Fun Seattle Trip.

This past weekend was such a fun one for our family. We got to go to Seattle and visit our family and search for places to live when we move there in a few months.
Here's Micah with uncle Josh, cousin Mason and aunt Rebecca.

Nicki just loves her aunt Lisa. In fact the girls got to have their traditional sleep over with aunt Lisa and Uncle Josh that always happens when we visit Seattle. They watched a movie, made cookies, and had pancakes for breakfast. Nicki especially loves this tradition since aunt Lisa lives in the city. In fact Nicole always begs me to take her to New York City because they have such tall buildings there. She's a funny kid! Like mother like daughter I guess.
Micah and aunt Lisa. By the way, this is how he was the entire trip, smiling at everyone all day long.
Nicki and Kaitlin standing in front of uncle Mike's house, enjoying the view of Lake Washington. For a few weeks now we have been talking to the girls about our visit to Washington, and Nicki just seemed so excited about it. When we landed we told Nicki that we were in Washington and she said: "No, this is not Washington, let's go to the real Washington". Well, here she is enjoying the "real Washington" which later we found out was uncle Mike's house on Lake Washington. This kid sure has expensive taste!!!
While in WA, we got to also visit my sister Erka, her husband Paul, and most important, their little girl Julia. She is so cute! I can't wait to move there to be closer to her.
Here we are at a restaurant in Kirkland where Erka and Paul treated us to some delicious desserts.
Micah and grandma Chan.
Three generations of Chan men.


Rich and his two brothers all had baby boys this year. In the Chinese calendar it happens to be the year of the pig, so here are our three little pigs!
Here's Micah and his cousin Austen.

And Micah and his other cousin Mason.
And the three little pigs together at last.
Our family enjoying a Sunday afternoon at uncle Mike's house.
For our last night in WA we got to go visit grandma Cindy and grandpa Dan. We had a huge bbq and just got to have lots of fun playing with them and aunt Michelle.

Here are the girls and Michelle making some zucchini bread together. It was delicious.
Finally, here's Nicki at the airport. It was such a fun trip for us that we just can't wait to move there next year.

It was so fun to hang out with you guys! Ashton had a blast playing with Niki and I loved meeting Micah. Once Aaron heard you guys would be in town there was NO WAY he was missing out on the weekend! Maybe when you're finally living in Seattle you can make a weekend trip over our way sometime! We'd love it!

Okay Juli, I love the "three little pigs." The Chan Family has been truly blessed this year. All your pictures make me feel homesick. I am so happy you will be moving so close to so much family!
