GG & GGpa's big trip to Spokane!

We had a great time last week visiting with "GG" (Great-Grandma) and Great-Grandpa Nelson. We visited/met GG'a niece and nephew that live here in Spokane, went to River front park, to Bowl and Pitcher, and various other fun spots around town. Sadly, my camera screwed up on a lot of the pictures I took, so here are just a few that worked. Enjoy! We LOVE having family visit and had a BLAST with GG and Great-Grandpa!


Great-Grandpa and Solace on the carousel. This is the only carousel pic I took that worked. This will come as a surprise to those that know Wes, but we all rode. Wes thinks it may be the first time he's ridden one of these since he was a small child. He did great, and didn't even have to barf after! :)

Everyone and Allen (GG's nephew, Wesley's first cousin once removed) at Anne's grave. Anne was GG's sister that lived and died here. We went with Allen, Anne's son, to see where she is buried, and it is quite close to our home. It was good to meet family and learn about the family ties to Spokane.

That's great that Wes rode and didn't even get sick! Next-the Tea Cups! ;)! That's a great picture of Solace on the bridge-she is her Mommy's daughter!

I would like to give props to Andrea on the tea cups! Well Met!

Also, Armour for his amazing throwing ability, Wes will have himself a couple of baseball players in no time!

And Solace for just being so darn cute!

Ender just makes me laugh, as always. Rock on little nephew!
