And Then There Was Light

Well, this past weekend the clouds and rain here in the Seattle area parted and gave us some beautiful weather! And, fortunately, we had nothing going on and we were feeling great so we took advantage of the wonderful sunlight and warmth.

Saturday we went on a drive to Bremerton. (We made a detour to Cabella's to look at all the things we'd love to have, but can't have right now.) At Bremerton we hopped on a ferry ride to Seattle. (There is a little bit of picture overload coming up from our weekend!)



Mt. Rainier off in the distance
 

Yes, we are wearing sweatshirts/jackets, but that's only because as soon as we got on the ferry the clouds found us, and with the wind it was just a little chilly. But still, it was a beautiful day!

We then stopped in at little Italian bakery/shop and Matt got very excited! He's hoping he found some pesto sauce he loves and been wanting to try for a while. I guess we'll find out tonight. :)

Sunday was even more lovely! So, we headed out with our good friends for a little drive to Snoqualmie Falls. It was SO beautiful at Snoqualmie Falls and even on the drive there and back!
I like this picture because it has Matt's reflection :)

Matt made me do a little photo shoot, this pose was all his idea!
 

It was so great being able to get out and see more of the beautiful Seattle area. We have enjoyed living here, but we realized on these outings just why people love it here. When the sun comes out, it's just fabulous! We just wish it would happen more often. :)

Today, unfortunately, we're back to clouds and rain. But at least we had a weekend of fun to hopefully last us till our next adventure! :)

*p.s. less than 50 days till baby's anticipated arrival!*
