Visit with the Block's

First stop was Pioneer Park



The first of many practices on the tractors available for all toddlers to 'test' out.




Peach and Orange Ice treat!




Buds!



Future accountant??







Nick and I love visiting our friend's Shannon and Andy and their kids Hadley and Jameson in Walla Walla. While visiting any town where you have good friends it makes the experience much more enjoyable but I am positive people would love it regardless. Wine, gourmet restaurants, farmers markets and fabulous weather...seriously what's not to love. Aside from getting to spend time with our friends one of my favorite things about Walla Walla is how small it is. I'm sure there are draw backs to small town living but honestly it is so refreshing to be able to walk anywhere and if you do drive everything is within 5 minutes.





While we were there Shannon scored us a baby sitter that allowed all four parents to leave all three sleeping babies two nights in a row. We grown ups did the Fair concert/beer garden the first night. I had never heard of 'The Band Perry' but let me tell ya, the lead singer is one awesome performer. If you have the chance to see them live do it! The next night we celebrated another good friends 30th birthday in a nearby town...a full 20 minute drive (nothing compared to our usual 50 minute drive to Seattle) and ate some of the best food and had some of the most unique drinks that would rival any restaurant on this side of the State.





We spent the rest of the week chasing our insanely cute children in their gorgeous back yard, at the country club pool while the boys played golf and at their newly purchased office building where they will be moving their tax practice to this week now that renovations are complete. We had an amazing time (again) and feel so honored that they keep letting us come back to invade their home and make their kiddos share their toys and parents with us!!
