The last few months have been CRAZY... It all started in June when we found out my husband got a job in Seattle that was going to be starting in August, which then turned into October! But that is a different story... So all of July was spent planning, packing, buying safe foods for my daughter, changing plans, and then more packing, and finally leaving our home in San Diego. We got a PODS shipping container and had all our stuff sent to Washington. Then the four of us road tripped it all they way up the coast of California, Oregon, and then finally Washington. The first stop we made was all the way up to Anaheim! YES, a whole 2 hours drive that first day. We stayed at the Howard Johnson Hotel and Water Playground. We just spent an exhausting week packing everything we owned into a single box and we just wanted an evening of relaxing and fun. A splurge well worth it in my opinion. The rooms were huge and there was a little patio area that you could hang your bathing suits
