Our friend Sam, who has been deployed on a Naval ship since last fall, came home last week. So he and his wife Harmony and their daughter Ceci came to meet us at Happy Hollow from their new home in Monterey. We always have fun with the Trassares.
Ceci was really taken with the challenge of walking across the stepping stones. She's competitive, and wouldn't stop trying to walk across until she could do it all by herself.
She started out with some help from Uncle Logan:
Next, it was her daddy's turn to help: 
Finally she did it all by herself. She did end up getting her feet wet (a couple of times), but she was proud of her accomplishment: 
The old Crooked House is still there, and it looks like it has a new coat of paint. But the house wasn't open today- maybe they're still restoring the inside. There's a HUGE twisting slide inside the house, and Harmony and Logan and I all remember going down the slide when we were little: 
After we'd walked around Happy Hollow for a few hours, we were ready for some dinner at the Old Spaghetti Factory. Ceci, who is a true girly girl and loves princesses, felt very special sitting in the fancy chair in the waiting area: 
Tomorrow will be another exciting day. We're going to work on getting the garden watering system installed in the morning, then I have to go to work for the afternoon, and in the evening we're finally getting our iphones and having dinner with my parents. Another busy weekend...
