had a great time.
Here is Rome doing his 'photo bomb' thing.
Cute!
Later Ry had his 1st birthday cake. What fun that was!
While visiting, we got to watch the boys while Tim & Shannon took off for a few 'date nights'. They are easy to watch and very well behaved. We played 'Transformers'.
On Tuesday, Veterans Day, we flew back to Arizona and our home on wheels. We did stop off at Costco in Las Vegas and picked up a few things.
A toast to all our Veterans.....
A great trip, good visiting family, but also good to be home.
What dolls those grandkids are! How nice you got a visit and had lots of fun!
