WA Trip

Greg's work let him attend a week long Microsoft conference in WA and so we decided we'd go with him! A chance to escape the blistering AZ heat???? Not a hard decision!!!

We went hiking up Mt. Rainier for over an hour and Reese was such a trooper. He hiked by himself almost the whole way! We only carried him during the parts where the steps were taller than the length of his legs!The weather was GORGEOUS! It was kind of cloudy as we drove up but then it cleared as we started hiking which gave us a fantastic view of the top of the mountain.I couldn't believe there was snow on the ground. How many of you can say you built a snowman and kissed it...in August????? Reese did!There were a lot of really cool waterfalls running down the mountain.Gravity seemed to take its toll on Reese's sinuses!
(do you see his huge boogar???)
Our hotel was right by the Seattle temple!
We took Reese to the Children's Museum and his favorite part was the grocery shopping room. He didn't want to leave!
