C is for Conifer

Over Labor Day weekend, Miranda and I traveled to the Pacific Northwest to visit our good friends Brianna and Naomi.  We visited the Pike Market in Seattle on our first day before driving up to Anacortes where our friends live.  We went on several nature walks to spot our favorite conifer trees and had a relaxing visit playing outside in the much cooler tempatures.  Highlights of the trip included throwing rocks into the water (Miranda could do this hour after hour, day after day), the playground, a very exciting boat ride to visit another island or two (this is where we got to tour a $5.7M yacht).  But of course, the highlight for Miranda was the non-stop companionship with Brianna.  Every morning Miranda would wake up and say "Meow" (see kitty post below) and then "Can I go downstairs and play with Brianna?"  Miranda now thinks that every airplane she sees in the sky is either going to or coming from Washington.  She is anxiously awaiting Brianna's next visit to San Antonio.

We actually needed a hoodie!  Yay for cool weather!

Look like a great trip, but I have to say, whoa. In that last photo, Miranda has decidedly made the transition from cute toddler to beautiful little girl. She's growing up fast!
