Mom and Dad's Visit

These pictures are very random.  I updated my uploader and it puts the pictures in a random order on my post.  Does anyone else have this problem?  I know I could edit HTML and cut and paste the pictures into the order I want, but that sounds like a lot of work.  So, here it is in a completely random order.  

This is Lisa with her niece and nephews.


We went up to Oroville for the night to play basketball and crash cars...more of that to come...  We spent the night at Brian and Sandi's (Thank You!!) and met their parrot Dexter, who entertained the boys for hours.
Wade always gets teased for his "Uncle Harry" smile when he sticks his bottom teeth out.  Here Jason and Carolyn do it, Wade is kind of doing it, but not like normal.
The "Real" Sandersons all together at Chelan Convention

Remember our trip to Oroville?  Our friend Mike saved some cars out of the junkyard that still sort of ran.  They drove them up into the hills and rallied them.  They did some time trials, and when it was all said and done 2 of the cars still ran enough to get them home....2 stayed in the hills to be towed out later.
It must be a guy thing.  I had no desire to join them!!  I was content sitting on a big rock where it was nice and safe and take some pictures.  Tristan got to ride with them for a little while.

Our family


We tried out a new restaurant in town, but we sat outside and it was cold!
The gorge

Washing dishes at preps

Tiffany Sandon who lived in Milwaukee for a good part of my growing up years was at our convention.  She has been laboring on the Mexican Baja.  Was great to see her!
These two were peas in a pod all convention!!
Another surprise Milwaukee friend!!  Leana Kolbeck just moved to Seattle and came over for the weekend of convention.  Was great to see her too!  I think Owen likes her!  :)

Owen and Auntie Lisa

Can't help but love these boys!
The whole Sanderson clan!
Owen was more than done with the whole picture taking idea!

Owen and his friend Lydia who is 2.5 weeks older than him.

Sometimes it feels like I live in a ZOO!
Don't feed the bears!

Mom joined me for my day to work at the daycare.

Nothing like a sweet baby grin.
Auntie Carolyn gives Owen his first sip of soda...not really.
Story time with Auntie Lisa

As you know from a previous post, our trusses came for our house.  We have spent some time working on the house to get it ready for trusses and then to secure them in place once they were there.  My dad helped us out by working on the house everyday for a week and a half!!  Tristan showing us how he goes to the bathroom when we are working on the house.

La Brisa...our favorite restaurant!
Taking a break from work to have a little lunch.

We really enjoyed having my parents visit!  We are sad to see them leave, but look forward to a future visit!!!  Thanks for all your help with the house and with the boys!
