Clarity's visit to Portland in February 2012

While Clarity's mom went to Barrow to work, her daddy, Steve, and she came to Portland for a few days to visit.



Clarity explaining to Gran why just one sucker a day isn't really a good rule.





Playing with her new friends, mini rabbits and bears. She loved making up stories about them.





Clarity showed Papa how to play games on Gran's Kindle. He was pretty impressed.



The artist and her masterpieces. She loves crafting and is quite the painter.



Snack time - Love those strawberries.



Steve working on his handiwork - felting. He's very creative and I love getting things from him. See Clarity in the background working on her own crafts.





Went walking at the lake and the ducks followed Clarity all the way around. We thought we should call her the Duck Whisperer. It was had to believe that she could stand that still.





There had been lots of rain so there were great puddles to walk through and jump into. Love those boots!





Cassie kitty doesn't mind Clarity's attentions but Tiger isn't so thrilled. Although Clarity tried to make him warm up to her, it wasn't totally successful. He did come out from under the bed by the third day.









Taking the "world travelers" to the airport. Clarity is an old hand now and knows just what she needs to do. She packed her backpack very carefully so she could get all her favorite things in there. She was glad to get home to mama.

We had a great visit, went to do things, played and played, saw a play - "Snoopy the Musical" and went shopping for clothes. Clarity does like her clothes.

She'll be spending the next year in Alaska so if you ever get up her way, stop in and say "hi".
