Celebrating Mimi's birthday

Because every party needs a performance!

She wore the birthday hat all day, even to school. Total goof.

Mommy's turn to get dressed up with a crown.

Daddy made a delicious halibut dinner for Mimi's birthday.

Graduates, big and small

I walked in the UW graduation ceremony on Saturday, celebrating the 'near' completion of my Phd. It was a beautiful day and a great boost of energy to finish the degree!

Bea's visit to the ER

Making the most of a visit to the doc

 

She was happy until they drew blood and then sent us over to the Children's ER to run tests. Strep Throat, poor girl! Lily provided comic relief by being a total goofball.
