1. Dan's scrapes are now almost completely healed! Yay! He's happy so we're happy. He loves Seattle VERY VERY much. It rained for him.
2. We put in an offer for a piece of land. (The neighborhood. So pretty)Didn't like the offer so we continue to beautify our home and hope the lot comes down in price.
I added the pillows to this room and made it look warmer. I love it!
3. Went to the Seattle Aquarium with the kids' uncle Mike. Reena loved it! The best aquarium we've gone to.
4. Went to the Pacific Science museum and saw lots of neat stuff. It is the best interactive museum I've ever been to. Very kid friendly. Easily could use up your whole day. We did it in 2 and 1/2 hours so we're going to get a pass and return. It has an IMAX theater so you really do get your money's worth. The kids enjoyed the water show, grossology lab, dinosaurs, learning about the Universe, and riding on the aircraft they had.
5. One night we picked up 2 large Papa John's pizzas (My favorite!) for dinner and then went straight to Bybee Blueberry farm by the beautiful mount Si and picked blueberries. We came home with so much blueberries. It was so much fun and very tasty! We also go on walks on the trails near our house and pick blackberries quite often nowadays. Blackberries are the weeds of Washington.
6. I went to a country concert and saw Sugarland and Kenney Chesney at QWEST FIELD. The concert was awesome and the best part of it all is that I got the ticket for free when the ticket normally runs at $60. I got it from my best friend who knows somebody that works at Qwest Field and got them for free.
7. We all went to the dentist (who is in our Stake) and Reena did so great! She got a full cleaning without much of a fuss because I was holding her the whole time. I got my wisdom tooth pulled out because it was starting to hurt a lot and sadly had to cancel a duet performance with my song writer. Dan went and saw our orthodontist, which is next door to the dentist office(who is in our ward) for braces. He's thinking about straightening his bottom teeth or maybe this is another attempt to feel younger. LOL. I don't know, take your pick.
8. We beach hopped again because the weather is warm. This place has lots of beach parks which usually has swings, slides, picnic tables, gazebos and shades for the adults and sand for the kids to make sand castles. Reena loves making sand castles with her Uncle Mike. I love to sit back in the shades with Debrie and enjoy the ocean view. It's very relaxing.
9. Reena and Debrie are my two favorite girls in the whole wide world. Reena loves her sister a lot...Almost too much. She wants her sister to crawl and to walk and doesn't understand yet that her sister is still a baby. She had to go to time out several times because she wants to wrestle with her sister. All day long the words that come out of my mouth are: "Be gentle, be soft, please be careful". Anyways you get the idea.
10. Debrie is yummy and delicious. I know, it sounds weird, but that is how everybody describes her. Somehow everybody wants to eat her. LOL. She is a cutie mostly because she gives us 8 hour nights now. Ok she is a cutie not just because of that. She can hold up her neck without bopping. Our little girl is growing up so fast.
Our lives are fast pace here and are rich and wonderful. We love having our families come and visit us. Our friend in the ward gave us a book that had over 180 hikes to do in this area with kids and we look forward to be able to do them. I found this website one day by doing a search for affordable attractions in Seattle. Exciting!
