Bread and Jam

I am not sure if Miles actually ate any of the jam..

Happy 50th Aunt Ruthie!

What good genes we have!

Seattle, Sweet Seattle

Dear Alyboo...My trip to Seattle was lovely. This picture above was the afternoon I arrived. Michelle and Ava and I went for a walk and then we just hung out in the yard enjoying the sun. We had two sunny days inbtween rainy days. The next day Michelle and I went to Bellevue for some shopping. Amazingly Ava lasted for four hours at the mall, she started to lose it at the end.

Saturday was the best day! The weather was 80 degrees, similar to when we visited in September. We spent the afternoon at Gasworks Park and had a little picnic. We had watche the Kite Runner the night before and Lauren was excited to try and fly his kite. His kite was a big toucan and the wind wasn't quite strong enough to get it off the ground. It was quite funny watching him try though. After the park Lauren took Ava home and Michelle and I went and did more shopping downtown and at Pike Place.

On Sunday we traveled up to Skagit Valley and visited the tulip gardens. It wasn't as warm as the day before but the tulips were amazing.

Happy Easter!

Easter was lovely. These pictures are all from the evening where we spent time with the Buchanan Clan at Aunt Ruthie's house.

Miles was not happy unless he was outside with the "big" kids on the trampoline. The kids had to be a little gentle when he would get on. He mostly just wanted to sit or lay down and be bounced around.

Miles' first Glue...

Hi Aly.. As you know Dave and Cicely were gone all last week looking for a home in Pennsylvania..which they found. I am sure Cic will blog about it. Miles got to stay with Mom and Dad for a few days at the end of the week. Friday night Miles was walking with his blue blank and tripped and caught his head on the handle of Dad's desk. It opened a nice little hole above is right eyebrow. Dad called Dave and Cicely and they wanted him seen at an instacare..there they fixed him right up with a little glue and some steristrips. It was about a quarter of an inch long but pretty deep. This is after the instacare at Rumbi's enjoying some sweet potato fries and then on Sunday....
