Last few days in Washington

Washington has been a blast! It's always nice to visit with Family, and Friends. Even though I know we will be back in a few weeks for Christmas I'm still sad to leave.

During the last few days we did a a lot of fun things.

Tessa stayed with Grandma and Grandpa for the weekend and Kyle and I went to my favorite place...Harstine Island. As much as I miss Tessa when we are gone, its always nice to get away.

It's so beautiful! Lots and lots of trees!

Big ol jelly fish that got caught on a tree.

Back in Washington

We are spending the next couple weeks in Washington visiting family and hanging out. Today we went to Saltars Point and Sunnyside beach.

Halloween

This year was a lot different than last year. Tessa could actually help with the pumpkins and go "Trick-or-treating" She had a blast.

We had our friends over to carve pumpkins

kids+messy pumpkins= diapers only!

Tessa LOVED wearing her costume! She wanted to wear it since the second we got it. *Thanks Christy* :)

A walk in the canyon

We went for a walk up Spanish Fork Canyon to look at the pretty leaves, and got some cute pics on the way.

The Zoo

Kyle had the day off so we decided to take Tes to the Zoo. Boy did she had a blast. It was alot different than last year. Last year she wanted to stay in the stroller and relax and sleep. This time she was miss independent. She didnt want anything to do with us or her stroller. She thought the animals were great! I have been working with her alot with all the animal sounds so it was cute when she made monkey noises when she saw monkies. But everything else she barked at. Super cute.

Getting ready for the train to take off.
