Visit from friends

In town to see her sister's little "nubbins," Carol's old friend Lauren and her husband Neil paid a visit to Ms. Bea (and M&D).



Beatrice is mildly amused by our enthusiastic rendition of "Old McDonald."








Bea tries to extract Lauren's eye. She may be small, but she packs a good punch!

D's B-day celebration

M, D & Bea celebrated D's birthday with a picnic lunch at D's office.



















Daddy! You missed a clause -see? Let me highlight it for you. Sheesh.

Party animal!









Our favorite sitting pose as of late. Does that look comfortable to you?

Visit from Aunt Jules and Uncle Brian

Aunt Julie and Uncle Brian came all the way from the windy city to visit Ms. Bea (oh- and M&D). Beatrice took one look at them and declared they were the coolest and could stay for the weekend. She found herself out on the town with her peeps, perusing delicacies at the Pike Place Market, shopping for shades at Nordstroms, and beating the bike path. She was entertained by her hilarious Aunt, whose finger puppet show sent Bea into peals of laughter. No one can do voices like she can! Everyone was sad when they left -- another visit is in order very soon.
