Part 2 of our Northwest visit: The Hadliest Hadley niece in the world has lived one year. She was the most celebrated one year old I've seen in a long time! What a
wonderful job her mommy did in throwing her the perfect little party.

To test out my up-and-coming sewing skills, I tried my hand at making Hadley's birthday present (and Isabella's, for later this month). It's a hippo bath puppet, and Isabella has a quiet book with 4 pages for the seasons. She can spend endless time (right) pulling the shapes off buttons, stuffing them in the pocket, and putting them back on:
Next, we celebrated mom's day amongst 4 family moms! Record! Tim's mom, Hadley and Isabella's mom, Avery's mom (that's ME!), and little Peach Fulmore's mom (congrats, Joanie!) all enjoyed a semi-sunny afternoon at Point Defiance zoo. Avery's first trip! She liked the peacock best we think. We love these moms.

A final mom's day hurrah with our good friends the Helleksons, moving to London this summer for a couple of years. We were spoiled to have them all to ourselves for an evening, and to be able to enjoy Steph's yummy cooking. Thanks guys!!! We can't wait to stay in touch to hear about your adventures!

All in all just a great last trip for awhile. See you at Christmas, T-town! Thanks for sharing your greatness!
