"Come live with me and be my love,/ And we will all the pleasures prove,/ That valleys, groves, hills and fields,/ Woods or steepy mountains yields." --Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593)

Back from Washington

We arrived home Wednesday night after spending two weeks in Washington with my family. It was an action packed visit with plenty of socializing with cousins for Claire. My sister Christine and her family were also visiting from Indiana, so we had the whole Lagerwey clan together. Nate drove over for a long weekend as my parents rented a house on the Olympic Peninsula that was big enough to hold all 12 grandchildren and their parents. We spent time at the beach, hiking, and even got in a mountain bike ride together. Claire has now been on both the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts this summer! Thanks Mom and Dad for hosting us and all you did to organize the family reunion; we had a terrific visit!

Can't believe all the blondness! What a beautiful bunch! Love the picture of Claire and her Dad in the kayak and love the picture of her alone on the beach.
