Grandpa's Visit

Grandpa Ollmann has been here 4 days, and we have been busy going and doing fun things. Thursday we went to the zoo and had a good time doing all the fun things watching the walrus talk and do tricks, see the sharks out and about, and play in the kids zone. We also got to touch some starfish, well everyone did but me. I was helping Hayden use one finger to touch gently. Last time we went with Grandma Ollmann and Auntie Lisa, it had started to rain and we were unable to let Hayden play in the kid's zone. Good news both Grandpa and Hayden had a good time, specially on the spider web.

On Friday we went to Snoqualmie Falls, which is about one hour north of us, just east of Seattle. The falls is taller than Niagara Falls, and absolutely amazing. We got some great pictures, plus we took a hike to the lower observance deck. Of course Jon has to go out of his way to take some great pictures. Here is a look. They are standing on a tree stump that is about 10 feet high. Yes they both had to climb to the top to pose.

Today was a little less exciting. I had to work around noon, so we took it easy and decided spending a couple hours in the car with Hayden wasn't something we wanted to do again. Tonight for dinner we had bacon wrapped sirloins, twice-baked potatoes, and green beans. Hayden even wanted to help feed me with my own fork. It is pretty cute and we got it on video, so check out the video bar. Then after dinner the boys finger painted. We got some great pictures, and everyone had a good time.

This is mostly the end results, but they had a blast and Hayden got pretty messy. I will put the rest of the pictures on flickr. In the mean time don't forget to check out the 3 new videos. Hope everyone's weekend is going as well as ours. Wishing everyone was here!
