Alaska!

I've been meaning to post this for a week, so sorry about that! It's been busy and Anni hasn't wanted to let Kelly or me out of her sight! When we first picked her up, she wasn't sure what to do. She just stared at us with a smile, then crawled back and forth between us for the rest of the day. Grandma LeAnn taught her to play patty cake, it's just darling.

Here is the Seattle coastline, taken as the ship was pulling out of the harbor.
Here's a great pic of Addison being shy before she got used to us. By the end of the trip she was dragging me and Kelly around everywhere.

Kelly and I on the first formal night.
