Yesterday when we were in Seattle Jackson got to meet a bunch of his family that he had not yet met. He had met some of my side, but now it was time to meet some from the maternal side. He met his Uncle Mike, Uncle Josh and Aunt Cam, great gram, tia abuela (great aunt) and tio abuelo (great uncle). I was able to get a few pictures [ there are a lot that I missed, an issue that I will fix next time, which I am afraid will not be until Thanksgiving.] But of those ones that we took here are a few of the good ones. Jackson was real trooper. The drive up on Friday was very long, including 2.5 hours just north of Fife on I-5, where we only went two miles. A tanker truck had flipped and spilled gas on the roadway. [All in all our drive from Eugene to Seattle took over 8.5 hours. I had anticipated a 6 hour trip which included two x half hour Jackson breaks.] He likes the car [or did before then] when it is moving. Being stagnant was not fun. The drive back today was a shade over five hours, including one stop for Jackson. The point of this was Jackson travels well and did great with so many new people. This post will not replace the weekly update which will be later tomorrow.

Seattle Birthday Party
Yesterday we had a belated Birthday for Mary and her mom in Seattle. It was good day in Seattle. I was able to snap a few pictures from the party. Mary and her mom both got suet bar holders and a suet bar for feeding birds.
