We are counting down the hours until Thomas arrives home from Burning Man tomorrow afternoon. In the meantime, we have had a very fun week with Bubba Joe. He is the best dad ever for coming to help me out while Thomas has been gone, and special thanks to Pam for loaning him out for the week!
We started out the week with big fun in the backyard on the trampoline and swings.
Oh, and also big fun in the high chair, from which Imogen has recently figured out how to escape (she also got out of Mama's bed this morning by herself, which I was not present to witness - luckily it's only 6 inches off the carpeted floor, and there was no crying involved).
On Thursday, our one very warm afternoon this week, we headed to the little beach near us on the Columbia River with Nona and Papa Mr. Vic Victor. Elliot is no stranger to this beach and had a grand time digging in the sand and running around.
It was Imogen's first time at the beach, and she got herself good and sandy (including the inside of her mouth - remind me when this phase ends?).
And here is the little beach bunny snuggling with Nona and Bubba Joe.
We had an adventure at the zoo on Friday, and then we had a nice dinner picnic yesterday with some good pals. Here is Elliot giving Imogen yet more underdogs on the swings.
We'll be sad to see Bubba Joe head back to Colorado tomorrow (you'd think we'd be sick of him by now, wouldn't you?). But Papa's arrival home will be a good trade. I think Thomas will be glad to be home, too. Apparently there was a giant dust storm on the playa yesterday, just before the burning of the Man. Hurry home, Papa! There's no dust here, and we miss you!
