In One Piece!

Hello All!
We're in Port Angeles and getting settled right in. The girls were perfect little travelers yesterday, with the exception of a lost toddler in Santa Ana. Don't worry- there was no panic at all, as neither of us knew she was missing, and she was happily receiving stickers from the security guards who were paging us. They must have told her that her mommy and daddy missed her, because the line of the day was, "Daddy, you really missed me!"
We had a very long day of travel but the girls are very happy to be here and are having a blast. We had planned to stay at Grandma and Grandpa's but the combination of the overwhelming number of people and Molly's super sensitive sleeping happy have changed our plans a bit. We're staying at my uncle's guest house now, about ten minutes away. It's turning out to be beyond perfect for us, as Molly can have her own room and sleep well, and Lu has the chance to wind down quietly before bed and really collect herself after the chaos of family and rough play. And Andrew and I have a little more space to soak up some of the holiday peace we were going to miss with all of our travel. Win, win, win! The house is lovely, the view superb and the innkeeper is always a joy. It's so nice to have a bit of solitude amid the Christmas rush.
Tomorrow we'll be heading out early for more visiting! We're going to take the little ladies to see their Aunties! Pictures to follow!
