New York?...not so much.


For the last couple of months, i have been planning a surprise trip for Abe, to see his favorite soccer team play in New York City(i got REALLY good seats for the game!). When i told him on Friday night, we were already on our way to the airport and the bags were packed and ready to go.... he was so excited, i was excited and then something horrible happened! we were flying with buddy passes, and when i called on Monday they said the flight was open, even Friday morning the flight was open.... somewhere between Friday morning and the time we got there the flight had book up! we were numbers 13th and 14th on the list for two available seats! there was no way we could get on the flight and next flight wasn't until late Saturday night, and it wouldn't be worth it because we would miss the game and i couldn't change the hotel reservation!! I cried. All of my hard work and sneakiness was gone within a matter of ten minutes! Abe was so nice, he said the thought was good enough for him and he appreciated everything i did! I was so sad! i was so sad we weren't going to new york(because i have never been) and all the money we lost and i just wanted to try and keep up with all of the great things Abe does for me.
The next day, Abe bought me some pots and flowers to plant to cheer me up( its funny how the trip was for him, but i was so upset and he was trying to cheer me up)what a great husband!

Apparently, this is what our kid is suppose to look like...according to this.
( i had to do it twice, because our first kid was REALLY ugly!)



Thanks Stacy for showing me this!

I'm not a "plant killer" ...I've just had a little bad luck.... you just wait.

Seattle!

Me and Abe went to Seattle last weekend with the weights to see the stocks!( i guess when you are married you just call other couples by their last names?)It was really beautiful and REALLY cold! Here are just some of the things we did:


"The Gum wall" Yes, its a wall(or walls) cover in gum! WE added our gum to the wall also

Just being dorky at the science fiction museum!
Me , Katie, Chelsea and Petra at the Whidbey Island history museum
Us at the sounders vs. real salt lake soccer game... It was freezing!
Whidbey Island was probably my favorite thing we did when we were there...not only because it was beautiful, but because we got to ride a ferry there!

Our room at the Ace hotel, Where we stayed the first night there.



*Thanks Chelsea and Jeff for letting us stay with you!
