OU game in Seattle!

This is a view from the stadium. Absolutely breathtaking!


This is the boat we tailgated on before the game. We were on Lake Union and then Lake Washington which is where the stadium is located.




This is the view from the 72 ft boat we tailgated on before and after the game. AWESOME!

While at the OU game, I noticed two Heisman trophy winners sitting across the aisle from us. During the second quarter, I asked Billy Simms if he would take a picture with me. He said no problem and my friend, Paula jumped in the picture too:) He then asked Steve Owens to get in the picture. Pretty cool! My dad was so proud!








We had such a good time at the OU game in Seattle! It was the best place to watch a game and tailgate for a game. The weather was beautiful! Seattle is breathtaking! I will update with more when I get more pictures!

Trip to Seattle

Some friends and I went to Seattle for a few days. I got to see my family while there and we had a blast! Scott, my brother in law, and twin nieces picked me up at the airport when I arrived on Friday morning. They were asleep when Scott got to the airport and I couldn't wait for them to wake up. I hadn't seen my nieces since March. They had grown so much! They both had just started walking! It was so cute to see them walking. Grace takes a few steps and dives. Kate was taking 8 to 9 steps! Check out the videos of them walking at the bottom of this post!

After we got to their house and played, we went to Alki Beach in West Seattle. We had lunch at a fabulous mexican restaurant and the girls were soooo good! Scott is so calm with them and they are very calm and well behaved. We ate DELIGHTFUL mexican food and then went for a walk at the beach. The girls love to ride in their stroller and see the people, birds and the dogs that are at the beach. They love dogs! It is so funny to watch them when they see a dog:)





After strolling along the beautiful beach, we went to Husky Deli. It is a fabulous little deli that has all sorts of fun foods and wonderful ice cream. Each time we go to Seattle, we have to make a stop at Husky Deli for some ice cream! I had Husky Flake-which is like chocolate chip and Scott thought I was pretty boring. They love, love, love ice cream! Grace makes the funniest face when she first takes a bite. Kate loves Chocolate Brownie!


Paula, my sister in law, had to work on Friday so I didn't get to see her until around 4:00. It was so good to see her! We got to hang out and catch up! On Sunday, they picked me up at the hotel and we had a great brunch! We played all day and then went to Green Lake in Seattle. It was so beautiful!
Here are some video of the girls walking and pictures that I took during the weekend with Scott, Paula and the girls.
