Trip to Seattle part 2

This was on Saturday after the ferry.

We went to Pike's Market and had lunch.

There is a big brass piggy bank and Auggie and Rosie got to put coins in.

On Sunday we went to the Locks and saw the boats go through.

Then we went to the Salmon ladders.

This is Dimitri with fish ladders behind him.

There was a building outside the Locks that Rosie and Auggie enjoyed.

They are quite the climbers.

Trip to Seattle part 1

Dimitri and I spent his last weekend in Seattle.

We had a great time visiting my brother Rob, sis-in-law Becky, and the twins, August and Rose.

Augie and Rosie enjoyed showing "Dimiwi" Seattle.

We took the ferry over to Bainbridge Island.

It was Dimitri's first time on a boat.

The twins played "monkeys in a cage."

When we went home, Rob turned on the water and the twins had a great time.

Then Rob puts sausages on the grill and we had a very nice dinner outside on their patio.

Easter Day Festivities

I had a wonderful Easter. It is my favorite day of the year. After church I went to the home of my daughters' mother, Katherine. She has welcomed me into their family and I like spending holidays with them. This first picture is of the two of us. Not sure why it is blurry.

This is Joey and Betty.
This is Molly with her first boyfriend, another Joey.

This is Betty and her sister Connie.

Great smiles.

Birthday Fun

Everyone at the party got to help decorate Rob's birthday cake, including the twins.

It made for an interesting cake which included a mini corndog on a stick.

Rose helps daddy spin the tunes.

Rose and Auggie each bought daddy a balloon and then enjoyed running around the party with them flying behind.

Rob got a new hat for his brithday.

The hostess provided my favorite part of the evening!

A chocolate fountain.
