Rain, rain go away . . .

. . . come again some other day. We found ourselves singing this little tune a lot over Memorial Day weekend in Bellingham. Boy the weather was ugly! The only bright spot was visiting with my parents and getting to see their new house. We have been planning this trip to Bellingham for quite a while thinking my parents would have been settled in to their new home. It didn't really work out that way since they moved in the day before we came. The house was about 95% done, but we made the most of it. I unfortunately didn't get many pictures of the place as there was moving stuff everywhere. I did manage to get a picture of the kitchen - you can see that they still need cabinet doors, their fridge door and the island isn't quite finished:

I was also able to get a shot of the pantry/wine cellar that the kids played in for hours:

GrandmaGiGi also got Isla some rain boots so she could go down to the beach and throw rocks into the ocean:She liked to wear them to go outside and see the train (there are train tracks that go right below my parents house). She spent the whole weekend saying "Bye train" and waving as it went by.

Isla and Anna out in the front yard:

Papa also put up a swing for Isla, which she got to swing in when it wasn't raining. She absolutely loved swinging in it (you can't really tell from the picture so just take my word for it):
My parents house is absolutely beautiful and we can' t wait to get back there to check it out when everything is complete. Way to go Papa and GrandmaGiGi!
