trip to WA

We took two weeks to visit family in Bremerton, WA this July. Below are some pictures from our trip. But first, here are some fun things that Elijah said during the trip.
----------
Daddy: Elijah, we are going to Seattle to see great-grandma and great-grandpa.
Elijah: Yes, we are going to see Attle!
Elijah (upon leaving the plane in Seattle): So, is this where Attle lives?
----------
Elijah (after one of the first visits to great-grandma's and great-grandpa's): Where's great aunt Chelsea? (Explanation: In Elijah's mind, aunt Chelsea always goes with grandma and grandpa, so if we are seeing great-grandma and great-grandpa, there has to be a great aunt Chelsea somewhere nearby).
----------
Elijah: Mommy, I don't have a question for you. I need to go buy one at the store!
----------
Elijah (having just gotten on the plane in Seattle to go back to Detroit): I want the clouds down!

Ah, I SEE!! For long LOOOONG time, I did not get this, and after lunch today, all of a sudden the understanding came to me. See-Attle!!! Seattle!!! For long time, I was meaning to ask you who Attle is and if she/he lives in Seattle.
