One of the Best Things about Living Here...

Dust and smoke haze make for the most beautiful sunsets!

Wicked Weekend!

Angie and I went to see the BEST musical ever in Seattle this weekend! I can say that since I've seen relatively few Broadway shows in my lifetime, less than 15. Just like with Phantom, I would pay to see Wicked many more times. It was fantastic and sounded just like the soundtrack even though the principals were different.

A fun girls weekend and I forgot my camera! Hard to believe, I know. These are a few of my salvageable iPhone pictures. No matter how much they say they've improved its camera, it is no substitute for my Nikon. We had to rush through dinner but it was a fantastic one anyway. Dragonfish is so good, I will be returning there with my hubby - or whoever else happens to be with me! The next day, we got a treat at my favorite mall treat "red mango". That is the main reason I shop at Bell Square when we head west. A stop at the Renton Ikea and we were headed back home to our families. Great weekend and not a complete financial disaster (not quite enough time at the mall for that).

A Few Plans for the Rest of the Week - Soccer, football, and BBQ party at my sisters, gonna be a busy Saturday!

Nine Years Ago...

Tonight I was partying with all of my best friends and family celebrating the best decision I've ever made. I married the love of my life and my very best friend that day.
Then I spent the rest of the evening hunting him down between beer runs. Ah well, just a preview of our lives to come.
I love you babe! Here's to a long and happy life together...
