San Jose Visitors

We had a fun visit from some California relatives this past week. Dirk's sister, Patti and her daughter, Marissa flew up along with John's Grandma Dorothy (Dirk's Mom). Jane had yet to meet these relatives so it was an extra special time. We have had ideal weather here in Seattle lately and have been trying to live it up with as much time spent outside as possible including outings to the zoo and parks galore. Another added source of entertainment for the kids this past week was the installation of a new roof on our house. Will was especially excited about all the trucks and workers coming and going and has been pretending to be a "roofer" all week.
