APRIL 8-12 AUNT JULIANNE AND COUSIN ISAAC CAME TO VISIT US FROM MI. UNCLE JOHN WAS JUDGING A SNOW BOARD CONTEST AT COPPER MT. 2 HRS FROM HERE. ED WENT TO SKI AND SPEND THE NIGHT W/ HIM ON FRIDAY AND BROUGHT HIM BACK HERE ON SATURDAY. THEY ALL LEFT SUNDAY (EASTER MORNING). AMBER & ISAAC SIZED E/O UP AND ALMOST IMMEDIATELY STARTED ACTING LIKE SIBLINGS. AMBER ANTAGONIZED HIM IN THE CAR, MAKING NOISES THAT ANNOYED HIM. HE TOLD HER NO EACH TIME AND SHE SMILED AND KEPT IT UP. THE 4TH TIME HE SAID "NO AMMER, STOP THAT". JULIANNE & I BURST OUT LAUGHING, IT SOUNDED SO PRECIOUS & SWEET COMING FROM POOR, FRUSTRATED ISAAC AND "AMMER" FED OFF OUR LAUGHS WHICH WE TRIED TO CONTAIN BUT COULDN'T. ISAAC CAME DOWN W/ A BAD EAR INFECTION AND COLD. HE WAS VERY CONGESTED THE WHOLE TIME BUT WAS A REAL TROOPER. AMBER KEPT GETTING IN HIS SPACE TRYING TO HUG & KISS HIM WHICH HE TYPICAL WASN'T IN THE MOOD FOR. IT WAS NEAT TO SEE HOW THEY ARE BOTH ABOUT THE SAME HEIGHT BUT HE IS A "TAD" BIT STOCKIER. WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING HOW THEY PICK BACK UP W/ E/O WHEN WE GO TO MI IN JULY.

A QUICK TRIP TO NAPA VALLEY
LAST MONDAY WE CAME HOME AND LAST THURSDAY WENT TO NAPA VALLEY (A LAST MINUTE TRIP) TO VISIT MY FRIEND KIMBERLY, HER HUBBY & 3 KIDS. HER MOM AND MY FRIEND JENNIFER FROM PCB FLEW OUT THERE LAST TUESDAY. WE WENT TO A REDWOOD FOREST WHICH I HAD BEEN WANTING TO DO AND IT WAS A MAGICAL PLACE. THEY HAD 1300 & 1400 YEAR OLD TREES WHICH WAS AMAZING TO SEE. WE ALSO WENT TO GOAT ROCK BEACH (ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS BEACHES IN THE STATES). THE POUNDING SURF WAS INCREDIBLY POWERFUL AND HUMBLING. IT WAS MY FIRST VISIT TO NAPA VALLEY AND NORTHERN CA. IT'S GORGEOUS AND I COULD MOVE THERE IN A MINUTE. THE LITTLE TOWNS ARE QUAINT, PICTURESQUE AND FRIENDLY (AND EXPENSIVE). KIMBERLY LIVES IN THE MOUNTAINS AND RIGHT ACROSS HER STREET IS A VINEYARD. THE VINEYARDS COVER THE MOUNTAINS. EVERYTHING WAS GREEN, FLOWERS IN BLOOM ETC. KIMBERLY'S KIDS WERE VERY LOVING WITH AMBER AND SHE HAD A BLAST. I WANT TO GO BACK NEXT SPRING WITH ED.
