Claridy Visit

Had a wonderful time with the Claridys. Those boys can sure keep a crowd busy. We ventured off for some great adventures. Here is the stuff that I'm sure they quickly forgot about as you'll see towards the end of the post.
We went to Red Robin where Sean was a food critic and got both him and Glynn a free dessert!

Then we hit up the Seattle Aquarium for some fun. Syd had a great time staring at everything in sight. The boys had a great time running through as fast as possible although not as fast as when they came a few years ago so we're doing better :)
Uncle Scott was able to take a few days off and vetured out with us to the Pacific Science Center. We had a great time and Syd even had a section for her age so she could get out and run around.

There is a little roller coaster outside of the science center and Sean was SO excited to ride the roller coaster but he was too short to ride it :( So sad watching him walk towards it with his hands in his pockets. If only he were a smidge taller...


After the science center we needed to endure some good grub so we went to the Crab Pot and put our bibs on and ate more crab than we could endure. I think Michael and myself worked harder than actually ate trying to get the crab meat out for the boys but it was lots of fun and to top it off got dessert in the end :)
We also went to the lake one afternoon, I think the coldest afternoon of all but the boys wanted to swim. Needless to say we didn't stay long at all :)


Ok and last but not least we took the boys to a Mariners game. They are really into baseball these days so it was a big deal. We explained to them that if we go early we may or may not be able to catch some practice balls and get an autograph. We tried to tell them that the odds were really slim and to not get your hopes up...yeah right. So needless to say they boys went with huge eyes and gloves ready to catch and a pen ready to sign. Well they really lucked out cause they got an autograph ball AND they caught a practice ball. Life is good I tell ya. It was a fun night for sure, one to erase really anything else we'd done earlier that week haha
