Trip Highlights

Ally's favorite part: the ocean beach

Blake's favorite part: Alki

Andrew's favorite part: the Mariners game (shocking, huh?)

My favorite part: yes. all. thank you.

Best quote: "The biggest difference between Texas and Washington is that it rains all the time in Texas but not in Seattle." (said by Andrew during the first week....he did change his tune by the second week.)

Best food: tie between casino seafood and dad's salmon!

Worst part of trip: tie between the awful turbulance-filled flight back and having to leave on that awful turbulance-filled flight back in the first place (did I mention we had turbulance?)

Biggest job that didn't get done: Andrew trying to fill up the Sound with rocks.....and the ocean....and any other body of water that needs rocks thrown in it.

Number of items I realized I left: 46 and counting or so it seems.

Number of items I realized I took from mom's house (with permission): 1046 or so it seems.

Number of items I realized I took accidentally: 1 (sorry Tracy, I'll send your DVD back as soon as I can)

Biggest revelation: 9 kitties in one house may be a FEW too many. (but it sure is fun)

Best part about being home: my kitty has forgiven me even if they did spoil him at the kitty hotel. Proof: his favorite place to sleep is my kitchen counter, eeewwww. No kitties allowed where I prepare food.
