We had a visitor.  A dear friend whom Caroline grew up with as neighbors, then Kindergarten and classmates, is currently residing in the US of A, New York area to be exact, as an au pair and we made use of one of her free weekends and turned it into a sightseeing visit of sorts.

Picked her up from the Airport here, been busy ever since she stepped off that plane with birthday pickups, movies, Seattle sightseeing tour, Snoqualmie falls with a short hike, Tacoma by night (which some of you might know is my favorite) and then Olympia, our State Capital and a little tour of the Capital and downtown as a last hurrah before the she left us again.
It was a wonderful, short, fun, and memorable visit to see the two little girls all grown up and getting together and getting along like no time has passed at all!! It did us all good to have this little blast from the past and, who knows, maybe we will be on our way over there for a weekend of fun in these upcoming months. You never know what life will bring you and before you know it, it will take you to the most wonderful places!!
