Trip to Virginia

Two weekends ago Chris went to the beach with his dad and brother for the second annual Masters fishing trip. Since he was going out of town Ethan and I headed for Virginia to see my brother and his family. We left Friday morning and got up there Friday mid afternoon without too much traffic or tears from the backseat. I was very thankful Ethan did really well on the drive up.

He was super excited to be out of the car and to have three fun playmates. They played hard all weekend. He and Liza are two months apart and they played well together. They took out the kitchen cabinets, played with refrigerator magnets, followed the big kids and played with a plethora of toys. Ethan also learned to climb the stairs in their house so he kept all the adults on their toes.



On Saturday morning we visited with Jonathan and Ann Webb and Maggie. Ann was Peter's 4th grade teacher and a family friend. She took the three of us to the beach in Costa Rica a couple times and we have seen her a couple times in Washington State. What a treat to see her and meet Jonathan and Maggie.

Saturday afternoon we went to some friends house to help them move. In the evening we went to a neighborhood movie night. So much fun.

Sunday we hung around the house and went to the park. Ethan fell asleep in the car so I hung out in the car while everyone else played. We went out for lunch and then came home and played. In the evening we watched Frozen before bedtime.

Monday we drove home and were excited to see daddy when we got home.

Thank you to Peter, Betsy, Sam, Marina and Liza for a wonderful weekend.

  1. He climbs the stairs well - thankfully there is a hand to steady him when he turns around or tries to turn around. He has an interesting way of crawling or he did when that video was taken.
