Seattle

The Blakes family vacation this year was quite different than last year. We spent 5 days enjoying downtown Seattle. I have always wanted to visit this town and since we were not wanting to go the Mexico route again, we decided to try it out with the little girl. Addie was amazing considering we trucked her around this huge city for 5 days. We hit all the main spots...especially the kid friendly ones.

This is Addie's view each morning while eating her breakfast...spoiled?

Addis is getting more and more attached to blankie. Here is her, tired and ready for a nap...on a sidewalk. :)


Seattle has the most AMAZING public water fountain! It is a huge structure and the water comes out to classical music so it continues to get bigger and bigger as the song goes on. We took Addie down to see it and let her walk around. Well...a sprout of water shot out, hit her and continued getting her since she tried to run away while it was getting bigger to the music. It was soooo funny! She was not a fan.













The first Starbucks...I think I have invested enough in this company to help open a few shops.

The fish market at Pikes Place. They have this ugly monk fish...Addie and I went to look at it and it started moving!...they have it on a string to scare customers. Funny. Very funny.
