Grandma on the beach

Some wine, a nice view, a bit of sun, and busy children on the beach
help to buffer grandma from the chilly evening on Orcas Island. -Gerrit

Weekend away

A couple weekends ago, Sarah and I left the boys with their cousins
for a weekend in Friday Harbor. We biked onto the ferry, which was
convenient. Here is Sarah on that Saturday standing in British camp.
We toured the island on bike - a good 25+ mile trek. -Gerrit

Out comes the sun

It has been a warm winter, allowing us some meals out on the deck. -

Easter egg hunt

Sunday was Rita's Easter egg hunt. Very fun. I thought we'd end up
soaked, but the good weather held until right as we were leaving (or
maybe we left when it started to downpour). -Gerrit

Easter egg coloring

On Sunday, Henry and max colored Easter eggs at grandma janet's. We
were on a tight schedule, so it was but a short stop for us between
other parties. The boys had a great time, and were reluctantcto
leave. -Gerrit
