Seattle trip and Seahawks game

We went to Seattle for the weekend. Nick's company (Bellevue Health Care) takes all employees to a Seahawks game every year, and we decided to make a weekend of it. Our friends Christie and Mark went to Seattle that weekend as well, so we met up with them too.

Beautiful hotel with a gorgeous view of Elliot's Bay

Street performing Johnny Hahn. He's a staple in Seattle and is special for Jamie to see him each time. When Jamie was little she can remember listening to him with her dad, who passed away in 2001. He plays piano and sings songs... mostly political songs. Jamie's dad bought one of his CD's about 20 years ago, and Jamie still has it. What a cherished memory. 

Of course you'll find a mini car in Seattle

Nick says the car is thiiiiiiiiis big!

Jamie adding to the famous gum wall in Seattle

Ewe.. don't touch the wall!

Oh yeah... the famous garlic fries.

We love those fries!

Nick went to high school with Kyle, so it was fun to catch up.
