Uncle Dan! Uncle Dan!

Dwayne’s oldest brother, a resident of CA, occasionally comes up our way for business, as his company (and boss) reside in the Issaquah area.  Not exactly close to our little town, but significantly closer than the 15 hour car trip from his house to ours!

He had the evening free before he flies back home tomorrow afternoon, so we got to have him over for dinner.  We haven’t seen his family, except a few times on Skype, since last July in Sun River.  Kyla remembers him best and met him at the door for a big hug before he could get fully inside. 

It took the others a few more minutes to warm up, but by the end of dinner and through story time, Wesley was firmly ensconced in Dan’s arms. Kyla spent a lot of time there, too! 

Dan properly admired the caterpillars, the tadpoles, the indecipherable stories about preschool.  He is a kid magnet.

Luckily for the children, I was really craving chocolate, so I cut up fruit and melted chocolate chips for dessert. I put a bib on all the kids, but Kyla worked her away around that obstacle!

Dwayne and I always like it when someone else reads to the kids.

Next time, I hope he brings Deborah.  And the cousins, but we’ll see them all this July.

Come back soon!
