Sleepy Rachel

Rachel and I usually read a book or two in the rocking chair before bed. The other night she was wanting to read her books but it was only like 6:30 so I wanted to wait a little bit before putting her to bed. I let her play in her room while I went to do the dinner dishes. After a while I realized it was pretty quiet and went to check on Rachel. I thought it was so sweet to see her sleeping all curled up in the chair. Guess she was pretty tired!

Snoqualmie Falls

We are lucky enough to live about 15 minutes from one of Washington's most visited tourist attractions...Snoqualmie Falls. A few weekends ago there was a beautiful, sunny day and we took advantage of it!

There is a hike that takes you to the bottom of the falls but it is a mile straight down and then up again, so we skipped the hike (for the girls' of course).

Last year we took a train ride to the top of the falls, but this was a better view.

The girls had a great time running around and enjoying the fresh air.

They had so much fun chasing each other around the park.

Rachel loves to be chased by Hannah. She kept running away from her and diving into my arms.

Thanks Dan for taking us to the falls! We had such a fun day with you!

Tired Hannah

I guess this girl was pretty tired. She fell asleep in the chair like this! I carried her to bed after I snapped a few pictures and she kept crying "Hannah's not tired!"
