Crane Family of three

Allison's Yosemite Photos

Happy belated birthday, Grandma! I hope you're doing well. (And I hope your cataract surgery went smoothly.)

Here are some photos from my trip to Yosemite in May, with some friends from my linguistics department:

East Coast Visit - Allison's photos

Hi Grandma and Poppy,

It was so nice to see you last week! And I was so happy that you were both feeling better after being sick the week before that. I wish we could have had an even longer visit! (And more time to improve my understanding of bidding while playing Bridge...)

Anyway, here are some photos from my week on the east coast, first from D.C. with Anna and Henry, then with our friends Rachel, David, and Anna in Philadelphia, and then with Kelly in New York:


Hope to talk to you both again soon...

I love you!
Love, Allison

Allison and Paula

Hi Grandma & Poppy,
Here is the photo that I showed you the other day of me and Paula, taken on the roof of a hotel in Santa Barbara.

Summer photos

Mom & George visited me two weekends ago. We met at the Chicago Botanic Garden, it was my first time there. I can't wait to go back again this summer.



This past weekend, Natan and I were in Madison for a friends wedding. The wedding took place way out in the country in Cambridge, WI. It was great to see a bunch of old friends there.
