Just some randomness

When I was loading pics last time I didn't get all of our Seattle pics so here are some more and then some random pics of our daily lives.
On our way home from Seattle we passed the Oscar Meyer Weiner moblie. It was way too big to get a pic as we were passing so here is a pic in the side mirror.

Here is the HUGE bridge that we had to cross. I hate driving across bridges!

Here is a pic of Peace Arch. Keegan is the tiny brown dot running toward it.


Snoqualmie falls again, this time you can kind of see the amount of water spraying up.

The 2nd biggest leaf I have ever seen. That is my foot next to the leaf, and most of you know I have huge feet so that makes the leaf pretty darn big. It is the 2nd biggest leaf because when I found the biggest leaf ever it was too dark to take a picture. oh well.

Here are just some pics of our daily lives.
This one is at Costco. Keegan really wanted this GIGANTIC stuffed animal. We had to tell him that if we brought it home it would scare Koda, he didn't want to do that.


The boys reading in the Giraffe tent. Josh will probably be mad that I posted this but, too bad.



Keegan at his very first movie. Well the very first movie that we brought him to that we intended him to watch and not sleep through. He sat pretty well through the whole thing. He calls Madagascar the Zebra movie.

Seattle

This past weekend we went to Seattle. What a beautiful place. I have decided, who needs to live in Salt Lake when you could live somewhere like Seattle. I have also told Josh that his next assignment needs to be over there somewhere. AMAZING!!!
On our way over we stopped at Snoqualmie Falls. It was somewhere Josh had always wanted to see but never managed to get over there. We didn't know at first but the river was flooding. Normally the falls aren't so big. There was so much mist in the air it was raining without really raining. We saw the falls from the top and then decided to hike to the bottom. It's only 1/2 mile down, no big deal right? Once we were part way down, with a 2 year old mind you, Josh reminded me that we have to hike up everything we are walking down. But I was determined. The walk down was gorgeous, and the walk up, well needless to say it too, much longer coming up than it did going down. Oh well, we made it!!

The next day we went to Peace Arch Park, there is a big arch that once you go under it you are technically in Canada. Keegan ran straight through the arch and fell down in the mud. So he had Canadian mud on him the rest of the day.


On the way back we went a different route and went over Deception Pass. So pretty. You go over a HUGE bridge that connects 2 different islands.


The boys looking out over Decption Pass. It was really windy but worth getting out of the car.



Keegan and Josh walking through Pike's Place Market. Keegan had to take his RSL (Real Salt Lake) backpack everywhere. And since we forgot the stroller he walked a lot this weekend. And if any of you know my kid. He would much rather be carried.


What a great weekend, before we had even left Seattle we were already talking about our next trip over there. Can't wait.
