Evergreen State of Mind
We just returned from a six day vacation to visit my parents at their home near Tacoma, Washington. I am madly in love with the Pacific Northwest. The mountains, the trees, the ocean, it fills all of my senses with ecstatic rejoicing.
The boys had only been there once before, at four months old for my grandfather’s funeral and Brad had never spent time there. We made a point of just being outside every day, soaking in the perfect weather and the beauty of nature. I loved sharing it all with my family and how much they loved it, too.
We enjoyed the zoo, an old fur trading fort, three beaches, an incredible seafood brunch buffet, three playgrounds, Transformer movies, and lots of evergreens.
I have to say that there isn’t much in life more fun then seeing your parents be grandparents. I was just as often brought to tears of happiness seeing the boys with my parents as I was at the beauty of the place.
Here are a few images from the trip with a few more to come in a few days. I may even pull together some of the video Brad took.

Great pics. They are so cute! I need to take shane out that way. He’s never been. It truly is gorgeous and relaxing out there
