Elijah's First Trip to Seattle!

Last weekend we (as in, me and Elijah....Daddy got the flu and could not go) went to Seattle for Aaron's (mind you) cousin's wedding. We had a fabulous time there!  Albeit, a bit draining and a bit of a trial for what was (somewhat) unexpectedly to come this week!  Thank God for Bob & Bridget.  I think I would have flown home early, OR stayed in the hotel room the whole time if they had not been with me!
We did, however, like I state before, have a great time.  The wedding was beautiful set out in the country about 45 minutes north east of Seattle in an area called Snohomish (man its Native American names everywhere up there- really hard to pronounce!).
Here are the highlights:

  • Bob Drove on the sidewalk, almost hit a homeless man (who stated to Bob's nephew that Bob was "one crazy mother-F'r"- HAHAHAHA), turned into a one-way parking lot - the wrong way, was forced to BACKOUT of the parking lot by one very loud lady-parking gaurd.
  • Elijah was almost perfect during the wedding ceremony
  • The groom lost his passport and we still aren't sure if they ever made it on to their honeymoon
  • Elijah saw his first snow (and I did NOT get a picture of it....oops!)
  • We watched a 15 year girl catch a fish (i.e. the fish market people through it to her) at Pike's Place Public Market
  • Elijah slept in my arms for at least a half hour on the flights going and coming -thank god.
Here is what I learned: Traveling with an infant is difficult.


And HERE are the pictures!

  1. Well, I'm glad you had a good time some of the time :). Yep, travelling with an infant is challenging, especially when your other half isn't able to be there! Thank God for grandparents! Love you!!!
