A visit to Ruston

 - by Brittany

Friday morning, 10-23, we got up and ready to hit the road. My uncle and aunt moved to Washington a couple years ago so we went to see their house. They live a little over an hour from us so we ate lunch and headed out. Dad needed some new shirts, so we stopped by a mall on the way. Jameson fell asleep on the way, but woke up when we entered the mall. That didn’t last long. After our trip through the mall, it was another 20 minutes to my uncle’s house. We drove right up along the water, and got to see the big ships in the harbors. My Uncle said they carry wheat. They have a beautiful house, and as expected, an immaculate yard.

Their living room looks out over the pudget sound. It was gorgeous, and Jameson loved watching the boats (or one boat).

Jameson was a little “busy” while we were there. Since he had only had that one short nap, he was a little cranky. He used Uncle Bruce’s binoculars like a camera. He would hold them up and pretend to “click” like a camera would. He loved the piano there, but was not happy when I would not let him play it. We had a good visit with Uncle Bruce and were able to stay until Aunt Colett got home. We were able to visit for a little longer before heading home.

I had put some ribs in the crockpot before we left, so I couldn’t wait to get home to eat. Kevin made some Costa Rican rice for us to go with our ribs, and we enjoyed some dinner. We don’t have a table, and only two bar stools, so Dad opted to eat with Jameson at his table. Well his table is the same one Dad made for me when I was little, so I think he enjoyed it.

They enjoyed their food, we had some fun, and then rested the rest of the night.
