Trip To Leavenworth

Yesterday Hannah and I loaded up the car and took the 3 little girls to Leavenworth, a Bavarian Village over the Cascade Mountains.  I was worried about the pass conditions especially since we were travelling with kids but we lucked out and it was clear the whole way.  We made it to Leavenworth just in time before the snow started falling which made our sleigh ride that afternoon that much more magical.  Makena even got to enjoy some sledding at the end of the day.  Now we're back home and Hannah and I are worn out from all the packing and trying to keep everything together for the girls.  It's amazing how much stuff went into a one night stay away from home :)

All the girls seem to be doing better on their medications and no one's ears were affected by going through the mountain passes.  Today Esme seems back to her normal self and not as cranky but she still isn't eating very well.  All she wants to do is nurse but she's not interested in solids at all.
