Chihuly Glass Exhibit

We've been by the Chihuly glass exhibit downtown a number of times, but have never made our way in. When it first went up last year, you could see some of the sculptures through the hedge, but that hedge is really growing this year and blocking my view! So we decided to go in with our friends Marie and Jen. It was so worth it! The sculptures were amazing. Charlotte had just gotten up from a nap and wanted to be held the whole time, so it was great. She would have been all over that glass at any other time... Now for glass sculpture overload (and these are only a few of the pieces. It really was a lot to take in)

Seattle

We had some friends come into town this week. It was fun to show them around Seattle. Charlotte begged to have her shoes off so that she could run through the water dripping down. It looked clean enough:) She had a blast.

Tour of Seattle

Brad's old roommate and his wife came to visit us for a couple days. Well, an evening and a day, to be exact. We had to squeeze as much as we could into that time and I think we did a pretty good job. We saw all of our favorite places and even got some great food. Charlotte also went on her first carousel ride and I think we'll wait a little while before we do it again:)

 

 

Tulips and La Conner

We spent Saturday walking around the rainy Northwest and looking at the gorgeous tulips. It was freezing and we might be fighting a little cold, but it was worth it. Our tummies were full of breakfast from the Maltby Cafe with some friends. We walked around La Conner, a little town not too far from the fields after looking at the tulips. I just love little old Washington towns and beautiful flowers.

These are our amazing cupcakes that we made on Friday night. We had a baking party and made strawberry lemon cupcakes. They may be almost gone...:)
