Katarina's First Easter, April 16, 2006

The Sawczuks at Sunday Service.

The prettiest baby in the Easter Parade! (at least we think so!) Thanks for the outfit Grandma and Grandpa.

April 12, 2006 The Tulip Festival

Emily, Elizabeth and Katarina went to see the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival. There were fields upon fields of tulips. We couldn't resist lots of pictures of our favorite little girl.
With Tia Emily.
Enjoying the flowers with mommy.
Right before Katarina plucked a big beautful flower.

Happy to be with Em.

Time with Tia Emily, April 6 to 13

Katarina loved her visit with Tia Emily. She even learned to say "Tia" in honor of the occasion!

Like mother (and tia), like daughter!

March 20, 2006 Deception Point

Daddy and Katarina share some love.




The Sawczuks enjoy a beautiful day at Deception Point on Whidbey island. This was our family outing to see Whidbey Island. The view was beautiful but heights made Liz a little dizzy. Katarina's preferred mode of transportation was daddy's backpack.

Katarina's Birthday

We celebrated Katarina's first birthday on March 31, 2006 at the Poetzl home. The Platers, Sawczuks, and Poetzls were present.
