Stacey comes to my recorder class

Last night Natalie's Flat Stacey came with me to my recorder class. She has also spent time listening to me practice. In this picture you see the people who play bass recorder. I play tenor and alto.

University of California, Berkeley





Stacey and Grandma went to see the University of California, Berkeley. This is where Aunt Katie studied structural engineering and architecture. Maybe someday someone from Natalie's class will come here for college.
















Grandpa came back from his trip to China and took Stacey to his workshop. She helped him make some toys for cousin Oliver. She was very careful of the power saw.

Mount Tamalpais


While we were in Sausalito we went to see the houseboats that are on the Bay. The mountain behind Stacey is Mount Tamalpais. This is the mountain that is near where GiGi lived.

Natalie's Flat Stacey goes to Sausalito

Cousin Riley came to visit and we went to Sausalito, a little town on San Francisco Bay across from San Francisco. Here is Riley holding Flat Stacey with San Francisco in the background.

Our Redwood

There is a big redwood tree in our garden. Redwoods are the state tree of California. I think they are the biggest trees in the world. You can see that Stacey and Grandpa together cannot get their arms around the redwood tree in our garden. The redwoods in the forest are way bigger than the one in our garden.

More fun at Berkeley Adventure Playground

Flat Stacey and Natalie's Grandma climb the cargo net at Berkeley's Adventure Playground

Berkeley's Adventure Playground

We went to Berkeley's Adventure Playground where kids build the play equipment.

I made overalls for Flat Stacey so she wouldn't spoil the nice dress Natalie made for her.

She got a bucket of paint and a brush and helped paint a club house.

She was too little to ride the Zip line like Natalie did when she visited.

Natalie's Flat Stacey arrives


Natalie's Flat Stacey arrived in Berkeley, California. She was tired so I made her a nightie and put her to bed in the doll bed my parents gave me when I was six.
