Oma and Opa flew out to visit and so we decided to take a little hiatus out on Orcas Island. Kayla seemed to really enjoy the ferry ride, and was even serenaded by a high school choir class. They had done some singing and Kayla liked it so much that she wanted “more singing”. Oma took K. over and they sang Jingle bells for her.
The rain and wind let up for long enough Saturday morning for us to take a hike around Mountain lake in Moran State Park. The rest of the weekend was super windy, rainy and just plain stormy. It was nice to have a place to be protected from the elements.
Kayla loves to climb into this mat with Julia Rose, as K. calls her. I think she has more fun in there right now than Julia does. Kayla still seems okay with her new sister, though there are certainly times when it’s hard on her and those times are then hard on us due to her minor melt downs. She is a trooper though, and Julia is lucky to have such a loving sister.
