0062 -- visit from the folks

It's taken me a while to update since we had my folks in town and then the day after they left I went right back to work. We had a lovely visit with them and I can't wait for them to come back!! My folks arrived the day after x-mas. Jordan and I hadn't been sleeping so well so we decided to get up super early and go watch the sunrise at a local park.


We had also been having some issues with our kitty, Larry David. He was showing us signs of being sick and it felt very similar to when we lost our other kitty Izzy. Fortunately, he's feeling better and it seems to just have been a bug. Phew!
Watched the sunrise and the sunset all in the day! Glorious!

Mom had a few places that she just had to go, and Powell's Books was one of them. It's an entire city block and probably 3 or 4 stories high. They have everything and then some!!
We also took my mum on four mile hike through the Hoyt Arboretum. It was so pretty and I can't wait to do more hikes there when it's a bit warmer!





We also had to walk mom through the Lone Fir Cemetery. How lovely is this headstone for a husband and wife?

We also go our first home visit with baby Phelyn!!!

And she almost got her first bite of cookie butter! 

My folks had downloaded bejeweled and by the time they left the four of us were all addicted to it!

New Years Eve was quiet and fun. My dad made us all chicken wings, the CatCamp came over with Stephen's dad, and we all passed out before midnight!!

Update again soon!
