Are his eyes closed? Rats! Our double date with my cousin Kent and his lovely wife, Tritia. What a great evening! |
Finally catching up the blog. I have a new laptop battery and cord and everything is up and working again. We were fortunate again this year to visit my mom's sister and husband (Donna and Randy) in Sequim, WA. Mom and Dad are staying a full month out there, so our visits overlapped. Yea! A special treat for us this year was to get some quality time with my cousin, Kent, and his family (wife Tritia, son Kai, and daughter Sofia). We haven't seen Kent and Tritia since their wedding...I'm thinking a dozen years ago. So, not only had we not met Kai and Sophia, but neither had Isaiah. Oh boy, what a treat! Enjoy the photos!

Looks like you and your boys enjoyed your visit to the Pacific NW! My hubby and I have been up there several times. He likes to go to Mt. St. Helens every ten years to observe the changes in the landscape. We're due for another trip in a few years.
ReplyDeleteThanks for checking in! Neat about visiting every 10 years. It is so interesting, isn't it. Take care and keep in touch!
