MORE family!

Jason and his clan (the same group we met in Philadelphia), including his fiance' Michelle, arrived in Seattle the day after we arrived from New Jersey and Grandpa (Mike's Dad) and Grandma Debbie arrived a few days after that. What a busy time with family (and fun of course!)!
Here is a family picture, including Michelle, that Jack and Jonah did NOT want to cooperate for. It seems to always be like that... The kids were all playing so nicely, but then you ask them to stand and smile for a minute and they just cannot do it. Luckily Paige is hamming it up!

Paige and Kevin (11 years old), Michelle's nephew, played so nicely. They played a lot of Frisbee! Here they are taking a smile break from a game of catch.

Grandma Debbie and Grandpa went geocaching with Paige and Mike one afternoon. Paige and Grandma Debbie really enjoyed the blackberries and the peaches (on a tree) they found on their adventure. I heard that Paige was supposed to have brought a peach home for me, but for some reason, I never got it! I wonder where it went... The girl can eat!
Grandpa, Grandma Debbie and Paige.
And of course, when Carter Tull comes to town, we go to the Museum of Flight!

Mike was a bit giddy getting off of this glider simulator. Paige did this for the first time too and loved it!
Jonah is flying Jack in a "copter." Jack wasn't feeling well that day...

Grandpa and Paige did a flight simulator together!
We had such a busy and fun few weeks! But now we are all a bit tired. The kids are sleeping in a lot, I have been getting to bed before 9, and Mike has pressed the snooze button twice this week instead of going on his morning run. You all wore us out! Thank you for so much excitement and play! Don't worry. We'll be all rested by the time you come back!

Kids sleeping in? Bed before 9? Ahhh, heaven! Sounds like y'all have been BUSY! But the fun kind. Yeah, strange about that disappearing peach...
