Busy Busy

We have been super busy lately.

Jake had to take a last minute business trip to Seattle. Since I had never been, we got to tag along. We went up Wednesday afternoon. We spent Thursday sight seeing downtown and at Pikes Market. I wish I lived near there just for the fresh flowers! Friday we did a little more sight seeing. One of the highlights was REI. It was HUGE and we definitely did some damage :) It had an indoor climbing wall, playground, restaurant, riding trails outside and lots of awesome stuff to buy. Friday evening we were invited to the Christening of an Alaskan crabbing boat and catered dinner while cruising Puget Sound before it heads to Dutch Harbor. What an awesome experience! The boat was beautiful. It was a perfect evening and the Puget sound was gorgeous. We also got to experience going through the locks. We think it is pretty neat that Callie Beth's first boat ride was on an Alaskan Crab boat.

We drove home Friday night after the Christening and got home around 4am. The Toledo summer festival was this weekend, which is a pretty big deal here. Callie Beth and I did a 5K walk Saturday morning and then went to the parade. Jake had to work at the festival for a few hours. We went to the festival that evening to get some food. Needless to say, we went home and crashed.

Sunday, Jake's Aunt Gale and Uncle Jeff had a housewarming party up near Portland. We rode up with Jake's parents. Their house is beautiful! It was really great to see the Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, and cousins. There was a professional photographer at the housewarming party. I will post more pics when we get those!

I must say with how much we have been traveling and been in the car, Callie Beth is a trooper! She does amazing in the car and has done pretty well sticking to some sort of a schedule. I'm sure that will all change after shots.

Here is the boat we were on.

Oh..Callie Beth has found her feet and tries super hard to get them in her mouth. She is almost there!
