The Gamradts: Josh's Visit

It took 4 years to get my younger brother, Josh back out to the Pacific Northwest but we finally made it happen and the nicest thing about it was he was just in time for my birthday.

We celebrated my 34 fast and exciting years on this earth and what better way to do it then head out to the Red Hook brewery and do the tour. Josh is kind of a beer buff and likes to try all the different types were I'm like, "I'll have your lightest beer....if it's half water that is fine!" so cheers to me turning 34 and double cheers to my brother coming out and helping us celebrate.

The nicest thing is the tour only cost a buck and you get around 2 1/2 beers during the tour. Josh got around 4 because if it was dark or not to my liking I passed it right on over. I guess the key is if you want to get drunk on a beer tour take me a long with you because you will not only get yours but you'll get half of mine as well.

Kristi and Josh living it up!

Josh and I tearing it up!

While Josh was here we also did the Seattle thing. Rode the monorail, did Pike's Place Market, and ate fish and chips on the Water Front! I think the coolest thing about Josh's trip is that it didn't take Addy any time at all to warm up to him. She still ask, "is Josh coming over again?"

Addy loves buses, monorails, or anything that has to do with public transportation. I'm not exactly no where this loves comes from and seems a little crazy if you ask me but if that's her thing I support that and will probably get her a bus pass for her birthday! Here she is just enjoying the view out the window.

I have to say one of biggest things I have to work on is if the kids get a little out of control in a public place, DON'T PANIC JUST GO WITH THE FLOW! I get a little "on edge" if you know what I'm saying not exactly sure why but I do. Here the kids are getting totally in trouble, out of control, causing complete mayhem right outside of Steamers....ok...maybe not exactly out of control or maybe not even close to mayhem but if there faces don't say trouble I don't know what else does.

Josh spending some time with the kids!

I'm so thankful Josh was able to come and spend some time with us and the kids. I hope we can do it again real soon and maybe next time Laura, Oliver, and the new addition can come as well! (No I didn't forget there babies name! They are due in July) Thanks for coming BRO!
