Seattle

Back in June we went to Seattle. Ryan had a business conference, and Beckett & I decided to come along. Beckett was very good on the plane, although not perfect! It was definitely a 2 person job keeping him happy and entertained for the flight!

Also, my pictures are scattered since Chrome doesn't allow for the rearrangement of photos!

Woodland Park Zoo. I just had to get a picture of Beckett with this statue!

We went to Pike's Market Place. There were so many fun little shops from flowers to food to trinkets to artwork. I found a little French Pastry shop that I absolutely loved. Beckett & I went there twice while Ryan was in meetings. It was just fun walking around downtown Seattle. Something that I really loved about Seattle was there were NO billboards!! It was just wonderful!!

The Space Needle. You can't go to Seattle without stopping by the Space Needle!

The Experience Music Project. This was a pretty cool building. Inside they had two HUGE screens showing music concerts. It was very cool.

This was a fun fountain near the Space Needle. It was pretty cold, but the kids were soaking wet anyway! The water went to music much like the Belagio in Vegas.

Snoqualmie Falls. This was a beautiful waterfall outside of Seattle. The hike was very short to get to the overlook, and was perfect for a short outing with Beckett.


This was on our "hike" back to the car after we saw the Falls.

We ate the most delicious seafood at a place called Steamers. I had fish tacos for the first time there, but this photo is of a delicious salad and fish kabobs. Ryan ordered a burger, but the next time he ordered seafood. I would go back there in a heartbeat. It was absolutely amazing.

We took a ferry to Vashon Island and back. Ryan and I enjoyed the boat ride, and we thought Beckett would enjoy it. We all enjoyed the ride back much more since we went outside.

I've never been to Seattle before, it looks amazing!
Tylor is from Washington so we were thinking about going on a road-trip to Seattle at the end of the school year. These pictures just got me really excited!
