We flew away from a rarely sunny Northville. (Check out that hideous front door!)

We love flying together. (No, she never naps).

We love mountains.

First, she didn’t want to leave the Sea-Tac Airport

Then, she took a loooooong bath at the Cedarbrook Lodge, our new favorite hotel in the Seattle Area.

We got to meet Jonah, who brought Ella an adorable bear! (She’ll have these for sale at the craft fair in PDX on May 2-3)

Ella fell asleep on my lap while we tried to have dinner with Jonah. I could have stayed up all night long chatting with her!
Awoke to a lovely view from our room!

We took the Coast Starlight from Seattle to Portland and it was so lovely. (No, she did not eat that banana.)

Once we arrived, we had so much fun playing that we forgot to take pictures.”
