Lynden Whirlwind





James and I played tennis against Krista and her doubles partener Julia...yep, the beat us.









James, Nicole, Jenny, and Evan all crammed together on the couch.


Jessica's lookin a little sly...



After our time in Seattle we got to pop up to Lynden for 1 1/2 days with our family. Jessica was nice enough to come pick us up from Seattle, and then we had a joint family dinner on Sunday evening. Monday was really nice - James and I slept in for the first time since we'd been home, and then I hung out with my mom all day cuz she took a day off from work. I got to watch Krista play a tennis match at Sehome High School, and she won - whoo-hoo! And Hailey and Aleah and I made some pretty sweet dandelion crowns...good times. James got to spend the day with his sister, and then we all had pizza for dinner that night and played some apples-to-apples. It was a super quick trip home, but so good to see family! Lois took a personal day on Tuesday to drive us to the airport, and we got to have a really nice long chat with her. Hopefully we'll get to come home this summer (again, crossing fingers).

Oh, Krissy...if only you knew that James and I let you both win so as not to crush your spirits the day before a big match. but this summer there will be no holding back!
