Trip to Washington

Over Spring Break we flew to Washington. The pilot let the girls come into the cockpit she even let them press some buttons, she must have had kids because she was so good with them.

Our first visit was with our friends from Renton. Oh how we miss them! We had a fun filled afternoon catching up and playing.

We also visited my best friends from high school. Allison loved baby Tessa! It was fun to have all of us and our girls together.

Grandpa and Grandma took us to see Hop which the girls enjoyed. They also got to see Grandmas doll collection. Emma even got to try on some muck lucks that were my moms when she was little.
While we were there the woolly bear Caterpillars decided to go into their cocoons. I love the picture where you can see through the outer cocoon. It was really interesting to watch them create their cocoons, they use the hairs from their bodies and mix it in with the silky threads they spin (not sure if spin is the correct term.)
We didn't get to see the Isabella Tiger Moth emerge from her cocoon but Grandma sent us a picture. Moths and butterflies are amazing little creatures.

The girls had fun at recess at Grandmas school. They also got to go to space with Grandmas class I will post pictures of that someday ;)
