Just Me!!

                                 When I write posts I seriously don't include every picture I take. These are just a small portion of them. We finished the second day with the Slaughters in Vancouver. My pedometer closed nearly 14000 steps that day. We walked all over Stanley Park and visited the Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge. The views from the bridge were beautiful but we had a ton of fun crossing the river to Geocache (thank goodness Chris helped me across-I was worried that my phone would get wet) and hiking up to where they cliff jump off the rocks into the water below. I think by the end of the weekend we had found 18-19 caches.  Chris and Kourtney are gone now. This past Thursday-Friday we had our last adventures together. We took the kids Geocahing in DuPont and did the Paul Bunyon cache series and went to the Bite of Seattle. At The Bite we ate: Alligator on a stick Potato and Cheese piero...

    The Seattle Public Library                           What an awesome weekend! We had so much fun hanging out with the Slaughters. We finally caught the Geocaching bug, and because we are premium members now we can Geocache with anyone. Mark logged all our geocaches that we have done in the past with the Slaughters so we have quite a few under our belt. We met them downtown on Saturday, and played all day. We went to Pike Street, Gum Wall, Seattle Center, Kerry Park, and then to Salty's on Alki Point. We stayed at the W Hotel in Seattle where they stayed. Our room was awesome, and it was upgraded to a suite. There was a long hallways inside our room that led to the bedroom. It was decorated very retro 1970's! Before bed we hung out in their room drinking wine and talking about every subject we could think of. Mark and I ended up going to bed around 4am. We actually had a great conversation after we l...

Our Highlight this week was having Chris visit. He comes into town to be with his kids, but there are always complications with timelines and ex's so we were able to spend quite a block of time with him this visit. Divorce must be hard, and sharing kids harder, and dealing with an Ex must be the worst torture ever. I congratulate those that do it so effortlessly without complaint...not sure I could do that. Chris came into town on Monday and surprised us all with a nice dinner out to the Olive Garden (margaritas and all)! It was awesome. The way he loves my kids, and is always so encouraging to them is more than I can ask for. I know that he is my husbands' best friend and that I'm the husbands best friend's wife but I feel just as cherished as Mark does by Chris. Sometimes just when I think I know someone they surprise me, like he does! Wednesday night at 1030 at night he was in the kitchen cooking dinner for us. We ate at 12p and then promptly headed for bed. The food...
