Thanksgiving adventure

We were able to check a few things off our California bucket list after this past week.  We made the trek up north to Washington and drove through Oregon.  Oregon was a state Jayson and I both were anxious to see and it did not disappoint.  We had a great Thanksgiving spend with family friends in Issaquah, WA and before making the drive back home we took in a few of the sights in Seattle.  Although the drive was long the kiddos did great and we only had a few minor meltdowns.  Nothing a little candy couldn't fix.

Jack enjoyed his Thanksgiving feast party!

 November Field trip to Children's Museum of the Sierra 

This was such a cute little mountain town museum.

Living the dream of driving a firetruck.

This air machine that made the beach balls float was his favorite.
 He and one of his buddies just couldn't get enough!

Sundial Bridge in Redding, CA

This was our get out and stretch stop after being in the car for 5 hours.

Issaquah, Washington

A little cold doesn't keep this one from wearing shorts.

Snoqualmie falls

A few of my favorite girls!

You can somewhat see the waterfall in this picture,

Seattle

Once Ellie spotted The Seattle Great Wheel, we had to go on it.

It was definitely a cool way to see the city.

We made a stop at Pike Place Market.

Ellie was really curious about these fish.

I just missed a picture opportunity where the kids and
Jayson got scared by the fish moving. 

Decorating the tree

That bottom half sure looked good, but I had to even it out.

My little helpers were more than ready to decorate!
