US holiday was a blast!!!

As many of you know, we were in the states visiting my family just recently. We were gone for a month, which was really nice. We had a great time catching up with everyone as well as making a lot of fun memories.

We took a week and went down to LA to Disneyland. My sister, brother-in-law, and 5 month old niece went with us as well and we had so much fun. We had a 5 day pass to Disneyland and California Adventure so we really got to enjoy it all and not rush. Caleb was not a fan of many rides...but loved getting all the character's signatures. Megan was a fan of whatever ride she was able to go on, but was a little leery of the characters. She was fine as long as mommy or daddy were holding her. All in all it was a great time though.

We went back up to Seattle and enjoyed the rest of the time there during which i helped to host a baby shower for one of my sisters and a surprise party for my mom for her 60th birthday. We mostly spent time with family, while also seeing some close friends. We are so thankful for the time we had there. God has been so good and blessed us more than we could imagine. It's a huge blessing when we get to go back and visit family. I am so thankful for the MANY times we've been able to be back.
