Spring break road trip (part one)

The Coulombes have been craving a road trip for a while, so Spring Break served as a small outlet for this as we visited friends and family. God is so good to give us a non-bucking van (!) and enough extra funds to make this happen.

Our first stop was to stay with good friends, Seth and Amy, in Renton, WA (just south of Seattle). We enjoyed such good conversation and catching up, and on top of it, they love our kids. It was so refreshing to encourage one another and take time hang out. Thank you guys for letting the Coulombes invade your home! We love you!

After picking up Casey (Andy's bro) in Seattle, we headed West to Camano Island where 7 of us packed into a one bedroom toothpick cabin for 2 nights. And besides the first hellish night with Luci, we all had a great time.
There was a looming forecast of rain but God blessed us with beautiful sunny days with amazing clouds.

Uncle Casey, you are so great. We love you!

This was our view out the cabin window. We saw a gray whale breach and sea lions bob up and down in the water.

Filling our pockets full of shells and treasures. Avery looked like he grew an udder by the time we got back to our cabin. Simple pleasures.

Perfect sunset
