Well, as any of you out there know (at least those of you that still check our blog), it's been quite a while since I posted. I'm not going to blame it on anything other than pure laziness. But, hopefully this new post will catch up for the last couple of months. I think my last post was just after Mother's day. Just after Memorial Day weekend, we took a family trip and went back up to the Emerald City (Seattle for those of you that don't know) and we had a surprisingly great time. I really don't get too excited about traveling with small children so I was really not looking forward to the trip with Jackson, especially since he really doesn't sleep anywhere but his crib. But, we forged ahead...pack n' play, car seats, diaper bag, bags, and all. Even though we lived there, we did the tourist thing and stayed in Seattle for a couple of days and then spent the rest of our time up there with Ray's family. Kaden was so easy to travel with and had a great time. Despite my hesitations and expectations, Jackson was great...just as long as we got him his naps! Anyway, enjoy the pictures!

So that was our trip in a nutshell. Ray and Kaden are going back up in August for a family reunion at his parent's house on Lake Morton but Jackson and I will stay home and maybe hit the family reunion next year. I'm a little (okay a lot) nervous to let them go without me but I'm sure they will be fine and travel safely. Kaden is so excited to go back up and swim in the lake and go down the slide on grandma & grandpa's floating dock.
