We went to the beach!

March 12, 2013

This past weekend we drove to the beach! We met our friends from Eugene and they brought their adorable dog along. Woo! I’m pretty sure the rest of the week will be pictures from the weekend. I hope you don’t mind.

Our first full day there we hit the beach in the morning and watched as Sawyer (the dog) played on the beach for the first time and took lots of pictures of her. We watched the waves coming in and out, we watched people horseback riding down the beach, we tried to ride our (borrowed) bikes down the beach.

I also made sure to warn everyone not to turn their backs to the sea. I followed my warning until Walker instructed me to turn my back to it to get a picture of our feet in the surf. Guess who got their boots full of water? Right, me. I was soaked and Walker got just a little splash. So it goes. We all had a good laugh and made our way back to home base. I changed and continued to enjoy the sunny day we had been blessed with.

The rest of our friend visit

February 18, 2013

Last week I shared a little about our visit from friends. Today I’m wrapping it up. We finished up our trip by doing a bit of wine tasting, showing them one of our favorite farmer’s market (had brunch), and took them to the beach at Discovery park.

Lunch on the 75th floor

February 13, 2013

On Friday of our visit from out of town guests we got to have lunch at the Columbia Tower in downtown Seattle. We were on the 75th floor and it seemed quite luxurious. It was a clear enough day to see quite a bit of the city but no mountains (at least it wasn’t raining so I’m not complaining).

After lunch I braved getting close to the windows and looking down (I’m afraid of heights so my legs get a little weak). I attempted a look out the telescope but I was a little too short-so it goes.
