Seattle Day 2

 February 16 we made another trip back to Seattle.  This is our third time there since we moved to Washington.  We've done pretty well at surviving in our remote little town, but sometimes there are things that you need and that are harder to buy online, like shoes.  Chant needed some new shoes desperately and our selection of JcPenney and Payless weren't working.  Chant seems to always be able to go into a store and find exactly what he needs in the size he needs.  Not this time.  There were a few other things we had to get, so off we went.

This time was so nice because we were able to get an early start and we didn't have a temple trip in the middle of the day, so we had the entire day to do what we wanted.  We got to Seattle about 10:00.  The view from the ferry coming over was absolutely beautiful.  It was so windy that we only stayed outside for a minute, but it was gorgeous.

Once we found a place to park, we got out and started walking.  We found this awesome little play area which was right next to a store I needed to go into.  The kids played with Chant while I ran in.  We were so lucky to have another beautiful day.

 Our next stop was the gum wall.  It's not so much a wall as an entire section of an alley that is just covered in gum.  So gross!  But yet cool at the same time.

 We had to add our own gum to the wall.  We put it on the window ledge right behind us.

 Brinnley did a little squeal when she saw her best friend's name written out.  We HAD to take a picture!  Miss you Kelsey!

 Next was the Fish Market.  We saw them throw a few things around, but it was kind of a quiet day.  Still a fun experience.

 And then we hit the Olympic Sculpture Park.  It's a huge area, and we only saw a small portion.  But what we did see was cool.

 I love the & sign.

This thing was random, but cool.  Chant did a great job of lining it up so the Space Needle was in the perfect position.

Our last stop before heading home was another visit to see the Fremont Troll.  But he's already had enough camera time so I'll leave him out :)


I had to include this video.  While we were wandering the streets of downtown, there was an awesome street musician and Porter was getting into it.  Love that kid!  The other day I asked him if he could do any sport or activity, what would he choose.  He said a break dancing class.  Love it!

We had an amazing day!
