this past weekend

Sean had class in Seattle.

I went along with him.

We left our children with their aunt, uncle and cousins.

Our children ended up getting bad colds and were kinda grumpy for their cousins.

Sorry about that, cousins.

Sean and I ate at Claim Jumper Friday night.

We split a salad and the best sandwich ever.  It's called the Grilled Cobb Sandwich if you're curious.

We shopped at Target and filled our cart with a lot of stuff.

Target is dangerous.  Danger with a capital d.  It's a good thing we don't have one of them Targets in F.H.

Sean left the hotel room for class early Saturday morning.

I took my sweet time leaving the hotel.

Then I went straight to Starbucks.

I had 3 grande, non-fat, extra hot, carmel macchiatos in one day.

It's a good thing we don't have one of them Starbucks in F.H.

I shopped at IKEA for a couple hours.

My new couch is at IKEA.

I will come back for you new couch.

Then I headed to the South Center Mall.

I made a bee-line for H&M.

It's a good thing we don't have a Mall or an H&M in F.H.

It was time to pick up Sean from class.

We were hungry.

We picked up some lunch from Chipotle.

I like Chipotle.  A lot.

It's a good thing we don't have one of them Chipotle's in F.H.

We made the 5:20pm ferry.

We took a little nap in the car while on the ferry.

We finally arrived Friday Harbor at 7:20pm.

We picked up our coughing, snorting, grumpy children from the cousins.

We emptied the car of our stuff.

We went to bed.

Sean woke up Sunday morning siiiiiick.  Real sick.

Stella coughed most of the night.

We missed church.

We're better now.

It's a good thing because Sean's brother and family are coming to visit!!!!!!!

Oh! and while off-island I had the opportunity to photograph a beautiful baby girl and one of her big brothers (the other two were at school).

It was my first traveling photography session.

You can see more of that session on my facebook fan page soon.

If you want to.

I would say check them out on my photography website, but that's not ready yet.

Anyway...

Here's a little sneak peek of the sweet baby.

She was cuuuute.

I wanted to take her home.

She is the baby that was inside the mom in this post.



It was a good weekend.

The end.

YUM. I love CJ's & Chipolte. And Starbucks. I got my bed in college from IKEA. Otherwise that store scares me. It's big!

Miss you lots. I like your photography logo. T

Sounds like you guys had fun! I understand what your saying about the stores, all those things are 2 hours from us too. I always think, it's a good thing we aren't closer or I would be spending alot more money every day! Hope everyone is feeling better! Random question but what is Sean's brothers name and family and where are they from?

So in total, how long will my trip be to F.H? :) hehe. We look forward to it and will bring you any supplies that you may need that are off-island!!

I just love the way you wrote this. In my sleepy-head I was reading it like you were a college gal reading it like you were at an open mic.

So funny! I sometimes wish I didn't have all of those things within 10 min of my house, it can be dangerous! All my faves too! :)

I think you need to get off the island more often. Like come visit a few Gormleys in Waterville!
We don't have a Target, Starbucks, IKEA, or a mall so there will be no temptations whatsoever...just a thought :)

Getting away with just your husband, even for just a day, what a treat!!! sORRY SEAN AND THE KIDS GOT SO SICK, YUCKY!

The Wilde Family said...

Yay for getaways without the kids! I hope everyone feels better soon. I love that FH doesn't have the city shops b/c it's so nice to go to them when your off island. 3 grandes in 1 day, now that sounds like my kinda day :)
