A belated welcome to Julie, Scarlett and Thor!

Our good friends Julie and Thor and their little girl Scarlett moved into our complex a couple of weeks ago. These pictures were taken on Scarlett's first visit to the park - while her poor parents were moving everything in, we were having fun sifting sand and chasing birds and generally causing a ruckus.


Scarlett and the boys got on so well that by the time her Mom and Dad came to get her, she was wearing a pair of Jack's PJ's and was playing with cars. Give us your little girl for a couple of hours and we'll turn her into an honorary boy. Alright, I know, girls play with cars too, but still, she did look much more like a boy than usual.

Poor Ms. Scarlett had to go in for an operation on her ear shortly after these pictures were taken. Her surgery went just fine (whew!) but her fever kept spiking for days after that which resulted in many late night visits the emergency room. She is doing just fine now, thank you very much, and would be very happy to show you around her new home any time you please.


In the meantime, a big welcome to Scarlett and her family. We are so happy to have them here! Julie and Scarlett have walked Finn to school three times already, which is a big treat for him, and we've had several impromptu visits back and forth at one another's houses. We're looking forward to many more gatherings over the summer and Scarlett and Julie and Thor have invited us to go whale watching soon - woo-hoo!
