We spent the rest of Libby's birthday weekend up in Wisconsin visiting the newest members of the Sustar family: Yakkity, Kayak, Tricia, Basil, and Sage. Yep, Grandpa and Grandma are now Yakkers! Our visit was timed perfectly, as Basil was only a week old and Sage was born the morning we arrived. Needless to say, Siena loved the babies. Grandpa is taking his new vocation very seriously and spends time every day getting to know the yaks. Who knows -- maybe the next time we visit he'll be riding one around the land! The weather was perfect and the scenery gorgeous as usual... A great visit to the domes.
Grandpa and the yaks. Instead of posting lots of photos of the yaks, I'll upload a video so our readers can get the full yak experience. :)
The yak onlookers. We were told to keep our distance since the mothers may be extra protective of their calves. It was fun to visit with Mary, Liam, and Carl while we were there.
Say "YAK!"
Aunt Mary and Libby take a break from yak-watching to jam on the piano.
Grandpa and Siena sporting their yak shirts silkscreened over Christmas. Auntie Anne created the design -- so cute!
Libby tries out her walking shoes in front of the domes. She'll be running up and down these hills before we know it.
Smiling with Grandma
The girls admire our new "Sudoku" quilt, handmade by Grandma Yak. Isn't it beautiful? We are so blessed to have such a talented grandmother!
Siena learns about her roots by watching Grandma roll potica for the upcoming Slovenian conference.
