Seattle - Visiting Family - Sept 09

I came home for five days to visit my family before the fall gets fully underway.  As always, I had a great time with devilish little Brenden. 

He's very into giving everyone a kiss these days...

Aunt Raisin or Aunt Lindsay?  How long will I be confused over this??

Yes, I TOTALLY know I'm adorable...picture please.

Chillin on the couch, Behen style...

I had to quickly learn the signals for "I'm done walking" and "Put me down, I want to walk again!"

He conned Grandma into reading the same Xmas book over and over and over...

Watcha got in your hand Erin??  Hmmm???

Three Behen cousins...

Brenden's future girlfriend...I was not fast enough to catch the kiss he gave her later...

4th of July 2009

Fourth of July in Hoboken gave us all an excellent view of the Macy's fireworks show on the Hudson River...a mere few blocks from my condo.  Great view from my roof!

Kat's 30th Bday - June 2009

We celebrated Kat's 30th birthday at Aji Bar & Lounge in Brooklyn.  Live Salsa band completed the night perfectly!

Cape Cod June 2009

A Cape Cod adventure with Salsa International... We stayed at Mike's parents' vacation home and I enjoyed my first ever seafood feast!  

A look at the lobsters before we purchased them at the fresh seafood market.  I nearly came unglued when the claws continued snapping long after the suckers died...ick.

Jim and Mike manning the grill...

Lobsters, fresh and ready to eat!

Mike can't wait...straight off the grill...

Apparently this is Well Fleet's best oyster spot.  I'll take their word for it.  I had enough adventure with the seafood grilling...can't do the slippery and slimy.

Fun at the beach...

Luis and I managed to get up on the Star...albeit, ever so briefly!  :)

What goes up must come down.  Quickly!
