A Day of Pictures and Family Fun!

Grandma Rabe, Jill, and Richelle are here to visit for the 3 day weekend so we spent the day traveling to and from Poulsbo, Washington. Our friends Kent and Kirsten have been recommending it to us as a must see and they were right! We rode on a ferry and had fun walking around and stopping in at the cute little shops. The town was settled by Scandinavian people and English wasn't spoken there until after WWII. Enjoy the photos!

 

Twinkly Things

Mole's been busy-

A couple of photos

My favorite winter thing-Green - trash
All else - recycling
I had to post this photo because Wes gets so excited to put our trash at the curb and watch it magically disappear. He hops around the house from window to window to watch the garbage truck take it away. No more fires in the backyard for him.

Back Home

Hi all!
We made it safely and easily to Washington. Today was 48 and sunny!
We had a wonderfully pampered flight. Aunt Linda (an American Airlines flight attendant) let the flight crew know that her niece and nephew-in-law would be flying, so they made sure we sat together and ate all the free food we could manage! They each came over and gave us a special 'hello' compliments of Aunt Linda. The guy next to us was very interested to know who this aunt Linda was and where he could get one!
He also thought that it was funny how our mom made our names rhyme...

Hope you are all enjoying your time off!

Here are some fun pictures from our time in Chicago-
