A Week with Oma and Opa











Dale's parents, "Oma & Opa" came to visit us for a week. They had a great time playing with Emma and she really enjoyed being with them. Oma took Emma and I shopping .... and we loaded up on some new toys and books. Opa did alot of exploring by bike. We all were able to enjoy lunches and dinners together , some swimming at Whiskeytown Lake and some hiking at Lassen Volcanic Park. Dale and his Dad also tried to hike to the top of Lassen Peak but due to an earlier rock slide only 1/2 the trail was open, so they braved a different trail to the top of Brokeoff Mountain .... more about this in a later posting. The night before they had to leave, we had an early birthday celebration for Emma with Angel Food cake, peaches, ice cream and some gifts. She had a little bite of cake but really enjoyed the cut peaches and ice cream much better.
An added bonus for the Kuklas, Emma started taking some steps during their visit.
