life for the past month

we've been busy. good busy. I woke up yesterday and it felt funny to not have to sneak around the house in the morning trying to not wake the guests. It felt odd to not have to start the dishwasher because all the dishes were used up in a day. A gallon of milk has started to last more than 2 days. Suddenly we can't get through a costco size package of blueberries as quickly.

After my mom left town, Ben's parents came into town the next week and then my dad, brother & his girlfriend, Kelsey came into town the following week. Seattle provides an endless possibility of things to do, so we didn't have a hard time coming up with lots of fun events!

A morning down at Pike Place for my dad to get some seafood for his feast later on.




lunch at MOD (Made on Demand, although it could be for Mean Old Dad). Don't worry about Mark's eye patch, he got into a brawl outside the restaurant.


Disc golf in Mountlake Terrace - you should have seen the put that I made.. I shocked myself!



A delicious seafood feast



A picnic at a local state park on I-90

Not pictured are Ben and his dad staining our deck back to its original color, our neighbors rapping at 2 am waking my mom up, walking greenlake to watch the milk carton derby, and taking a stroll through the Edmonds farmer's market. Did I mention I love Seattle?

The nights of 48 hours or dancing with the stars.
A little detective work with the neighbors....
