A Trip To...

A few days ago Chris told me that he had a special day planned for all of us in honor of Mother's Day.  He decided to go today (Saturday) instead of on Mother's Day since the weather is supposed to change (and rain) tomorrow.  All I knew is that we were leaving in the morning...we would be gone most of the day...we would be outside most of the time.

We ended up at Snoqualmie Falls first and spent a good amount of time walking around the paths along the falls, next to Salish Lodge.  The sight of the water rushing over the dam is just breathtaking.  The boys loved running up and down the paths and we had fun watching them.




Next, we took a nice drive around the area and then went back to 'old town' Snoqualmie Falls where the trains are.  Cannon got to play on the trains, we watched the Snoqualmie Train pull in, load up passengers and head off.  This was a huge hit for Colson.  He loved watching everything.  We spent time in the store and then had a nice walk down the walkway to look at some historical train cars.



We finally ended our day in a cute little diner for lunch.  We all ate some yummy food and the boys meals came with an ice cream cone for dessert!


It was a fabulous day together as a family.
It was relaxing.
It was refreshing to get out.
It was great to visit a place we haven't been to in a long time.
It was wonderful to make great memories.

I'm so blessed Chris took the time to plan such a special day!

Enjoying every moment.
