We got to Seattle late Friday night, checked into our hotel, and then walked around the corner to the Cheesecake factory. Unfortunately, it was closed by the time we got there. It was late anyways though, so I told Charley that my cookie dough cheesecake could wait till the next day and we went back to our hotel and went to bed. The next day, we got up and connected with our friends, Ben and Sommer who had driven up from Portland (Multnoma Bible College) to spend the weekend with us.
Aren't they cute?
Saturday afternoon, we went to a boat show so that Charley could see in person the boat he's had his eye on for a while. He has been in communication with the seller, so he was excited to check out the boat for himself and chat with the builder for a while. He's got his fingers crossed that it'll be his within 2-4 years. We shall see. ;)
Saturday night, Ben & Sommer and Charley & I split up for a while. Charley and I went to see a Mariner's game at the Safeco field. They played and lost to the Oakland Athletics. It was SUCH a fun game. We had a blast!
There's me - 7 months pregnant. Judging from how much Eden bounced and jumped around from the minute we got there till the minute we left, my little girl takes after her Mama and LOVES pro-baseball. ;)
Charley was disturbingly excited about getting some crackerjacks while we were there. Goofball.
And here's the two of us together... :)
I'll do another post soon with pictures from our time at the Space Needle on Sunday, but right now I need to go help Charley paint some letters he cut out for Eden's room... :)

I love the pictures. You guys are so cute!! And what's wrong with getting excited about cracker jacks? NOTHING!
Ah!!! i didn't know you were going to Seattle!?! Did you know I lived there for three years and then went back a couple times a year to visit my parents during college until they moved to Texas in 2006!?!
Did you just go to check out that boat? Hope you had a great time--looks like the weather was pretty nice. :-) So much to do up there! :)

Buy me some peanuts and crackerjacks!I have no idea if those are the right words up there, but I think I'm singing it sorta right in my head. :) Hey, did you get him some peanuts too? Or do the peanuts that are already in the crackerjacks count?
