Seattle Trip

So... we went to Seattle over the weekend for a quick trip. This was how Snoqualmie pass was to drive through, I am taking a picture from the side of the road, where we are sitting with a flat! Yep... a flat. I was driving and hit this pothole that I couldn't avoid and my hub cap flew off and my tire popped. Ironically, we had JUST put those tires on that morning! But... luckily my husband is awesome and would he would like to report that he had our tire changed in about 12 1/2 minutes. :) It was actually pretty scary for me and the two boys in the car waiting, we were on straight away, but the roads were bad and I was so afraid of someone hitting us while we were sitting there. Cameron, Jaxon and I prayed while we sat there and that was comforting. A ton of big trucks were pulling over while we sat there and putting chains on. But, we did make it safe, and the way home was totally clear. It was an adventure!

 

 Not too far down the road we were sitting for about a half hour waiting for an accident to clear, so we watched Megamind. It has to be one of our favorites!

I guess after all the excitement from the drive there, we totally forgot to take any other pictures, so this is the only one. We had a BLAST together. We dropped the boys off with their dad, who lives over in Everette for the weekend, and then we went SHOPPING! Not the typical kind though... one of the things we love to do most is go to thrift stores and see what kind of deals we can get, so we looked up about everyone we could between about 4 cities and went to them all. It was so fun! We found some great items for great deals. I wish I had taken a picture of our car, it was loaded! But we got a lot of our Christmas shopping done for a fraction of the price, which is important with 6 kids!

                                                       

Ok...maybe there was one more picture. SO, we had a hottub in our hotel room... and I hope this isn't a dirty picture, its not intended to be!! But, Don stepped into the bathroom and I put bubbles in the hottub and turned on the jets, not thinking, so when he came out there were bubbles EVERYWHERE!! It was so funny.
