Back from Seattle

We're back from our mini-vacation to Seattle now. We had a great trip and had lots of fun seeing our friends Mary and Luis, Aimee and Cress, and we got to meet some new friends as well. We spent three days touring in the city and we made it out of the city to see part of Olympic National Park on one day. We had pretty good luck with the weather - it only rained a little bit one morning, and it was actually clear enough to see Mt. Ranier and the Olympics on the other days!


You can check out the rest of our pictures here. Here's a quick summary of what we did:

Day 1

• Dinner at Redhook Ale Brewery

Day 2

• Walk through the Seattle Center
• Public Market
• Seattle Aquarium
• Seattle Public Library
• Dinner at Marjorie with everyone

Day 3

Day 5

• Museum of Flight
• Vino shopping
• Afternoon cokes with Aimee and Katie
• Dinner at Canlis with Mary and Luis (with the best wine we've EVER had!) to celebrate Jeff's birthday

Anyway, it was lots of fun, and we had a great time doing it with a bunch of friends from college who we hadn't seen for a while!


This weekend we're going back up to Hays for our second garage sale. Woo hoo. :P But, I may get to see my friend, Kansas, because she'll be visiting her family for the weekend! Yay!
