Where do you want to go?

I can't tell you how many times Mia asks when we're going to Seattle.

On her cartoons this morning, they asked, "Where do you want to go on a trip?"  You guessed it!  Mia yelled, "SEATTLE!"

Most of you know that Seattle has been on our radar for years, and if you haven't heard, we finally pulled the trigger and bought a condo up there!  After much deliberation and discussion, Travis came to the conclusion that moving to Seattle wasn't realistic at this time and that we are "pretty comfortable here."  Ahhhh....sigh.  I never thought I would hear those words!  So, the condo is the perfect alternative and gives us a place to go and a place to rent when we're not there.  Our closing date is scheduled for mid-June. 

More photos to come...but here is a sneak peek. :)

Play Hard, Sleep Hard

Finally!  It's summertime (I think)...

This picture is what I've been waiting for!

Zoe is now old enough to sit and play with her sister and these two are as thick as thieves.  There are many times throughout the day that Mia will make funny faces or play games with Zoe, just to make her laugh.  It's darling to see how close they already are.  This is exactly what I thought it would be to have a sister.

Even Beagles Like Pillow Pets, Too!

It's a pillow, it's a pet...it's a

PILLOW FOR YOUR PET!

Hoppy Easter!

Colored eggs, Easter egg hunts, and candy...even Zoe got into the holiday and loved playing with the plastic eggs.  It's always a several day event that usually starts mid-week with the school Easter party and then continues on throughout the weekend.  This year, Mia managed to get in 3 egg hunts and several celebrations.  I just loved the color-stained fingers after coloring eggs!  I don't think Mia had seen a hard boiled egg and upon shoving the egg (shell and all) in her mouth, I realized she didn't know how to eat one either.

It snowed the week of Easter and the week after.  We're lucky we got in a couple days without wet weather to enjoy the egg hunts outside!

Mia's favorite Easter basket goodies were the silly bands (plastic shaped bracelets) and they both loved the sweet gifts from Aunt Ida, our neighbor "Grandma Becky" and Trish's mother-in-law "Grandma Patty."  We hope you enjoyed your Easter holiday just as much.
