Visitors

We had visitors last weekend! Brad's parents came for a few days. Dad had a few of his students participating in the All Northwest Music Festival held in Bellevue this year, so it was the perfect excuse for them to come.

Brad and his Dad were pretty busy with their responsibilities but we still found time to play. The girls and I took Mom to the zoo...

In front of the Komodo Dragon

 and helped Lainy practice the new violin that Grandpa brought.

Isn't she darling? We discovered that she is a natural at the violin. (Maybe it's in her genes or something.) But seriously, she had her positioning and bow hold down after very few instructions, and played along with a CD for over a half hour straight. It made us smile.

Saturday we went to listen to the All Northwest Orchestra practice. They were kind enough to go through their whole program for us (so we didn't feel too bad about missing their concert Sunday night). We loved it.

We also went to for a nice drive to Alki beach, to Church on Sunday, and otherwise just played at home.

It was so nice to see Brad's parents. They are so much fun to have around. We love them!
