What a whirlwind couple of weeks we’ve had! Grandma and Grandpa Shankland came to visit for a week, and shortly after that we drove to Spokane to see Grandma and Grandpa Ancel, and Uncle Zach, Auntie Rachel and Hayden. Busy busy busy!
On top of all the visiting, I had a horrible cold the entire time Sherwood and Eunice were here, and the baby wasn’t feeling great either. But we still had a good time! We shopped, we ate, we enjoyed time together. We are also the proud new owners of a (slightly used) really great high-chair for Emily. She loves it! Thanks grandparents!
My new favorite picture:
Some pictures of the Shankland’s visit to see us in Seattle:
Lounging in bed with Mama (we didn’t feel good).
Daddy brought home a bear claw that was the size of the baby!
Drooling on grandma.
Phew! It was grandpa. :P
A few days later we jumped in the car and drove to visit family in Spokane! We only had a couple of days, but it was great fun! We went shopping with Auntie Rachel, Hayden and Grandma, and she did great! Thanks again for all the nice clothes, you two! :)
Sitting on Grandpa’s lap! (And apparently drooling on him, too.)
Standing up with Daddy.
Giving Auntie Rachel a hard time.
In the BIG stroller!
Picking out clothes with Grandma. She’s already a good little shopper! :P
We also visited our good friends Tara and Ryan and their new baby Kennedi! She’s beautiful, and so little!
Friends and their girls!
It was a great trip until we got in the car to come home. Apparently, everyone else in the entire state also wanted to go home to Seattle, and we ended up stuck in traffic for THREE EXTRA HOURS. We finally made it home at ten pm. And boy were we glad to be out of the car!
All in all it was a wonderful couple of weeks visiting family. We are so blessed to have so many people that love us! Next up: a possible trip to Virginia for a wedding. Can we do it? We’ll see!!
