Trip to Seattle....

Last weekend I flew to Seattle to spend the weekend with Bruce. It was the first time we had ever been on a real vacation without kids! We had a great time! I got in on Thursday evening and Bruce was excited to show me around. We walked all over his "neighborhood", then went out to sushi. On Friday we spent the day shopping(poor Bruce!) and going down to Pikes Place Market. That evening Bruce surprised me with a wonderful dinner at Palisades. It was fantastic! We were even picked up in a limo! The food was excellent....I had salmon and Bruce had ahi tuna. It was the best seafood I have ever eaten! The tuna literally melted in my mouth! There was a saltwater stream running through the restaurant complete with starfish and sea anemones. I had to take a picture for the kids....The next day we drove around looking at potential areas to move. We found some nice houses, but the prices were outrageous! Not to mention the complete lack of yard space. I was a little frustrated. I hope we can find something nice with at least a little bit of a yard! We had a fun time just driving around and enjoying the scenery. On Sunday, we had our Realtor take us around to walk through some houses. We didn't find anything spectacular, but I think we settled on some potential areas. Later, Bruce drove me to the airport. I was so sad to leave him, but I was anxious to get home to the kids. When I landed in Salt Lake, the kids were happy to see me, but sad to leave the excellent care of Grandma and Jeni!!!

Me by the sea... Lucky I looked before I sat down in this wet chair! The starfish at the Palisades...
