This weekend was super busy. Starting with Friday, Roderick and I got the chance to meet Noah Andrew Pallat for the very first time. He is such a doll. Noah's mom and I taught at Stevenson together. Her daughter Izzy was also in my third grade class a few years ago. We met at Green Lake, went for a walk and drank coffee together. Roderick has yet another BFF.

On Saturday, we spent the whole day moving out of our condo. We are officially residents of the South end (for the time being). We put almost everything we own in storage except for Roderick's bedroom set. We were just too excited to use it!
Not a bad view for an 8 month old eh?
Sunday was a little more emotional. We spent the day on Camano Island doing two very important things. 1) Celebrating my mom's birthday and 2) Celebrating the wonderful life of my Grandpa Aldo who passed away in October. His house closed on Monday and before he passed, he requested his ashes be spread over the bank at sunset. You see, Grandpa had a sense of humor. A few years back, he was working in his beautiful garden and accidentally fell over the cliff. Don't worry, he was not hurt. It was at that time he told my mom he would like to have his ashes spread over the bank... as he had already been there once before and liked the view. We sure do miss our Grandpa and we are SO sad to see his house sell. But as my mom says, the magic is no longer there without him anyway. We love you Grandpa Aldo! We thank God we had you for 80 wonderful years.
