We flew as a family of four for the first time to Seattle to celebrate the wedding for Mr. and Mrs. Hahn (yay!) and got to stay for a little vacation.
The trip started out with us looking like crazy people at the airport. A toddler, a baby, a stroller, two carseats, three duffle bags, a backpack, a toddler backpack, a diaper bag, a suit bag, and two exhausted pack-mule parents. Somehow we carted all this stuff on a shuttle and to the airport. The shuttle ride was Elliott's favorite part of the day. He is VERY into busses. At this point in time I'm pretty sure his dream job is to be a bus driver. Who would have thought a bus was cooler than a jet?
We let Elliott have the window seat thinking that he'd have fun looking out and understand that we were actually flying. That was wishful thinking...his favorite thing to do was lift the window cover up and down and up and down. Also, he liked to lift the seat tray up and down...and up and down. And the best one...the seat belt on and off and on and off! Other than that he was good on the plane. As much as it stinks to purchase a seat for a tiny toddler butt...it was nice having an extra seat for that tiny restless toddler butt!
In Seattle we got to stay at Ob and Amanda's new apartment and visit with them the first night.

| hey alicia...i like your dress ;) |
We visited our old church, spent time catching up with friends, took the kids to the zoo, walked Zack's old campus and our old neighborhood, visited the Pittman's, and even snuck in a date night! It was the best week. There was plenty of rain and it felt like home!
A big thank you to everyone who gave us rides to the airport, let us borrow their car, let us borrow their condo, let us stay with them, shared a meal with us, babysat for us...and basically made this trip possible!
