What an amazing weekend! Jody and I were itching to get up to Seattle to start checking out our new home and we couldn't have picked a more perfect weekend. The weather was unseasonable clear and rain free, which made exploring much more enjoyable.
We headed up on Friday afternoon and made a pit stop to visit with Jody's grandparents. They put us up for the night and we headed north early Saturday morning. Once we got to Seattle we drove around for hours checking out Green Lake, Wallingford, Fremont and Ballard. Late in the afternoon we headed downtown for some shopping and dinner. Jody purchased some new jeans, since he has lost weight, and I purchased some maternity tops, since I'm expanding rapidly. We didn't forget about the sweet P and bought him/her this adorable little onesie......
it's covered in little vespas♥
Sunday morning we woke up and explored Queen Anne and Magnolia before heading to brunch at Toulouse Petit. The food was really good but the best part was getting to see a familiar face from Valdosta. Catherine has lived in Seattle for a few years now and it is always great to catch up with her. It's also really nice to know I'm going to have a southern gal to hang with when we finally get settled.
The last thing we did before heading out of town was head over to Mercer Island. Jody's dad, Jim, grew up on Mercer Island and we wanted to see his childhood home. We took this picture for Jimbo........memories like the corner of my mind♪♫
