We went up to Seattle this week to celebrate the 4th. We stayed with Denny and Fran and I had a great time getting to know them. They are just great! The first day we where there we spent the day relaxing, and the boys went shooting. It was fun to hang out with Wayne and his family!
The second day we went on a fairy ride from Edmonds:
We saw a real live jelly fish!
Once we got off the fairy we realized we where trapped, there was a parade that was just starting that blocked off all the traffic, so the fairies stopped coming for a few hours. We didn't mind, the parade was hilarious! (yes that is a love boat float)
After the parade ended, the fairies started again and we headed over to Wayne's for a BBQ.
In marysvile where wayne lives there are no restrictions on fireworks, and there is a reservation one mile away. It was insane there! None of us had ever seen anything like it in our lives, it was like a city show in every direction for three hours!
The next day Wayne and family joined us for a crazy day at Pikes market:
On the peir and all over there where a bunch of crazy statues, we had fun
When we where on the waiting list for dinner, we found a faris wheel, We grabbed the kids and hopped on!
We ate a delicious place on the docks called the crab pot. It was my very first time eating real seafood, first time eating crab too! It was SOOOOOO yummy! (and super fun to eat!)
We had a great time, we both agree it was the best fourth of July weekend ever!
On the way home we stopped at a famous chocolate making shop in Issaquah and got delicious icecream. Such a great trip!!
