Far Away Family & The Other Bob

Sienna's weekend was filled with new experiences and meeting more of Mama's family. On Saturday, we traveled down to Bumbershoot at the Seattle Center for Sienna's first ever concert and to visit with Nana, Great Aunt Carol (Nana's sister) and Cousin Matt.

On the way down we listened to lots of Bob Dylan and The Traveling Wilbury's to prepare Sienna for her first concert. She knows Bob Marley, but this was her first time really listening to Bob Dylan. He is one of Mama's favorite Folk singers. Some of my favorite songs by Bob Dylan are Just Like A Woman, Quinn the Eskimo, I'll Be Your Baby Tonight and It Ain't Me, Babe. We were hoping he would sing some of them!

We arrived at the Seattle Center in the late afternoon, since Bob Dylan didn't go on stage until 9:00pm. It was a very late night for Sienna! The evening was filled with eating burritos and ice cream, dancing to good music, and having fun visiting with family.


On Sunday, Sienna and Mama drove down to Edmonds to spend time with Great Aunt Carol, Matt, Mike and Mike's wife, Laura before they drove back to Utah. Sienna loved playing with the Thomas trains at Nana's and her two playmates Mike and Matt.

We are looking forward to the Mulhall Family Reunion next summer, where Sienna will get to meet even more family from far away places.
