Redmond

A quick little trip... this time to my friend, Christie's family's house in Redmond. Christie and I have been friends since preschool, and it's so fun to watch our own kids play together.

I could've spent all summer sitting on the deck looking out at the view. It was so quiet and peaceful... very relaxing. Whether in the morning with a cup of coffee, or evening with a book and a glass of wine. This spot was good for my soul.

The kids could've spent all summer playing with Daegan. Ali loved the ball tossing game, and Meri loved playing in (or near) the wading pool. They had an entire "restaurant" set up and served Christie and me all kinds of goodies. Of course, when they weren't playing outside, they were playing inside. They had all kinds of cities and towns set up with all of the Barbies, Pollys, "Mighty World" characters and other action figures. (Meri was really into all of the Mighty World toys... we might have to think about tracking some down for her birthday.)

We went to a great pizza place one night. The girls thought it had the best play place they had ever seen! After dinner, we walked around Wal-Mart checking out all of the toys we wished we had. :)
It was beautiful and warm while we were there... (it started raining as soon as we came home!) the girls and I were sad to leave!
