"How bout dis?"

Those are the famous words of my oh so cute little niece Providence Joy. Translated to proper English "How about this?" is a phrase she picked up from Jon and it is a solid part of her vocabulary. She even has me saying it more than I used to.

I just got back from a wonderful weekend down in Seattle with the two Cross girls (my nieces) and my Family (of course I saw long time high school friend Doris-Rai as well...but I consider her family).

I had a packed weekend with lots of activities, including eating Pho noodle soup for the first time with Anna in Seattle, going to the Zoo with PJ, Rosemary and Amie and Shopping all day President's Day with all the girls in my family. The shopping trip was a huge success and I have a feeling PJ is going to be a shopper, so watch out Amie, you might have many shopping trips ahead of you.

The sun managed to peek out from behind the clouds a few days for me. I was enjoying every minute of the warm 50 degree weather. Especially since a few weeks ago I was looking at temperatures like this:
I miss the Fam already and holding those dear little girls.

And of course the cutest thing was seeing PJ hold her little sister. She sure does love Rosemary and will not go anywhere without Rosemary right along with her.


Well the trip and short vacation were wonderful and relaxing but over too quickly. Now it is back to the work day and normal activities.
