Tante Resi! Tante Resi!

From Resi at Home

Tante Resi came all the way from the Netherlands to visit us last month! It has been 8 years since we have seen each other, and we had a very, very special time.

Benjamin and Emma loved her and it was a constant struggle to keep her safe from "playing choo choos".

We went to Paradise at Mt. Rainier one day, where Benjamin would yell "Tante Resi! Where's Tante Resi!?" whenever Brian and him would take a different path than us. It was a beautiful view and we did our hike and got in the car just as it began to rain.

Tante Resi brought some amazing pictures of our "family tree", and she cooked a authentic Indonesian meal for dinner one night, it was delicious. (The most difficult part was finding an East Asian grocery store that wasn't overtaken with either rats or homeless people to buy all the supplies.)

We also had a BBQ at our house with Grandpa and Sherri and Aunt Sue. After that we were off to Sandpoint, ID!
