We just had the best couple of days traveling to Port Townsend for our friend's wedding!
It's always wonderful when we are able to embark on little mini-adventures as a family.
Daddy and Rolli waiting for the ferry in Seattle.
Vivian (thinking about her blanket still in the car) and me waiting for the ferry.
Rolli just enjoyed a delicious chocolate chip cookie from Becky.
And now he is taking advantage of being unbuckled in the car while we still wait.
Vivian on her first ferry ride!
Wwwiiiiiindy!
This is how Vivian feels about the wind.
Vivian and me getting some fresh air on the ferry.

Windblown family photo.
The guy who took this said "well, it'll be a nice picture of you two."
Rolli and Vivian didn't want to look into the wind.
I waited until Tuesday to make reservations for Friday.
Not my usual style but it was kinda last minute that Marshall was going to be able to go with us.
And I'm so glad that I waited.
Most everything in the town of Port Townsend was booked up (and way too expensive).
I found a little farm B & B just 12 miles outside of town.
It was PERFECT!
Linda and Jim of Solstice Farm Bed & Breakfast happily welcomed us!...
busy toddlers too!
Solstice Farms was clean with ample room to wonder.
Exactly what this family needed!
Linda showing us the garden and collecting some stuff to feed to the animals.
The happy grass feed sheep.
We had delicious sheep sausage for breakfast.
Thanks for being so tasty.
Rolli and Daddy watching the pigs.
Me and Vivian watching the pigs.
Linda giving the pigs a little scratch.
Rolli has no fear.
He worries me sometimes.
After visiting with the animals we let the kids loose on the wild blackberries.
YUM!
Nearly the whole road was lined with blackberry bushes.
Perfectly ripened to sweetness.
And there were plenty just the right height for Rolli and Vivian.
Daddy loves blackberries too!
Rolli, Thanks for sharing!
Vivian LuUves her Daddy!
After exploring the farm for a bit and getting our fill of blackberries we took off for town.
Pizza for dinner followed by homemade local ice cream and a stroll around downtown.
Beautiful.
These two are soooo busy and active!
We all slept well.
And woke up to a delicious breakfast of farm fresh eggs, hot crepes, local fruit, and coffee.

Thanks for the warm stay!
We hope to return :)
