Generations

While spending a week in Seattle looking for a place to hang our hats, we also got to spend some time with my family. Here are some memories we enjoyed:

My Grandmother, Nani will be 98 this year. She is such an example of incredible strength and devotion to her family. I'm looking forward to spending time with her, learning more about our family history and her wealth of wisdom.

The big highlight of our trip was meeting our new little niece, Sacia. My sister, Tricia and her husband, Clint just adopted Sacia (pronounced like "Sasha") from Russia. She is just 1 month younger than Natty (22 mos). They had a great time playing together all weekHola! Grammy and Grandad! They came up from Portland to visit us and we all went out for a mexican lunch. I love my Grandad. He's the best!Everybody had fun at a Superbowl/baby shower/family dinner party at Tricia's. I think the best part was when the New York Giants won! Poor Uncle Steven was banished to go play with the nieces, hanging his head in shame, poor poor Patriots. I think Tim may be rubbing that win in for a while to come.Oliver was happy to know that The Reptile Zoo is still there in Monroe. Hasn't changed much. What a fun 10th(?) birthday that was!I had to take this picture for Becky to show her who her new neighbors might be. These alpacas were walking their owners down the road in Snohomish.Sophia at the Seattle temple.
