It must be the season for visits from aunts and uncles, as my sister and brother-in-law visited the week between Christmas and New Years, to meet Eva. It so good to have them with us, and there was clearly a mutual admiration between them and Eva. In fact, if I may be so bold, Bob is baby-crazy. Apparently there is truth to the statement that the bigger they are, the harder they fall. Eva seems to have found a soft spot in his heart, and vice versa. Diana was wonderful with Eva, and taught us a thing or two along the way.
We really enjoyed having them stay with us. This was their first time visiting us in Seattle, but hopefully not their last. We ventured into the city a couple times to visit Pike Place Market, Seattle Center and the Space Needle, drove by the Troll in Fremont, and of course made a visit to the Harley store on 1st Ave. We also drove out to the mountains to see the views on the other side of Snoqualmie Pass, and had lunch at the Rogue Brewery here in Issaquah, and enjoyed and some of my favorite beers. And I would be a complete fool if I didn't acknowledge (with glee) that Diana and Bob (voluntarily) watched Eva one night while we went on a date. A DATE! Do you folks have any idea how long it has been since we had one of those???? Dinner at one of Tom Douglas' restaurants and then Avatar. Oh man, did it feel good.
I've got three words for Diana and Bob: Come back soon!
