For the past two weeks I was blessed to be able to enjoy a wonderful time in the Pacific Northwest. Our youngest son graduated from Seattle Pacific University and we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than a family vacation in the Cascades of Washington.
All four of our children are now living in either Oregon or Washington and they just love it. They are constantly sending us real estate ads and saying “this could be your next home!”
We had a fun time spending three days in Seattle attending the various graduation activities and doing a little exploring.
The weather was absolutely beautiful. I think we only had a few sprinkles one morning.
After the graduation we headed to the mountains. With the exception of one son in law who was away on business we had everyone join us, our two daughters, a son in law, two grandchildren, our two sons and one of our son’s girlfriend. What a great week. There was limited Wi-Fi which actually was perfect. No one could spend time on the Internet! Instead we just enjoyed each other’s company.
We explored Mt. Rainier.
Enjoyed a peaceful day at Riffe Lake.
And spent a day exploring Mt. Saint Helen’s.
Each morning we started the day with a group exercise! I never knew working out could be so much fun!
We don’t get away as a family very often and I treasured having everyone under one roof. Can’t wait until we do it all again!

Nancy what a lovely family you have and a very beautiful country. Really enjoyed your post but probably not as much as you enjoyed your week away. Thank you for sharing.
