The Powells visit

Once again, sorry for the weird order of the pictures. I need to figure out what's going on. Anyway...

We were so happy that the Powells came to visit us for a week!!!! We had such a good time and it was so fun getting to know Madelyn and Audrey a bit more. I loved seeing the kids interact, having time to hang out with Emily and Jason, and have our kids get to know more of their family. It was such a great week.

 Hazel actually let go of my hand to hold Madelyn's hand. If you know Hazel, you know that that's amazing! She's very clingy. 

 On the ferry to Port Townsend. We've been wanting to go for a long time, but it's hard to find time with all that's going on. Thankfully, having family in town encourages us to get out more too!

 We found a little park in Port Townsend. Hazel loved the slide!

 Jude loved the steering wheel...

 ...and the slide.

 Jude was very tired and actually fell sleep in the stroller after playing at the park. This is a very rare occurrence. 

 The cousins having a picnic in Hazel's room.

 Hazel loves the water and doesn't care at all that it's freezing cold. She would've walked right in if I would've let her.

 Emily and Audrey at the beach.

 Madelyn, Jason and Jude.

 Taking a snack break.

 All the black shells along the water are mussels. Whoa. 

 Audrey was having a rough time here. That's what a time change and cutting a tooth will do to you!

 Hazel and Madelyn.

 Madelyn and Audrey were great with Nona. I loved that they liked to entertain her so much! 

 Jude learned to smile for the camera. Woohoo!!!!!!!

 Silly Madelyn.

 "This ferry ride is so fun!"

The kids loved riding on the ferry and I'm so glad we finally went to Port Townsend. It'd definitely be easier to navigate without 2 double strollers, but it was fun nonetheless. I am looking forward to going back without kids someday. That's a big someday. :)

Thank you Powell family for taking the time to visit us. We loved having you and can't wait to see you again!
