Fall Adventures

I realized there were a few adventures this fall that I missed blogging about. Start off that in September we made it to the Western WA fair. We always made it a point to go every year, so we're keeping the tradition!
Baylee had a great time petting the goats, until it turned around. Right after this shot she freaked out and ran away crying!
Of course checking out the animals is only at the fair has to be followed up by good food. We did get some "healthy" corn in to counter-act the elephant ears and scones we had.
Derek and I also celebrated our 3rd anniversary. His parents watched Baylee overnight while we spent the evening in Seattle. We got a hotel for the night and enjoyed some good food at an awesome Irish Pub followed by entertainment at a dueling pianos bar. We made friends with some fun Canadian girls. I had a blast out there dancing with them and laughing the night away.
As a gift to Derek we got tickets to a Seahawks game.
It was a cold and rainy day (what a surprise) but we still had a great time. Derek's longtime friend came with us and brought his dad. His dad is a lifetime Seahawks fan and has only been to one other game, so it was a real treat for him too!
We spent a Sat morning and drove up to Snoqualmie falls to have breakfast with a friend of mine.
It was absolutely gorgeous and Baylee had a great time running around before sitting down for out brunch.
Kassie and I have been friends for 26 years. She moved up to WA in 5th grade, and we got back in contact about 4 years ago. We used to tell people we were twins when we were younger, and despite years of distance it still seems that way. She too is a nurse now and we have so many interests in common, it's almost scary. It's great to have her around again!
