Long Beach, WA

Labor Day weekend Kent, Emma and I went camping with my family in Long Beach, WA.  It was an extremely long road trip for Emma and I, but we made it and had lots of fun visiting the beach and family.  I wish we could have brought the ocean and beach back to Pullman since Emma loves the beach so much.  I am pretty sure she could live in the sand forever.  While at the beach Emma made a new friend, flew her first kite (which happened to have a black and white cat on it, which looked exactly like Walle), she ate lots of watermelon, and almost got taken out by the waves.

She loves her some watermelon!

The s'more didn't quite make it all the way in her mouth!

Mmmmmmmm!

Adventures with Family and Friends

So, our visit with family and friends comes to an end.  Since we did so much I decided to post our last few adventures in one blog post.  We had lots of fun with our family and friends and look forward to our next visit.

 
 Tacoma Children's Museum:  My mom, Emma and I had tons of fun at the Tacoma Children's Museum with one of my best friends Lindsey, her mom Lori, and of course her two very handsome boys John and Peter.

Scenic Beach State Park:  After so much fun at home we need to spend some time relaxing during our visit.  Another best friend of mine Alyssa came over and we relaxed at the beach.

Pool Time:  Since we live so far away we do not get to spend very much time at Kent's grandparents house hanging out by the pool.  So, luckily this trip we met Papa and Grandma at the pool and had lots of fun playing with the cousins, eating popsicles, and splashing with Papa and Grandma.
