Andrea!!!!

So, one of my GREATEST friends of all time came out to visit with her boyfriend this weekend!  I've been looking forward to this for months (since she bought the tickets) for two reasons: she'd be celebrating her 30th birthday with us and I got to meet her boyfriend, Craig.  I think the latter was the biggest reason!

Aren't they cute??  The famous pig at Pikes Place.

Her camera battery died right when we got there so I gave her my camera to take pics.  I didn't not give her permission to take MY picture!

Ah, Starbucks.  I love this place.

At the top of the Needle.  It was windy but at least it wasn't raining like it was supposed to be!

The monorail was decorated like the Hogwarts Express because there's a Harry Potter exhibit at the science center.  I would LOVE to go but Chuck IS NOT a fan...

Then we saw this when we were headed back to the market.  They're making cheese in HUGE tubs.  It was pretty cool.  This thing was like a really big mixer moving back and forth.  The two that are out of the water are being taken out by a worker.

My beautiful daughter asking for her first taste of Starbucks.  I did NOT give it to her.

Gettin' coffee at the very first Starbucks.  LOVE this place.  And love this girl!  Miss you already.

We went out for dinner for Andrea's 30th birthday at Tugboat Annie's.  Aaron wanted to eat the tree off the appetizer plate.  Whatever. He's really not making a face, he's saying cheese.

And he is definitely a messy eater.  I do not do well with that. Drives me nuts!

Awe!  Happy birthday, Andrea!!

Cheese, again!

Wow, I can probably count on two hands how many pictures we have like this, it's sad...

So cute together

We had such a great time!!  I was so glad they both got to come out, I was so wanting to meet Craig.  He's SUCH a nice a guy, she got a great guy!
