Mother's Day Weekend in Washington

Last Thursday Jeff and Astrid and I drove over to Washington to surprise Jeff's Mom for Mother's Day weekend! We arrived, weary, at thier doorstep at 10pm and she was totally surprised. (we had let Lee in on the secret the night before).

It was a wonderful weekend mixed with relaxing with his parents and also visiting some dear friends (The Waldens and the Davises). We were also lucky to meet Lee and Diane's next-door-neighbors Shirley and Frank who let Astrid borrow their rocking horse for the weekend. We had heard so much about these folks over time, but they always seem to be out of town when we are there for a visit...

Grandma Diane and Grandpa Lee we love you!

here are a few pics from the weekend - - - one of my cameras ran out of battery part way through the weekend, so there are not as many as usual!

p.s. My brother Frank is here and we are having fun catching up! More later...
