Catching Up...

I won't try to fill you in on all the details of the last couple months but I've posted a few highlights below.

Sandpoint...

Last weekend we went with Mitch's family up to their cabin in Sandpoint, Idaho. Mitch's grandfather designed the cabin and with the help of family they built the whole thing. Unfortunately I didn't get a good picture of the place but the scenery was breathtaking. With great weather and great company it was the perfect little getaway. Alex provided some hilarious entertainment around the fire too.












P.S. This is where they filmed Dante's Peak.

Friend in town...

In April one of my favorite people in the whole world came up to Seattle for a visit.
In the few days she was here we saw and did just about everything there is.
I loved seeing all the sights, getting to visit the Tacoma museums, and riding the ferry, etc. but for me the best part of having her here was just getting to laugh and talk with her. It made me realize how much I miss getting to see her regularly. Hopefully someday we can live near each other again but until then blogs and emails will have to do.

Visiting Kansas...

In March we went to Kansas to see my family. I loved every minute of it. As always, the best part of all was getting to see my two little neices. It amazes me how different their personalities are but how they each are the most adorable little girls I've ever seen. I wouldn't change a thing about them (except that they're growing up too fast with me far away).
