Vacay, s'il vous plait!

Pin It Now!

{Photo overload warning!} Hello lovelies!! We recently took our first family vacay (yes, first!) and got to head up to the beeeeeeeautiful Pacific North West for a few days! YAY!  Hubby and I hadn't been on vacay since the year we got married so needless to say we were waaaaaay overdue for some r+r ;)

I was super nervous for Ayden's first flight.  Nobody wants to be that family with that kid on the plane.  Thankfully he was 100% perfect.  He was so excited to get on the plane that he took off running down the jetway and grabbed a stewardess' hand and waltzed onto the plane like he owned the joint, announcing "I go in da skyyyyyy!!"  When we touched down in Bellingham he said "Das fun!"  That kid cracks me up.  The flight home wasn't quite as exciting for him, but he did great about 95% of the time, so we'll take it.

If you follow me on Insta or SnapChat you probably saw some of the fun and beauty I posted while we were in WA.  There is nothing like the gorgeous green PNW!!  Yes, it rained, but we also got some bright sunshine and warm Spring weather, too.

My parents live across the street from a golf course, so Hubby got to get some club time in with the guys on Monday! (they got rained on for a good 20 mins.  Die-hard golfers are a different kind of crazy ;) )  We visited a friend's new/still-under-construction home and Ayden got to drive a tractor which totally made his life.  We also got to ride in a firetruck and tour the fire house in Birch Bay, so as you can imagine, Ayden was super stoked.  He's a truck fanatic, that one.  A boy's boy through and through!

My parents got some solid quality time in with the munchkin, which was totally priceless.  I'm so glad they got to spend time with him and get in some good snuggles.  Ayden is obsessed with them and is still asking for GrammaPop!  The first thing he said every morning when he woke up during our trip was "I go see Gramma!!"  We'd open the bedroom door and he would bolt into the living room to go find my mom - and we would go back to sleep.  WINNING ;)

We had a fabulous trip and time went way too fast, of course.  Here's a little photo overload/vacay inspiration for you.  Put Washington on your must-see list!  XO
