Seattle wrapup

Our timing for our trip to the Olympic Peninsula was brilliant, as we happened to hit the annual Red Wine and Chocolate tour hosted by a number of local wineries. On Sunday, we visited two that also happened to make real cider, apple and pear hard ciders similar to those Stace is familiar with.
 We had fun tasting, and the most delicious chocolate was also being sampled out. Yum!
Alison and Tyler came with us, and after we had dinner together, we went to their cute little place, a perfect newlywed setup. Cora like playing with the kitties...
...and checking out Tyler's music studio in the loft. Tyler and Stace jammed, with Cora on drums. 
 Cora helped Aunt Patty with some of the cooking, but Violet wanted to wear the apron.

She also liked trying on sister's boots!
Uncle Bill did a balancing game with Cora that he played with his kids when they were younger. There was lots of laughter!

And, like usual, we took the ferry on our way back to Seattle when it was time to return to the airport. It was windy on the boat! Both girls got a kick out of the ferry.

Our trip was fantastic! It was so nice to have a full week together. Thanks, Uncle Bill and Aunt Patty! Until we meet again...
