Touring with the Hamptons

Andrew's family came to visit. Aaren brought Josh so it gave us an excuse to run around and be tourists since he's never been here before.

We drove to Snoqualmie Falls about 20 minutes from our house.
Based on a recommendation from Tom and Emily, we took them to the Space Needle and had brunch at the rotating restaurant, SkyCity. It's a little pricey but you don't pay for tickets if you eat there and you avoid waiting in any lines to go up. 
 
 
We found Spider Man at the bottom of the Space Needle and Aiden is still talking about him weeks later. I am understanding how kids get hooked on super heroes. 
 
 In the afternoon, we took the ferry over to Bainbridge Island and wandered around. We found a few stores to check out and ate gelato before getting on the ferry to come home.

 We went out downtown on Friday night in Capitol Hill, played shuffle board and some retro arcade games.

Entertaining Two!

We had Aiden's friend over to our house for a play date while his parents took care of some moving tasks for their new house. They had so much fun with each other and ran around nonstop.

Chris and Bryant Visit

Chris and Bryant came for a long weekend. We had a good time, played games, drank lots, ate sushi, and took very few pictures because... boys. Behind their smiles I think they are cursing me for this one.
Bryant and I attempted the photo booth at the Unicorn. We were sort of successful...

Impromptu in Indy

Aiden and I made a last minute trip to Indy when we realized we wouldn't be able to make a friend's wedding in DC. Instead we were able to be at her wedding shower.  
 
 Being in Indy of course means we got the chance to catch up with family too!
 
We played in the 4-wheelers and checked out Papaw's new barn.

Granny's birthday gift wasn't just for her... 
 We were able to be in town for my dad's birthday. Aiden and MeMe made cupcakes for him. 
Blowing out birthday candles and an early Easter Egg Hunt!
 Lots of ice cream was eaten!
