Elise is two!

On Saturday we celebrated Elise's 2nd birthday with an Elmo/Sesame Street themed party. Here are a few photos...

staying in Seattle

We survived (and actually really enjoyed) our 50 hours on an Amtrak train to Seattle. Having a sleeper car makes all the difference. Now we're staying with Grandma and Grandpa Button 40 miles outside the city, and Toby has completed 2 of his 6 residency interviews out here. Gramma Kathy arrived yesterday to help us watch Elise while we explore the city and attend interviews. It should be a great week ahead.
