our family vacay - day 2, part 2 - vancouver, WA

we stayed two nights in vancouver WA with our dear friends, the cake's. we were so excited to meet their newest daughter, sarsina, who we've been waiting for her adoption to go thru since december! sarsina and her mom rachelle made us an amazing ethiopian dinner...talk about delish!! sunday afternoon, after family portraits, we were going to have an offical ethiopian coffee ceremony...CAN.NOT.WAIT!!!!!

oh ya, jonathan and patterson were also the mechanics of the alien saucers the boys kept bashing into hard things. they sure don't make toys like they used to!

and the kids did some facepainting and did a show for us.. so cute.. :)
