March started our month and half for visitors non-stop and we love it! Our first visitors were our awesome friends from Texas! It has been about 2 years since we have seen them and we loved every single minute of it....except for the part that it went by way too fast!!
The day they arrived we had gorgeous weather so after Grace got out of school we headed to the park!
The next day we headed into Seattle to show them as much as we could in a day and as much as you can see with 5 kids and one very pregnant guide! Hehe :)
The girls were able to have their own table at lunch and thought they were pretty cool.
After lunch we hopped on the monorail and headed down to the needle and surrounding areas.
After that we went to the market to see some fish being thrown around and to make a stop at the original Starbucks!
By the time we left the market it was almost 5:00 so we headed back home and stopped by a restaurant to eat. It was probably the greatest idea we had all day! They put us in a private room to ourselves where the kids could get up and down as much as they wanted, talk in normal voices (aka loud), and there was a TV which meant us adults could actually talk to each other during the meal and we didn't have to cook or clean up!! It was perfect! :)
The next couple days were rather low key, with us hanging out at home and going to a play center for the kids.
Oh and we had a mommy/daughter date and went to the movie Cinderella!!
The last day they were here the sun came back out so we took them to see Snoqualmie Falls. It was beautiful that morning!
And of course like all good things their time had to come to an end and since Mark was at work we crammed everyone into the Pilot. Lucky for Carl he got the best seat in the whole car! ;) Hehe
Our sad good-byes and the only picture Jen and I took together the entire weekend!
We loved having them come to visit and so look forward to our next time together where ever that may be. I love how after 2 years we can just pick up our friendships with them like there was no time apart! I'm sure it helps with all the technology but I also think a large part has to do with our friendship in general.Thanks for coming Auburgs!! We love you and miss all of you so much! :)
