We just got back from a near two week vacation. It's funny how I feel like I need a vacation from my vacation! We had to change our plans to go to Seattle at the last minute due to the passing of my Grandpa. I had the opportunity to see him a few days before he died. It was hard to see him as he was not the Grandpa I grew up with at all, but right before I left he looked at me and told me he loved me. It was a wonderful way to remeber my last moments with him. We stayed in Jerome for a few days to visit with family which was really neat. It is not often that all of my siblings are home at once.
We then made our way to Seattle and had a great time with Ben's parents who of course spoiled us to death. It was fun to take Tyson to all the Seattle sites. At least he can say he has been there, even though he won't remeber. We will miss going to Seattle, but are looking forward to exploring Portland when Ben's parent's move there in a few months. Tyson did great on the plane, but was a little cranky during our visit because he was getting 4 teeth! They are all on the bottom so it looks a little funny but cute! My mother-in-law gave me one of the "Vampire" books to read while I was there(does anyone know what I am talking about?) I know it sounds weird but you can't judge me until you have read one, they are addicting! I read one in two days. My sister-in-law has the other two and I am dying to get them!! Here are some recent pictures...
