Lil and Juncle come to town

Lil was planning to stop by on her drive from north central Washington, where she'd been working with Outward Bound for six weeks, back to Chico, and Justin decided at the last minute to take the overnight Greyhound and meet her in Portland so they could both visit friends and meet Auggie, then drive home together.

It was so great to see Justin (who will now be known as Juncle) with Augustine. A sweet uncle, indeed. Though he was a little disappointed that Auggie is not old enough to throw in the air. Hmmm...

Augustine is an equal-opportunity spitter-upper.

Augustine with Aunt Lilita, who will officially be my sister-in-law two months from today, but who has been family for a long time.









The next time we see these two, they will be saying I do in the beautiful redwoods of Humboldt County. And Augustine will be three months old! It was fun to RSVP to their wedding -- for three!
