Last Friday the four of us ventured out on a road trip to Yakima to scout out a few things for the upcoming high school work camp trip and to visit with some friends from seminary. We made the final decision to go the night before and I was quite impressed when we were out the door by 8:20am (8:00am was our goal departure time). We made a few stops along the way and the girls did great. We enjoyed lunch in downtown Yakima at a restaurant in a parked and converted train car with our friends from seminary and their children. Then scoped out the church where the high school students will be staying. The church has a garden, which had ripe strawberries, and a playground, which made Clara very happy.
On our way back home we stopped off at a state park where Clara and Matt played in a stream and chased two rabbits across a field. Clara was truly delighted with this! We stopped in Hood River for a great dinner at Big Horse where we enjoyed a window-front table with a view of the Columbia River. It was a great (almost) end to our adventurous day!
Clara playing in the stream with a stick. Later she even put her feet in..I was shocked!
The 2 bunnies eating grass across the field have been spotted. (Note Clara's bare feet. Again, I'm shocked!)
The full speed bunny chase!
