Our California Adventure!

Sorry it's been a while since our last entry, but I didn't have Internet our last week in Seattle and we have been so busy visiting family. Trevor and I had a good drive to California--we definitely noticed a difference in the greenery between Seattle and California! We only hit a lot of traffic in Portland Oregon (we managed to drive through right during rush hour), but other than that we had a great drive.

We are not in Seattle anymore! No more pine trees...

We have had a blast spending time with family. Trevor's sister and her family are here in town from Birmingham. This is the first time we have seen our niece Katya! She is a cutie and LOVES to be the center of attention.

Hank and Leah are also in town this week (they are driving Summer, Trevor's younger sister, to BYU next week).

Okay, I have to tell a cute story... so Leah and Martin went away on a little getaway for their anniversary yesterday and we watched their daughter Katya. Katya is a momma's girl and always has to make sure her mom is in sight. So when Leah and Martin left she cried and cried. Nobody could comfort her--except Trevor that is. She didn't want anyone else to hold her and it was so cute how she would follow him around and wail if she didn't know where he was. Apparently she adopted him as her temporary mom!

Here is Katya holding her arms out for Trevor.
Now she's happy!

Last night we went and visited Gordon and Chrissy last night which was a lot of fun! We loved their apartment--it was so cute!

We have had a really low-key week, but it has been such a relaxing vacation. It has mainly consisted of sitting around and talking, making food together, and playing games. His family is currently really into the game Settlers of Catan and they just played Cities and Knights of Catan the other day and loved it!

We are excited to go to Arizona on Saturday! I can't believe how fast this summer went, but we are anxious to get back to school.

Here are some more pictures of Seattle. This is the apartment complex we stayed in.

Here is another view of downtown Seattle. Bye Seattle! Hope to see you again! :0)
