Back in the 509
Last weekend Grace and I took a little trip to Spokane to visit family. My nephew Cameron was eagerly awaiting our arrival at the airport and he was Grace's little entertainer all weekend long. He did have a hard time when she cried in the car though and tried to fix the problem by plugging his ears! On Saturday we headed down to Lewiston, ID to visit my sister Becky and join them for her son Caleb's baptism. I got the whole family to keep my visit a secret, so I was able to surprise her! Caleb and Joshua also had a great time keeping Grace occupied. On Monday my sister Rachel and I went down to our old high school to see the renovations it has just been through. Wow it was so different! I kept getting all turned around because half of the halls have been reconfigured. We both felt at ease once we entered the older part of the building. The choir room is totally changed and the auditorium was chained shut. I was a little sad to see places I had spent so much time in as a teenager gone or totally changed. I have to admit that the new parts of the school are looking really cool and soon the new theater will start coming together. Rach and I spent the drive home reminiscing on high school traditions that we loved. It was fun singing old songs and cheers together. The whole weekend was a lot of fun and I am so glad I got a chance to visit my parents and that Grace had some bonding time with Nani and Nana, her cousins and her aunties and uncles! Here are some pictures of the trip.
