Liberty Lake

I'm sure it's not surprising that I took quite a few pictures
in Spokane.  This was our last trip to the old house,
the home that John grew up in.
 We had a lovely visit. 
 Cheesy little Norah : )

 Daddy
Snuggling with Grandma Barbie
She is pulling herself up on everything now : )
A wonder how many times they were in this spot, 
her cooking, him keeping her company.

Such a lovely view of the lake in the fall.
The backyard : )

They even found an old dance card.
It was fun watching them reminisce and talk about their history.

Three generations, cooking together.  : )
More to come tomorrow....

I spent the entire day encouraging her as she had accident after accident. She managed to pee in her potty about 4 times and everywhere else about 347 times. I was so stressed out, so was she. At one point she peed on the floor and looked up at me...
