Weekend Trip to Seattle

Over the Memorial Day weekend we took a quick trip to visit friends Mike and Marissa (and their cute daughter, Hazel) who live in Seattle. The weather didn't cooperate (though rainy in Seattle seemed appropriate!), but we still had a great time. A few highlights from the trip:

On Saturday we went to the famous Pikes Place Market and took in the displays of fresh seafood, flowers, and pretty much anything else you can think of! We saw the original Starbucks and had lunch downtown before heading back to Everett, WA where Mike and Marissa live.

Saturday night they had gotten a babysitter so we enjoyed a night out... dinner on the water at Ivan's, then a stop at McCabe's. Seriously. The bar had line dancing lessons going on, but we opted for a boys vs. girls game of darts. (Which the girls won!) The final stop of the night was a dueling piano bar, where we sang along very loudly.

Sunday we took the Ferry over to Whidbey Island and the town of Langley. Even in the not-so-wonderful weather we enjoyed exploring the adorable little town.
