So...first of all I knew this was going to be a fantastic trip because it started out like this:
Running into Michael Johns from American Idol at the Phoenix airport. I don't know where he was going but we had a nice awkward conversation and got this great picture out of it!

maybe you'll recognize him from this photo
The trip just got better from there! It was a very relaxing trip. We spent lots of time with family and lots of time just hanging out. Emmie got to meet her Coleman grandparents for the first time and she took to them like she had known them forever! She did spend one day cutting a molar...that was a cranky day...but other than that she had a great time! She LOVES her cousins!
Our first family outing was to Dave and Carrie's house in Olympia
The little girls giving Grampa Dance lessons

Your visit looked so fun! I can't believe how big Emmie is getting. Your Michael Johns pics is pretty funny- at first I wondered why you were standing by some creepy guy!
We LOVED seeing you! Thanks for the visit - I always feel like I've known you so much longer than just the 2 times we've visited with each other! The girls miss you all too - Hallie said the next day "where Emmie? where baby Emmie?" I guess the next time we see each other is China? Wow!
