Grammy's Visit - Part 1

We really had a fabulous time with Grammy. We're so glad that she was able to visit us for a few days and the boys loved having her around and wished that she could stay longer. I wish we didn't live so far away from our families, from both sides. And yet, I think that's what makes each and every visit so special. We don't get to see each other that often and it makes those short moments that we spend with our loved ones more memorable.

Day 2 - Dec 21 2011


We were lucky to have a few sunny days while Grammy was here, especially since right after she flew back home to Oklahoma, we had one whole week of non- stop rainy days. This is Island Lake Park which is only a few minutes away from our house. Grammy and the boys decided to walk to the park while enjoying the sun. Daniel and I drove there instead and met with them a few minutes later.


Grammy was having fun riding the scooter.


After the park, we went to downtown Poulsbo to walk in the park and around the quaint little town.


The boardwalk that you see in the pictures connects two parks: American Legion Park and Liberty Bay Park, which leads us to the downtown and the marina. 


'Nice to meet you sir'. This bronze statue was created to honour former Poulsbo Mayor, Maurice Lindvig that served the town from 1969 - 1976.


Hanging out at the park before heading towards the town.


Our last stop, the Sluys' Bakery for some sweet treats.

  2. I love grammy trying out the scooter! I did it myself last year and had so much fun riding it as well. Wanted to have one myself lol.

    Once again you managed to capture some beautiful moments with your camera!

    I know... when not being able to see each other often it makes the moments *that* you see each other more precious! Enjoy them!

    The bakery looks sooo good :)
