Today we spent the day at Snoqualmie Falls. Before we left mommy packed a picnic lunch and took it with us. We drove out there during my morning nap and I slept the whole way. I wanted to be awake to enjoy the water fall and all of the trees and flowers in the park. We parked in the 90 minute lot and took a short walk to the upper observation deck which is near the top of the falls. Grandma and grandpa didn't stay there long once they found out that there was a 1/2 mile hike that would take them to the bottom of the falls. Mommy and I stayed in the park and waited for them to come back. We set up the picnic blanket and had the food and water waiting for them when they came back up. Grandma said the kid in her was stronger than the adult because once they got to the end of the boardwalk they jumped the rail and climbed down to the big rocks at the bottom of the falls. Grandpa said that was really fun because they were close enough to feel the spray.
Grandma and grandpa were both really sweaty when they met us back at the top of the trail head. Mommy moved the car to another lot so we could stay a little longer and enjoy our picnic. This is a picture of all of us as we sat under the trees.
On our way back to the car we stopped at the gift shop and grandpa bought grandma a pretty stone necklace and a ring carved out of wood. Her ring had little flowers painted on it. It was really pretty. I took a really long nap on the way home because I was exhausted. It was another fun day.

Sophia you should have insisted on going to the bottom of the falls. Being able to look up at the water as it is flowing over the upper ledge would have been exicting. The spray would leave you breathless. O and your Daddy would have held you tight so nothing bad would have happened. Your grandparents appear to be having lots of fun with you. Say hello to them from Pappy.
