One of my Favorite things.......

I didn't realize till I got home and went through all the pictures 

that I took was how much I miss looking at homes.....

older homes that is.

This was our first home that Phil and I bought years ago.

It brought back so many memories!

These were a few of my favorites located on

 Queen Anne Hill in Seattle.

 I loved the treed streets, the side walks, the detached garages.....

 All of which we do not have in Alaska.

 The view....

 My favorite little park on the hill.

so sweet......

I am having a hard time getting back in the swing since

we got back home.......things are settling down now

but boy, vacation was more fun!

Hope your week is going well!

The best time ever.......

 These flowers for $5-7 a bunch killed me....

 Ahhhhhhhh Starbucks.........look at that door!

these glass sculptures were amazing.

 Science center....

 it was so fun watching our kids in the city.....because its so different

from our life at home......they loved it!

 Science center....

 Waterfront

This is on there bucket list for next time......

I have more to share, 

I can't wait to see what you all have been up to!

Seattle bound....

 I'm so excited.....Anthropologie, Ikea.....h&m....and all the shops

that I don't even know about.....School shopping!

 Were all packed......even my two little men....

I'm going to miss my boys terribly! 

and ready to make family memories.....

We will also be heading to Long Beach

 for a family reunion.

I'm so sorry I have not been around at all this week 

when I have hours in the airport

I will try and catch up with you all....

see you when I get back!

Happy 50th.......

 The Space Needle is celebrating its

50th anniversary.....

 You can get the history and fun facts here

 When Phil and I were dating he took me to dinner here

  The next morning I came down with chicken pox....

 One week from today,

 I can't wait to share this fun land mark with our kids....

Have any of you been to the Space Needle?

A thrifted re-do.....

 I bought this brass tray at the thrift store the other day.....

 and gave it a quick coat of paint.....

 I love how much room I have now

 with out that big cabinet in the way.....

 My beach glass from Halibut cove.....

I guess my before shot

 should have been at the top......

oh well

Last night we did the Skyline hike, well half of it......

I can't wait to share the view with you.
