to the ocean and beyond

You have been on so many journeys in your little short life. The trips to the outside world beyond Benson Lake include:

1. Olympia (2x)
2. Tacoma (3x)
3. Seattle (2 Mariner games + downtown shopping trip)
4. Bainbridge Island (3x)
5. Portland (via train)

Luckily, Aunt Molly has been able to go with us on most of the trips which is such a help!

So today we added the ocean and Pacific Beach to our journey list. We didn't put our toes in the sand or kick our feet in the water but we looked at it. We were on the coast for a summer picnic with my PEO sisters. They loved all over you. You got passed from grandma to grandma -- oh they are so in love with you. I also passed around your birthstory which they read over and weeped over and smiled over. You are such our miracle baby. Oh the places you'll go!
