Bunch of Cuties

We spent the night in Seattle with the dearest of friends and loved seeing this little bunch of kiddos all full of giggles.

What a special, memorable week you have given to us, Nonno and Nonna! Thank you for loving all of us so well and giving us such a wonderful week full of family time with you! We are constantly missing you from MN, so it means the world to us when we get to spend our days with you! From the bottomless boxes of cars to the delicious meals and treats, to the children's bedtime stories, chats on the deck, and opening your home to the chaos that can accompany us, plus all of your patience and love - we sure do miss it already! We Love You!

Snails

We took one last short walk on the beach at Nonno and Nonna's this morning and Bennett was beyond excited that he collected (and shortly thereafter safely released) over 30 snails. He was obsessed with finding rocks, shells, and other treasures on the beach during our entire trip.

Our Last Night

Nonno cooked up another delicious meal (see crab in a previous post) and we took in the views, snuggles, and each other's company during our last night on the island. Once it started to get chilly, we headed in for ice cream before putting the kids to bed and hanging more with these awesome parents of ours. What a wondeful trip we have had!
