The Brooks on tour #1

One of the real highlights of my year – the arrival of Emma, Christian, Tilly and Maddy at the height of summer, for two glorious weeks.

We started with a tour of Wallingford and Fremont (where’s Maddy?)

Including a tour of the famous Theo’s Chocolate Factory. Stylish!

On Emma’s birthday, we went to Green Lake for a dip, then into town and up the Space Needle. But not before birthday cupcakes.

Then while Em and Christian painted the town red and stayed in a boutique sleepery, Karen and I took the girls to the very, very laid back Goddess Festival in Meridian Park just up the road. I bought a hula hoop! For me! Core strength, honest.
