WA Vacation Part 2...Leavenworth

Ryan mini-golfing. Unfortunately he beat me...but it was close!
At the hotel next to us, there was a man who came out every morning to blow the Alpine Horn. You can barely see him in the upstairs balcony here. It sounded pretty cool.
After enjoying a couple weeks hanging out with my family, Ryan was able to join us. We had planned that while we were in WA, we would go overnight somewhere just the two of us. We decided to return to a place we had visited on a day trip back when we were dating. We headed to Leavenworth. This is a little Bavarian village right over the pass in Eastern WA. It has all little Swiss like decoration outside all the stores and lots of fun shops to walk in. We basically spent the two days looking in shops, mini-golfing on real greens, enjoying the scenery, and not having to follow any type of a schedule!!! It was so relaxing and we didn't worry about the kids at all!!! What a great break. Thanks everyone for watching the kids!

Ahhh, nothing beats that quality time with family...except maybe quality time with JUST your hubbie. We were blessed to have some of both this summer too.

Looks like you guys have had a super summer. We're so happy for you! :)
