The First Six Months

I can't believe that we've been here half a year! It seemed like an eternity of waiting for Tom to join us (the first two months) but now we just cruise along. Today, March 1, reminded me that winter is drawing to a close, and I really need to post some pictures of the Brown family's first winter in Washington.

I should point out that, despite how far north we are now, the weather is fairly mild through the winter months. We haven't seen a single snow flake. We have seen our fair share of rain, but that's the way of things in the Pacific Northwest.

Here are just a few snapshots of our adventures here. Tom and the boys have enjoyed some great hiking, we've hopped several ferries over to Seattle, and we had the biggest Christmas tree ever, thanks to an abundant supply of huge trees out here, and house with a two story foyer.
