Sue, we'll be seeing you soon

What's the connection: Where to begin with Sue? We bonded immediately my first few months in Portland after discovering we both lived in Sevilla. At the same time, she bonded with Geno in a whole separate world. (It took us a few months to figure out we kept talking about the same Sue.) And now, look out Croatia - we're all coming in June!

Why the visit: Well, thanks Nike setting up their European headquarters here, we end up with many cool visitors that we pretend are just her to see us. Sue is one of those. While Geno was gone for work, it worked in my favor cause I got more bonding time.

Sister in Town!

What's the Connection: Pretty clear here, same mom, same dad, same small town memories of growing up in good 'ol Reedley.

Why the Visit: We love each other ... and she proved it by purchasing a ticket ... to Europe while the dollar hits the all time low. That's love. It was Chelsea's first trip to Amsterdam, and she tore across town on a bike like a local. She also cooked up a storm of fabulous food we couldn't resist. In addition to exploring Amsterdam, we also we zipped over to Paris for an amazing weekend walking (and eating) the entire city, click here for pics.
