Trip to Zillah, WA

This past weekend Todd, Meadow and I headed to Zillah, WA for my friend Sarah's wedding. This was our first big car trip in a long time. It takes about three hours from our house. It was a beautiful drive through the Columbia Gorge before taking a left up into Washington. We had a few challenges over the weekend, but overall had a good time. It was a 103 degrees in Zillah and it was very hot the whole trip there. Due to the heat we didn't get to hang out very much in the tee pee at the Cherrywood bed and breakfast. It cooled down enough at night for us to sleep at night. The bed and breakfast was just down the street from the wedding site, so it was nice to be able stay so close. We also were able to have a nice breakfast on the lawn of the B & B with Sarah and Mark and more friends in the morning.

Here are a few pics of the tee pee we stayed in.


Meadow had a blast running everywhere and dancing. Unfortunately, due to her high energy she could not sit still for the wedding so Todd hung out with her outside. Conveniently, some cold beer and juice arrived during the ceremony. So, Todd and Meadow were able to stay cool with some yummy drinks. Meadow is definitely at one of the more challenging ages for events like this.
The Flower girls. I think Sarah had a record 8 or 9 flower girls. I didn't catch a picture of all of them. Sarah helps to run a Big Brother Big Sister mentor program and had her little sister be the ring bearer.

I am not the best at taking pictures, so it was too bad this one was cut off. The wedding was at her uncle's winery. The wine was amazing.
