Time with Family

This was the moment we'd all been waiting for! Together again... We took two vehicles and picked up the Brown's and Wieweck's at SeaTac Airport on Saturday morning. The lucky ones got to ride with me and get a second tour of the airport since I missed the turn and had to drive the loop again (Ha! Bet they wish they'd chosen the other driver). There was a limo in front of them at the curb and as we drove up, it drove away. I told them that I'd hired it to pick them up, but he wanted more money and so wouldn't stick around.
The weather on Saturday couldn't have been nicer. The kids had a great time playing outdoors.


Whitni swingin'
Brynne & Maddie
Maddie & Whitni - they were great pals!
Grandpa Hansen had to get out the little train he made when our kids were smaller.
Torey seemed happy to be the little caboose.

All the kids loved it! Well, except Whitni - she wasn't sure about climbing on.

Just hanging out and catching up.

Whitni sharing her M&M's with Mommy...
and Grandpa Wieweck.
Kids working in Grandpa Hansen's shop.
Sunday morning -
And I thought taking pictures of 3 kids was difficult!
The Brown Family
We told Jordan he was one of the cousins/kids and therefore a part of the picture.
He was happy to oblige. Aren't they a ca-yute bunch?!? You too, Jordan!
A huge SHOUT out to Jerry & Sue for hosting us and letting us use the Hansen Hotel for a night as well as Mom & Dad Hansen.
Thank you!!
Aunt Marge making sure she has her paperwork, etc together for their cruise.

Getting some last-minute quality time together before departure.

Silly Morgan!


We made it to the Seattle waterfront all in one piece and with all the luggage (we hope).
The baggage handler (?) was great with the kids and let them help put tags on.

We sure wish we were going to Alaska with you!

Love this picture of Momma and her chicks!

Bye everyone!!! Wait a minute - Aunt Marge, Mark & Uncle Lee -- aren't you supposed to be going, too?? You mean you're gonna let Laurie take the kids all by herself? Don't worry, we made sure everybody went! We hope everyone has great fun! Send a postcard...or call (ulp! at $5 a minute - I don't think so). We were so glad to have them for a quick weekend. Can't wait till they get back so we can hear all about their trip to Alaska!

Ha ha. LOVE the pic of Brynne pinching up Whitni's cheeks....for what....to get her to smile? I can see that Morgan has the Porterfield trait of sticking out her tongue for pictures. How fun!! :)
