Kari and I went to Seattle, WA for Jeff & Teresa's wedding. We showed up a few days early, and got to visit Kari's Aunt Diane and Uncle Hal, Kari's cousins Mark and Michele, and Kari's cousins Laurie and Steve. Trevor and Belinda's family was at the wedding, so we got to play with Dillon and Connor, and hold Halle.
We got to see Seattle from the ground, from the top of the Space Needle, and from a ferry boat.
It rained only when it wasn't drizzling, and the fish flew at Pike's Place Market. The most telling T-Shirt we found said, "Seattle Rain Festival, Jan. 1 - Dec. 31".
The happy bride and groom.

(taken from a point somewhere beyond a fence at the end of the trail, where we had to scrape by a sign that said something like, "DANGER! STOP! FLOOD WARNING! HALT! DO NOT CLIMB OVER FENCE TO GET A BETTER PICTURE!" Little did the sign posters realize that our name forms the last four letters of challenge.)

Oh my! I saw Steve and Laurie at Milltown last year, but those kids! How they've grown!
Okay here's the deal we only live 3 hours from Seattle had we known all of you were in Seattle I would have happily driven to spend and afternoon with you and/or take a hike, or to visit Pike's Market with you.
P.S. Thanks for the new blog update, I check your blog often so a new post is fun!

Love the waterfall picture! Kari looks like she is freezing:)
Hope you are doing well...glad you had a little weekend escape in Seattle!
I think the sign
challenges people to climb the fence and take the photo of a lifetime ;)
Seattle is one of my favorite cities. Did you visit the new multi-million dollar Central Library downtown? It was designed by a Dutch architect and is very unique.
I'm with Gretchen on this one. It would have been great to see you!! We were actually in Seattle the same weekend! Bummer!!
