December 10th - Hi! We had an awesome time in Bozeman with Brent's brother & his wife & 2 boys the week before Thanksgiving! They are Curt, Lisa, Oscar (4) & Aldin (2)! The kids had a blast and Annalee was very brave about meeting so many new people at once. She wasn't overly social but she didn't cling to us so that was great. We also saw family friends of Brent's as well as high school friends. Brent & Curt were able to go hunting although they didn't have any luck until we were gone (then Curt got a Bull Elk!) - oh, well. Brotherly bonding time, anyway! We were able to play in the snow, see a museum of the Rockies with Dinosaurs and a Planetarium which Walt loved (he's really into Space right now!). They also had a nice Children's mus.
In Seattle we were with Brent's parents, saw his Aunt, Uncle , cousins & their children - more fun! And very exciting for me - we saw my cousin Renee with her husband Doug and son Sam (their girls were with another branch of Doug's family). They came in from OR for T'day as well. We took the kids to the Space Needle (although foggy that day it was still fun), rode the monorail (yes, the one that had a little "run-in" with another one shortly after we left Seattle!), went to on of the best Children's Museums I've ever seen!, a small fun aquarium in Tacoma as well as train yards & port of entry on the way. We were exhausted when we got home to MD but had loads of fun.
