Nana visits the PNW

Nana came for a visit!


After breakfast one day, we walked down to the beach, to watch the ferries come in.
Fi was more interested in eating the rocks than collecting -


Nana convinced her to collect instead.





Fi loves her Nana!

Breakfast must be the only time I have a camera.

Here we are, back at our breakfast spot in Edmonds. Look at this great stare, straight at my phone.


And the pensive, "I'm-holding-my-spoon-close-to-my-heart" look.
"Wait, is that food I see, headed my way? Fantastic!"

Ah, I love putting words in her mouth. Cuz real soon, they are going to be coming out of her mouth.....

Time to celebrate!

G has been working on the passage of SSB 6280 in Washington State for several years (!) now. It finally passed, so we celebrated!




G and D were instrumental in passing the bill.

Here is the formal pic with the Governor...

(yes, apparently my daughter is a redhead!)

Fi turns one!

This sweet girl turned one! It's amazing how fast the time goes. She had a lovely party, many friends in attendance. D made her a chair with her name carved in...


She was more interested in her bottle than the cake - we'll see how long she can withstand the lure of sugar!

Congratulations Fi! Happy Birthday!
