Seattle Flowers






Every time I am in Seattle, I walk to Pikes Market and get a bunch of flowers.  These are two bouquets that I picked up in the last few weeks.  
And the last picture is of a cute pumpkin and some fall leaves I picked off the trees outside.

So fun...
Just practicing my photography...

Best Friends Wedding...






I can't believe the places I get to go and the people I get to be with.

One of my best friend's daughter got married in July! She is also my daughter's best friend.  Which makes a heck of a fun time and a lot of tears.

My girlie and I got to fly out to Louisiana and then drive to Alabama to see this sweet girl tie the knot.

By the way, the beaches are gorgeous there... just so DANG hot! I mean come on.. there is no cooling off!

The wedding was gorgeous, the bride was gorgeous, the momma of the bride was gorgeous and of course her blonde brides maid is gorgeous.

It was a gorgeous time...

Seattle in July...









Like I said in previous post, we visited Seattle during the week of 4th of July.
We enjoyed the cooler weather which is always nice.
I say I could live in the PNW but all my friends say I would need more sunshine.
I am not sure about that.  I do LOVE the RAIN!

My girl and I enjoy exploring the city.
We have pretty much explored every nook and cranny over the last 6 years.

The job is almost complete and we are happy to be almost done BUT we have enjoyed visiting often.

Blessings,
Kim

Traveling With Friends...





Traveling with friends is the BEST!
Especially these friends...
Our friends visited us in Seattle for a week and then
 we took a few days and headed to Victoria BC.  We rode a ferry over and explored the island for two nights and two days.  We walked our tails off. 

One of the places we visited was Butchart Gardens.  It was GORGEOUS!! The beauty of the flowers and the smells were incredible.
The pictures only give a glimpse into the beauty.

Our friends are life long friends...
I have been friends (sisters) with my Lisa for my entire adult life.  We were kindred spirits and went through many of the same things in life.  
She held my hand through most of them...
What a blessings she is...

Blessings,
Kim

More Hawaii Pics....





I am not sure what I am doing with this little blog...
This may be my last year.  

I do love taking pics, practicing and having a place to display them.  But- my life is kind of all over the place. Literally...

These pics were on my camera forever.  I finally took them off and edited them.  We had a beautiful time in Hawaii and it seems like forever ago.
I will be blogging our summer adventures over the next few days.

Blessings.

Hawaii Hike.....








Last week we went to Hawaii for a week....
It was a nice family vacation... We were able to do some different things because we went to Oahu instead of Maui.
We were able to visit Pearl Harbor, which was a favorite of my sons, since he is a History Major. 

Also, on one of the days we went up a hike called Ehuki Pill Box Hike.  At the end of a steep climb up, you find a Army Pill Box... which is a bunker for the military defense during World War 2.

It was a good work out.  The Pill Box is now covered in graffiti.  But it was a beautiful view of the Pacific Ocean...

Fast February





I had to go to my home town for the entire month of February.
My dad has been very ill and I had to fly out to help him and my step mom out.  He was in the hospital for 15 days.

It has been difficult for many reasons but mostly because its hard to see your parents not feeling good.
The good news is that we have assurance that this life is not everything.  We will have eternal life because of Christ Jesus.
For now, I love, I serve, and bonus... I get to see some of my grands : )

Oh, and we celebrated 28 years of marriage! I can honestly say that I am more in love now with my husband than the day I married him.

These are all pics from my iPhone. 
One day I will pick up my camera again. :)

Blessings,
Kim
