Tia Carissa loved to be lulled awake by Belize and Rio's melodious piano duets.
Downtown at the Mayer's office, taking Abeulo out to lunch, or was it the other way around? :)
Belize is obsessed with the market, she mainly likes it so much because that is where Beulo takes her to buy salmon (and if you know Belize, you know how much she likes salmon). She's been talking about going to the market with him for months.

We also picked up a bouquet of tulips for Great-Grandma Gregg's birthday while she's staying at my parents. Belize insisted they be pink and gently kissed each blossom. Then she was too shy to give the to Grandma, but I think she still liked them. :)
Eating at the famous Crumpet Shop. Hmmmm, just thinking about them is making my mouth water. Here is Belize trying to fit the whole crumpet in her mouth!

Pacific Science Center outing with Paul, Anessa and their newest addition, Addison (Cooper, their dog had to stay in the car, poor Cooper, he missed out).


Michelle and her friend Brenna invited me to a fashion show downtown. It was bizarrely interesting but the company was fantastic!

Belize had a date with Abuelo riding the light rain and splashing in the puddles (is that in the International District?)
Bro and I finally found Abuelo and Belize. Belize fell asleep on his shoulder listening to the Nordstrom piano player.
Abuela teaching Rio how to make the perfect maza for tomales.

Soon to be wed, D-rock and Belle. Aw, aren't they cute?

The Olsens came over for tomales and some serious wii playing. Above is Ashley, Meg and Belize playing dancedancerevolution and below is the whole gang minus Julie (maybe she was taking the picture). Meg, Belize, Kate, Caleb, Lance, and Ashely. Belize is also LOVES her cousins and has been talking about seeing them for months. She waited on the front lawn until they arrived.

Aunt Sarah and Belize getting some cuddle/silly time.

I don't know why we didn't get a picture of the whole party. The Garcias had a party for the West Seattle Crew and pretty much everyone was their except Keily (in Chicago). These are the Perrins with new addition Colton- so cute!

A trip to the aquarium with Abuelo and Abuela.

I think Rio is helping Tia Carissa play Farmville in this pic.
Belize and Nala are great buds, although Belize tries to boss her around in Spanish all the time which Nala ignores.
Getting teased by Buelo
Rio wasn't fazed by Nala, Nala on the other hand learned quite quickly to run the other way! :) Rio ran around yelling NADA!! NADA!!!
