not so SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE

We had a great trip to Seattle & Portland a few weekends ago. I love the Northwest and it was so fun to see all of Mark's College buddies with their new little ones! 
Gracie was great on the plane...she saved her 'crabbiness' for the poor babysitter. 

Grace & Mark at the Pike's Place Fish Market!

 How times have changed...Mark's frat buddies with their kids...Zach & Bennet Linster, Mark & you know who and Chris Hawley with his daughter Ryland. 
Here is Gracie at our favorite sandwich shop - Elliot Bay. I love the look on her face. I feel like she is saying, "Geez, are you really going to eat that entire sandwich?"  The answer, as always is YES!


  On the way to Portland we went to the gorgeous University of Puget Sound! I finally got to see the campus and it is beautiful! I think it will only be about $200k a year by the time Gracie gets there. 
 I love this pic! Mark in front of his old frat house...changing a diaper!  Again...how times have changed!
 Here is Gracie with her Portland boyfriend - the adorable Henry Tydeman!  He is so sweet!!
Mark & his buddy Rian Tydeman strollin' to breakfast in Portland.  Thank you to the Tydeman's for a wonderful time in Portland!  You out did yourselves & we can't wait to see you back in OR soon!
