ANNIVERSARY UP NORTH

Happy Family

Peter and Jenn
Karis and Liam

Harry and I treated ourselves to a short vacation for our 39th anniversary. We headed north to see Pete and Jenn and Karis and Liam in Otis Orchards, Washington. The ten-hour-long roadtrip gave us lots of opportunities to reflect on our simple little wedding in my Mom and Dad's den so many years ago.

We were met with lots of snow on the drive. The weather slowed us down quite abit, and prompted our decision to stop and spend the night in Cascade at the Ashley Inn.
Winter's Last Hurrah?

The snowstorm that greeted us in Cascade let up by morning.

We had a great visit with Peter and Jenn and Karis and Liam. It was good to see Liam looking so well considering the issues he is having with his stomach. We keep praying that problem will resolve itself quickly. Karis surprised us with her ability to recognize letters and numbers so well. Pretty impressive for a two-year-old. Besides grabbing a few meals in town, Jenn prepared a special Irish-themed dinner for us...corned beef and cabbage. That's the first time that Harry and I have ever had that! That was a special treat.
