Two weeks ago the kids and I flew to Washington to visit my parents. "Gram-mom" and "Gram-pa" were so good to us! This first post (of a few I'll post about our trip) is filled with pictures of our time spent at home sweet home. :) Adam came towards the end of the week to cheer on my Dad and me as we raced in the Beever Freezer Triathlon, hence he's only in the last few photos of our gorgeous, rainy hike to Cougar Creek, one of our favorite walking trails, on Sunday after we listened to inspiring General Conference messages. :) Thank you so much Mom and Dad for such a wonderful week!! You were so patient with the kids (it was a rough week for those two) and me.
We love and miss you more than we can say.
^^ Lots of little handprint traced. :) ^^
^^ Looking out the airplane window as we landed in Portland. ^^
^^ Ava was in my Baby Bjorn at the airport, so that's why it only shows Brooks so excited to see "Gram-mom" and "Gram-pa"...he was GIDDY! ^^
^^ He ADORES her ^^
^^ Ava loved the Cheerio necklace Grandma made her...cute and tasty ;) ^^
^^ My Mom's pumpkin curry soup and spinach, strawberry salad...one of the many delicious lunches she made...miss her cooking. ^^
^^ Training with my Dad! It was a beautiful ride that day... ^^
^^ Grahams and milk...a favorite snack in the Stum house ^^
^^ A rainy afternoon called for snuggling in blankets to watch 'Aristocats' and sip hot cocoa with Gram-mom...Brooks was in Heaven ^^
^^ German pancake brunch for General Conference! ^^
^^ Nothing like that PNW green. ^^

I love all these wonderful pictures. Oh how I want to make a trip out to WA so bad. The heat and beach are wonderful but I'm missing the PNW. Cannot wait to hear about your tri. I did one a few years ago and now i'm itching to do another.
Looks like you had such a fun trip!! I found some travel buddies and am heading there myself on Thursday. I am beyond excited, especially after seeing this cute post :)
