Seattle in February

My sisters Camille and Ashley and their families both live about 30-40 minutes from Seattle. Sister Heather and I decided to take a trip to see everyone while the airline rates were so good (thanks Mom!). Camille and Ashley were so great to drive us all around and give us a good taste for the rainy city. It did rain a lot, but it just added to the whole Seattle-feel of everything. We went to the zoo, ate good food, walked around harbors, shopped the boutiques at Port Townsend, rode the ferry to Seattle where we ate fish and shopped at Pikes Market, got a hot drink at the very first Starbucks, shopped some more, talked, and just plain ole hung out. So much fun! Thanks everyone for a great time!


Traditional caramel corn on Sunday night!




Gig Harbor - beautiful!


Like mother like daughter. We both like to throw back some tasty root beer from a bottle every now and then.

Giving big hugs!


Silly faces!

Cousins Holland, McKay, Ruby, and Hattie

Abby with Aunt Heather and baby Hattie. Abby couldn't get enough of Hattie! Neither could any of us. She's so dang cute!
By the way Camille, Holland has taught Abby a new sense of style. Since returning home, Abby notices things that are cute and pretty. We were in Target today and she told me that a certain shirt would look nice on her. And yesterday she looked at a shirt I was hanging up and told me it was cute.

How fun...I'm so glad you guys got to go! Since Heather will probably post a comment, I'll go ahead and tell her right here that Hattie is a babe! She is so big now! Love those blue eyes. I love Abby's cheesy grins...she is so cute! I can't wait until she and Max get married :)

P.s. Happy B-day! I'm calling you right now!

Wahoo, so glad you finally posted something. I look at these pics and miss our time there, wish we could've stayed longer and chatted more, but we'll just have to make up for it here in May. Thanks for posting.
