Sorry it's been so long since the last post. We've had out-of-town company and have more coming in tomorrow. Dan, one of our friends from Michigan, was here this past weekend helping his son, Tim, move to Ft. Lewis. It's so nice to have company and actually take the time to do some fun, touristy things. We visited Pike Place Market, the Space Needle and went to Mt. Rainier this weekend. It was snowing at the observation center on Mt. Rainier. I, of course, was totally unprepared in my capri's and Teva's. Lesson learned.
While we were in Seattle this weekend, Matthew decided that he wanted to go on one of the rides at the Seattle Center. I was a little hesitant and worried that he would want off as soon as the ride started. However, Matthew loved it!! He actually rode the cars 3 times and another ride once as well.
Of course, now that Dan has returned home, it's sunny and beautiful. Oh well, better luck next time.
Gary and Ellen arrive tomorrow and Tim G. on Friday. We're all getting ready for the Seattle Rock and Roll Half Marathon. Very exciting!! A special thanks to Irina and Jacques for stepping in at the last minute to take care of Matthew during the race. Wish us all luck!!

Better lock up them car keys! Boys are drawn to vehicles. I release the parking brake on a truck that was parked on a steep hill, just outside our home when I was 8 years old! The truck rolled down the hill very quickly and I jumped out! Went through 2 intersections but did not hit anything - this easily could have been fatal to me and a number of innocent people. I never did that again! (I never told my folks either!).
