It was a beautiful morning to sail over on the Washington State Ferry ....
Susan planned a really nice simple dinner of soup and bread with Eli and Emily ... it is always so relaxing with this crew ... here we are after dinner ... most of us had somehow switched seats and just kept chatting ....
I wish Chris would take a page from this family's book ... once eating is done, there is no need to rush off to the next thing. Look how relaxed everyone is? Just enjoying each others company ....
Even at the doorway they stood around chatting .... no rush to leave .... even though she must be exhausted! Doesn't she look great!! This is 32 weeks!!
Buddy and I had breakfast together .... such a finicky bird but came in for a landing once he saw I had an orange ....
Susan arranged a Spa Day for us ... her timing was perfect! I was tired, sick and my toes needed some work done in order to be ready for summer!! We went early to enjoy the robes and the steam room before our pedicures ... it was nice ...
All relaxed and pampered....
We laughed at her polish -- she loves getting polish that will grow out nice, but this was pretty sheer, like there was no polish at all ... so, it will grow out well!
Walk down to the water ....
Soup, Salad, breadsticks!! Not a US getaway trip without lunch at this place ....we hit up Trader Joes and stocked up on some fun things ...
Turns out there was a suicide jumper on one of the overpasses on our route home, so enstead of waiting in traffic, we explored downtown a little bit - here we are hunting down "Found Leather", a little leather shop that she follows on Instagram .... it was kind of fun snooping around this old building .. the stairs were so old and the smell was amazing .... we found them, but they were closed ..
After the treasure hunt, we hit the beach .....
We met Daniel for tacos since he had finished his truck run for the day, and the evening just went by so fast! I wish I had gotten a picture, he is a nice man .... he shared some of his sour cream with me for my taco because mine was too spicey ;-) We hit up Fred Meyer after dinner, I got the boys a pair of nice shorts, Chris a shirt, and a pair of burgundy knock off birkenstocks.....super cute .....
Mike got up really early and had a beautiful breakfast laid out for me when I got up for 6:45am ... he even lined up all my condiment options and had fresh coffee ready .... he went out of his way to make me feel pretty spoiled .... I actually got a bit teary at one point because of how he lined up the jams ... nobody ever does that for me ....
