The last of the Oregon/Washington Pictures

I am so ready to be done with these! LOL Note to self: don't take 1300 pictures next time you take a trip!!!!!!

On the 4th of July we were at Camilla's wedding, so we didn't do sparklers that night. So on the beach one night we did. Unfortunately, Breccan decided he was afraid of them and wouldn't touch them. So no pics of him...

And then we headed to Seattle with Jill and Scott.

It was a seriously LOOOOONG drive up there along the coast. We finally made it to the 5:30 p.m. shuttle to Seattle.

And then we decided to head to the Space Needle. For my little family this was a mistake. BayLea and Breccan were beyond tired, and they were just a wee bit out of control up there. Banshee mode. What we should have done was hit a park and let them play, play, play. But they got to experience it; and sorry Auntie Jill, Uncle Scott and Aaron and Lacey, you got to see my kiddos in banshee mode!

Breccan loves his cousin Aaron.

And BayLea loves her cousin Lacey!

Afterward we hauled our kids out of the Space Needle and checked into the Westin hotel, we opened the curtain to this view...

Not sure how we scored like this cuz we usually get the furthest back corner, overlook some spectacular alley way and rooftop! This was amazing!

The next day we decided to take the Duck Tour. What a blast that was! Our tour guide was hilarious, and he played lots of fun music for us to sing along to. We toured around Seattle's highlights and then drove into the lake for a boat ride!

Our guide...the man of many hats/hairdos...he must have changed his hat 10 times during our trip.

The house from Sleepless in Seattle! These lake houses were built by the loggers way back when when they were forced out of the downtown area by the rich folks. So they build these little contraptions on the lake. These now sell for $500,000 - $1 million dollars. Unreal.

Okay...one most post to do, and a couple videos to share later!
