Seattle Birthday Visit

I was in Seattle recently for my grandma's 80th birthday (and also my 31st - we share the same birthday). I flew solo since Ethan stayed behind to feed Luna (and work - duty calls). It was a great weekend - my sister was home too and we were able to see lots of family and friends. Here are some of the weekend's events:

The family surprised her with a fancy flat screen TV!


I had a friend's night out for my birthday. Kathleen, Danica, Cara and I had dinner at my fave - Madame K's. Then we headed to King's Hardware to meet some more folks before heading to the Tractor Tavern for some special live music.

My cousin Zoe played a show at the Tractor. She's the lead singer in Zoe Muth and the Lost High Rollers. She is also featured this month in Sound Magazine. (That's her on the cover - far right!) This was my first chance to see her live and it was a great performance! She's got talent.

I met up with Erin, Trinette and her 3 mo. old baby Gwen. We played catch up and got a glimpse of mommyhood. :) It sounds nice.


Gwen is a cutie! Just look at those eyes - she's going to be a heartbreaker...

Brunch at Bad Albert's with Danica and Meghan, followed by some Ballard Ave shopping. Always a good time!

Something is missing here... we missed you, Ethan!
