While In Washington Reagan kept me busy, thats when I wasnt being the crazy aunt chasing Aubrey around...
We made it a point to stop by Starbucks at least once per day for a delicious "Iced Vanilla Chai Tea"... mmm mm good...
My first day there was eventful... First, it was Reagans Birthday: "Happy Birthday"... we headed home for some "relax time" it had been a long day for me already. After Aubrey's nap, we headed into town so Aubrey & Aaron could go to their swimming lesson, well the lesson is for Aubrey, but Daddy gets to thelp :) after the lesson we went out to dinner, it was very good... then Aaron, Aubrey & I headed back to the house while Reagan headed off to her Softball game... I didnt make it too long at the house, passed out by 1030PST.
The next day, I convinced Reagan that a relaxing day sounded great, so we went and did some shopping, and just hung out... was a perfect day for me... lol
Wednesday we made it to Pike Place Market and to the space needle...
At the market we walked all around and checked out the sites. Reagan showed me the gum wall . EWWWW and after lunch we took Aubrey on the Carosel... she didnt like getting off.
The space needle was amazing, I had never been, but we hit it on a perfect day, which suprised us as we couldnt see the top of the needle when we went to Pike Place Market. Aubrey loved walking around, and I was more than willing to chase her ... lol While at the space needle, we walked through the fun center, and Aubrey played with the cars. Then we went and checked out the fountain, Aubrey really wanted to check it out, so I took her down in the fountain, and then we walked at a baby's pace back up the fountain. I was so worried she was going to fall, and she kept watching her feet... lol. Once at the top, she got scared when she rushed up on a puppy (a Multeese) and it barked at her...
On Thursday, we went to Snoquami falls, another first for me, before we trecked down the boardwalk, I took some time to blow some bubbles for Aubrey and pose for a photo-op. We didnt hike down to the water, thought it might get hard with Aubrey, maybe next time. but, we were able to get a nice group shot...
Thursday evening, we headed into town and grabbed Aaron and took off for Discovery Park. it was not what the internet made it sound, but was still fun to walk around, and I got some AWSOME mountain shots...
Friday, Aaron decided to play hookie, and we headed off to the zoo... it was a lot of fun, the animals were all out, and we even got to see the baby gorilla, though it didnt come out so well in my pictures, though if you look closely, you can see Aaron in the picture.. .lol...
Saturday morning, Aubrey made me sad, cause she didnt seem to want me to go... I am very glad she liked me, though, it made me sad to go... I miss you guys, I cant wait to come out and see you again...
