Visit to Seattle

It was definitely a happy and welcome reunion for us back in Seattle. Emily was kind enough to open her awesome apartment for us to meet up with everyone. Caden got to meet our friends from Seattle, and we finally go to see Emily's home.

Brent and Brian from the Hyatt came over, as you can see by the smiles, they were happy to be back together! Jessica & Julie took turns holding Caden. He did really well for the day, no tantrums and no major spit-up episodes.
Emily & Anne also took turns holding Caden. Emily is getting ready for her wedding which is Labor Day weekend, I am hoping that we will be there. It all depends on the house sale. I didn't get any pictures of Greg or Derek - Anne & Emily's other halfs, but they were there too, having tons of fun.
Sean even took a turn with Caden.
We had a crab and salmon feast. We brought the crab, and Roger (Emily's dad) caught a salmon in Alaska that he sent over. Brian made lamb burgers, using his recipe from when the Saudi prince was in town for 8 months. Pretty great meal for all of us.


The picture below is just an idea for what we were working with. The Xterra is filled to the gills. Brian had to sit on the dog bed in order to fit in the car. I had a box of Chips on my lap...What a day. We didn't get any pictures of it, but we stopped by my cousin's Pat & Debbi and had some breakfast in Bellingham. We had some blueberry coffee with them which was awesome and their house is amazing.

Can't wait till we are in Washington and we can have more fun roadtrips and weekends with friends.

Also - in case you didn't know, Justin is now in Spokane, and I hope to be there soon. Caden is in Phoenix with me, but will go to Spokane after our Rhode Island trip in August.
