Saturday in Seattle

We decided to spend the day in Seattle on Saturday

First stop was the Ballard Locks

We saw lots of fish making their way up the fish ladders.

Jason once again found the volume of the water too loud for his liking

Covering his ears (ear) even while holding daddy's hand

This is Jason’s “take picture of me Mommy” face

It's not very often that we find ourselves near my favorite Italian restaurant (Macaroni Grill) so it was the perfect spot for lunch

After little shopping at University Village we made our way through traffic and detours to Coulon Beach. We finally found a parking spot just in time for dinner at Justin's favorite fish house, Ivar's.

In January we found out that Abigail and Jason could both eat fin-fish (However, Abigail is still allergic to shell-fish). This was the first time either of them has tried fish and they both loved it.

Abigail was actually so shocked/embarrassed that she liked it that she wouldn't let me take a picture of her.

The big kids played at the beach and park after dinner while Katie and I hung out in the shade at a much quieter end of the park.

We had a fun day together and it was great to get a break from the yard work that has occupied most of our Saturdays lately.
