The end of the trip



Phoebe was worn out by the end of our trip. She slept a good part of the way to Seattle and we tried to get her good and worn out in the airport so that she would sleep on the plane. She did sleep, although rough. Although I miss Seattle it was nice to be back home!

Horse Back Riding


Another part of Easter at Uncle Cliff's is horse back riding. He is 92 years old and it is tradition that he takes all the babies for their first ride. This is about as far as Phoebe got. She wouldn't actually take a ride.

Egg Hunt, part two




So this is the egg hunt and my great uncle Cliff's. They color and hide something like 50 dozen eggs. At least that's how much they did in the old days. Phoebe seemed to really enjoy it. We had to be careful, though, because she kept trying to throw the eggs in her basket, thus smashing the eggs up.

Easter Dress



Phoebe isn't really used to be so dressed up. By the time Mass was over she was pulling on her dress trying to get it off. She sure looked cute, though.

Pea Pod


This is Phoebe's "Pea Pod". We got it because it's much lighter weight then the pack in play and she needed a place to sleep. Of course we kept busy trying to keep the dogs out of it.

St. Andrew's Egg Hunt




We went on Saturday to an egg hunt at St. Andrew's. She did ok but was a little taken aback by all the kids racing for eggs.

On the Farm






Phoebe did not want to be inside at all during our stay in Ellensburg. She was obsessed with the animals. I had no problem with her being outside, of course, except it was really cold and she refused to wear her mittens. She was worn out by the end of our vacation!

St. Patrick's Day

Seattle Sculpture Park


Phoebe and Conner



The first night in Seattle we had dinner with some friends. Phoebe seemed to enjoy having a playmate. Conner was very sweet with Phoebe. It was supper cute!

On the plane



Phoebe did pretty well on the plane to Seattle. She got a little fussy half way through but she'd been up since 4:00am. She finally fell asleep and slept for a good half of the flight or so.
