We chose to go to Seattle to celebrate our 7th anniversary. Luckily, my mom and Grant's mom took a 30 hour shift of watching Parker. We decided to stay 12 miles outside of Seattle and take that savings of hotel rates and do some fun stuff. We went out on a 2 1/2 hour boat tour. It was amazing! It was really cloudy when we started out, but cleared up towards the end of it.
Norwegian Cruise Ship- Alaska bound.
Beautiful skyline
There were so many boaters out. Our tour guide told us that 1 in 8 people in Seattle own a recreational boat.
Entering the locks.
The Wizard- the star of "The Deadliest Catch" TV show.
This is the houseboat from "Sleepless in Seattle." It was recently listed for $2.5 million dollars.
I now want to kayak someday.
No trip to Seattle is complete until you visit Pike Place Market.
After Pike Place, we headed to dinner at Ipanema, a Brazilian restaurant. It was amazing. Their salad bar is incredible and they bring around meats on swords. Yum!
On our way out of town, we walked around Tacoma's Glass Museum.
This is on a bridge going over the freeway. It is definitely the most artistic bridge I have ever seen.
The building in the background is the old Amtrak station.
These glass columns are huge. Look at the bottom to see Grant standing inside one.
These gorgeous glass pieces are overhead on the bridge.
Not the best picture. I am holding the camera above the ground and bending over it.
When we got home, we raced in to see Parker. He was SO excited. He wanted to hug and kiss us at the same time and kept saying, "MY FAMILY!" When we sat down in the living room, he kept running back and forth between Mommy and Daddy to give us big loves. Sweet boy! He did great with both Grandmas.

A 42 million dollar scientific vessel turned yacht. Equipped with a helicopter landing pad and submarines. Maybe Grant and I will charter this ship for our 10th anniversary. Yeah right! http://www.fraseryachts.com/Sale/sale_gallery.aspx?YachtID=Y14_MR_SD View this gallery of pictures. Incredible!

I liked the last image you posted. It is such a unique sculpture. It has a nice modern appeal. Where is this piece located?
Love the pictures. Makes me want to visit Seattle.
