Fun Times with Family

Recently my sister-in-law, Laura, and my nephew, Cedric, came to Pasadena for a visit. We had a great time enjoying the Southern California sunshine, eating at Pinkberry, touring the library and Peter's campus, eating scones, strawberries, and cream at the Chado Tea Room, shopping in Old Town, and stuffing ourselves with all the great food Laura cooked for us while she was here. (Yes, that's right, we're the kind of hosts that make you work for your board - so if you're planning a visit, come prepared with a few tasty recipes.) I also got a crash course in baby care which I desperately needed and learned that our apartment complex was not designed to be stroller-friendly. We were very sad to see them go, and by "we" I mean Peter and I. Sheba and Pudge, while appreciative of all the crumbs and bits of food that might be dropped by Cedric at mealtimes, have recently discovered that the changing pad makes an especially cozy bed, and I think they are happy to not have to share it again for awhile.

I'm still waiting for the pictures that are on Peter's camera, but in the meantime, I'm going to try posting a few below. Enjoy!
