summertime.. FINALLY!

We have FINALLY hit summertime! Day after day of never ending sun. We have been so busy soaking up these long days. Here are some of our adventures!

Colter and I took a mini road trip one morning to Snoqualmie Falls and the Train Museum in Snoqualmie. This was not a sunny day.. in fact we couldn't see the falls at first, but eventually some of the mist cleared away and we took in the awesome view.







Several trips to the zoo.. we LOVE this place! 



A visit to the animal farm and splash pad in Everett. Colter could not get enough of the animals!




Our first visit to the greenlake wading pool, one of our favorite places in Seattle!



We took a day trip to Issaquah and checked out a fish hatchery, a new park, and ate lunch at a kid friendly brewery. 

                                          

Other things not pictured are several trips down to the beach, a visit to a new splash park that was AMAZING, and the greenlake milk carton derby. 

We have also had a few recent fun kidless activities. 

On Friday my sister hosted a waffle party. Ben and I got addicted to Belgian liege waffles after trying out a local place called melts. We figured out a great recipe and have been having fun making them at home. We made up some dough, and everyone brought toppings. It was amazing!


On Saturday we went out with a big group of our friends for an amazing night on the town. We first ate dinner at the amazing Barrio, and then headed to Centruy Ballroom for some salsa! Everyone had a blast except my feet who were very mad at me for wearing heels.
