Pretty City (Our Weekend Trip!)

Here are a few photos from our little trip this last weekend! It was an early Mother's Day and Birthday (Paige's!) celebration. My husband couldn't come because, you know, the preacher has to be home on the weekends :O) but Paige and I had a great time with a couple of old friends of mine who drove us around all weekend and thoroughly spoiled Paige. We went to Point Defiance zoo, which I didn't get any good photos of, unfortunately and the second day we hung out at the PLU campus while my friend was in class. It was such a cute little retro campus! I couldn't help snapping some photos of Paige there. 

 Then we drove up to Tukwilla and took the light rail to Seattle, which Paige was absolutely giddy about. I, frankly wasn't much less excited, it was fun! :O)

Every time I walk out into the streets of Seattle I'm amazed all over again at how beautiful it is. I love this city. So alive and artistic! And since I'm kind of small-townish Seattle kind of makes me feel like I'm in New York.

 My favorite thing about Seattle (besides the tall buildings...and the water...oh and the h&m) is all the people! I love that everywhere you look there are people, people, people. It just makes my heart sing!! I want to smile at and wave to and hug everyone I see.

There is also the four story Nordstrom. Nothing wrong with that.

 Some tourists watching the guys throw the fish. :o) (is that Hiro??)

 And then my friend took us on the ferris wheel. I made the mistake of telling Paige about it ahead of time so it was all I heard about for days. It was so gorgeous! It definitely didn't disappoint.

I heart Seattle. 'Case you couldn't tell.

Today we're celebrating Paige's birthday as a family which means treats at the health food store, playing at the park, picking out two new Elephant and Piggie books and watching an exorbitant amount of Arthur cartoons.
I'm also sitting down to schedule the 50 photo shoots I have to do this month for the ol' book. This is the fun part, guys. :O)

Have a great mid-week!!

Love,

Disney

P.S. Next time I totally want to have a coffee shop meet-up with all my readers from the western WA area! Wouldn't that be so fun??
