Flying and visiting

We had a quick visit back east in early August to see our family there. It was Ada's first big trip, and first time on a plane. And it had been a while for Calla, so it felt new to her as well.

The girls got to play with their cousins, hit the beach with Grandpa (again and again), and spend hours with Grand-maman in her enchanting backyard. We all enjoyed the trip and it was too bad we didn't have a little more time.

- we don't get these summertime thunderstorms in Vancouver!
