Coming to America

We had a nice visit from our friend Erika the other weekend when she came up to hang out and meet Isla. She was kind enough to take some family portraits of us, dogs included. We are quite the circus and really appreciated her help!



Last week the kiddos and I "took a hop" back to the States on a tanker. We traveled space available with some friends of ours and I won't go into the gory details of 8 hours on a refueling plane, but we made it.



Patrick left for Greece the same day and his crew came through the terminal while we were waiting so we got to wave one last goodbye.



Once we mastered our jetlag we started with some visits. Here are Isla meeting Grams and Brennan trying out a new bike. He ended up preferring to walk the bike rather than ride.



A little sibling love.



Patrick sent me some beautiful roses for my 30th birthday!
