Malorie and I flew straight from VA to Seattle for Thanksgiving & Malorie's birthday. Jeff drove up from Utah with his family and met us there. After having Malorie glued to my side the entire trip to VA, I was ready to meet up with Jeff. Malorie had fun playing with her cousins, Lily & Rory while we waited for Jeff.
Everyone was excited to see each other. Malorie was more excited to see Grandma Beth, than Jeff. Apparently she blamed him for not coming to VA with us.
We enjoyed spending time with Jeff's side of the family at Daniel & Jenna's new house in Lake Forest Park.
Daniel and Jenna have three cats. Malorie was fascinated by them and did not fear them. She tried to crawl into their cat carries with them, but we stopped that before the cats did. (Minerva pictured below.)
My cousin, Rachel, is living in Washington right now. She was able to join us for Thanksgiving. It was so nice to catch up with her!
Jenna's family came to town for Thanksgiving as well. We were all able to go to the zoo the day after Thanksgiving.
This peacock was roaming around at the zoo. Malorie was fascinated and again had no fear. If I had let her she would have pet it.
After the zoo, we went to a park along the water to let the kids play.
We ended up driving home on Malorie's birthday so we celebrated her birthday a day early. I will do a separate post for Malorie's birthday.
On the drive home, Malorie loved to sit next to Grandma Beth and be entertained. If we wanted Malorie to sleep we switched things up and sat Marianne next to Malorie. They would play together for a little while and then both end up asleep. Traveling is much easier when you have two aunts and grandma along!
