Well we finally arrived at grandma's and grandpa's a week ago last Saturday after a four day car trip. Mimi and the cats did just great. Mama survived four days of Lilo and Stitch. I now have Elvis coming out of my ears! Mimi just loves her grandma and grandpa and has them wrapped around her little finger.
Last Monday we signed the papers, the house is now ours! Later that night we all (us and a co-worker and family) had sushi at this little place in Greenlake, in Seattle. Mama is now starting to have withdrawl symptoms. I am really starting to miss my Japanese, Mexican and Thai food.
On a more somber note, mama's dad passed away (due to cancer)this past Tuesday. We are now down here in Long Beach staying with a our good friend Sandra. Tomorrow will be the viewing and next Monday the memorial service then on Tuesday, he will be interned at the Veteran's Memorial Cemetary in Riverside. On Tuesday night, we will be flying back up to Seattle.
Due to this unexpected event, we have had to hold off on moving our furniture. It was suppossed to arrive this weekend but is now changed till next weekend. Therefore we will be camping out in our new home. On the bright side, it will give our cats Ollie and Stanley a chance to get used to their new surroundings. As of now they are limited to staying in mama's SUV. At night we have been taking them out for a walk on a leash. You should see the strange looks we get from grandma's neighbors.
Will post the pictures at a later date when we get all set up at our new home.
