Long over due

So I realized that I really haven't blogged in quite a while. Even Katie has been more active then me. Totally unacceptable! So here's a little update on what I've been up to lately.

Seattle: Last weekend, Katie, Mom and I headed to Seattle to spend Mother's Day with our family. We saw our Uncle Raymond's apartment in downtown Seattle. He had the most amazing view of the waterfront and the Space Needle. It was a great adventure. Here are a few pics from our outing.
And one of the tulips down at Pike's Place Market. The flowers were amazing. We had a great time, marred only by the fact that my brakes weren't working so great. No worries though, we made it safely there and back!

The return home saw me dealing with my unsafe breaks on my barely four-month old car. I was not happy to say the least! I took a half-day sub to deal with getting my breaks fixed. After spending an hour and a half at the dealership, they came to tell me that my car wasn't safe to drive (a big shock that one), and that they'd arranged for a rental for me since they needed to keep it for one more day. Long story short, my car now brakes like a dream! Woo hoo. God I love warranty work!!!

Trent and Marci's wedding:
Last but not least in my week of fun, Katie and I got to see our friends Trent and Marci tie the knot. We had a lot of fun with our friends Tara and David at the reception. Enjoying a quick beer at Northern Lights Brewery (a screwdriver for me), while the church quickly changed over to the reception. Lucky for us it was right next door. The wedding was a perfect celebration of their relationship. Here's a couple pics from the reception and them leaving the festivities.

Of course I took pics of the shoes! I posted the shoe pics on my facebook page, and Katie has them up on her blog. I didn't want to steal her thunder!

What was wrong with your brakes? That is weird... Glad you guys made it up and down the pass safely! Sorry we missed the party.Kip was working and I was at a service for a friend who died one year ago.
