robyn's visit is almost over

It's been a busy week with my 8 year old granddaughter Robyn visiting even though she hasn't been with us a lot of the time. We finally figured out when everyone could spend time with her. Monday she went to the Seattle Science center with Robby (my son) and Hannah, Tuesday Katie (my daughter) took her to Deception Pass and Fort Casey to fly kites with Robyn's 7 year old cousin Mike, Wednesday Candi (my ex-wife) took Robyn and Mike down to the beach. It's a beach I used to take Robyn and Mike's parents too when they were kids. Wednesday we met up with Robyn and Katie at a school concert that Mike was in.

Yesterday we went to visit my mom, Robyn's great grandmother who lives in Federal Way, between Seattle and Tacoma. We went out to lunch at a Red Robin.

On the way back through Seattle we stopped for a doctor's appointment for Zoe and swung by the Apple store in Alderwood Mall to find out her Apple laptop battery problem was a bad battery that was covered under warranty (Yay!!). A new battery and off to Target to buy a new coat for Robyn to replace the one we forgot at the Red Robin. We finally made it home. We have lots of pictures thanks to a 2GB SD card in the Pentax DSLR. We have pictures from Candi and Katie and now need to round up the pictures from Robby to add to the Robyn's Visit website. Today we start to pack and get ready to send Robyn home tomorrow. Hopefully we will get a chance to make bread with Robyn this afternoon. Mike will be over this evening to spend the last night with Robyn. Tomorrow her plane leaves at 2:55pm. We will miss her.
