Friday

cross country trip

pat was in a wedding that weekend in seattle.  while flying across the country with a 5 month old is quite an adventure, we had a fabulous time.  

laurel did a great job.

although she didn't sleep as much as we would've liked her to on that 5 1/2 hour flight from atlanta to seattle.

she loves looking out the window.  

is every baby this curious?

we finally got to meet miss sophie ritzmann.  her daddy, josh, and pat were roommates at the air force academy many moons ago.

that's pretty darn cute, if you ask me.


it was cold in seattle!  this carolina girl wasn't ready for that, but we survived.

pat went to a mariner's game one night.  here he is with brent (the groom) and ritz

sophie wasn't REALLY trying to eat laurel... 

getting a bottle at the reception from daddy.  

she was SUCH a trooper.  just rolled with the punches.  on the other hand, the time difference just about killed mommy...

happy girl with our good friend, jess jones

mornin!

here we are with ritz, krista, sophie, and the newlyweds, brent and lisa stark

on sunday afternoon we got to visit with david and esther still in tacoma.  their son, tom, is one of pat's best friends from the academy and pilot training.  we love this family!
 
the view from their house.  not bad, huh?
