While Russell was in Indiana this past weekend, I flew home to surprise my mom! No one was supposed to know except my dad...but one thing led to another and quite a few people ended up knowing :) But I was able to surprise Brynley, Kylee and Kennedy...their faces were pretty priceless. I think my body is still recuperating from the weekend, as it involved many activities and little sleep.
After surprising my mom (she had no idea, it was fantastic!) we went to the Cheesecake Factory. It was a first for all of us and we loved it!
Next stop...that's right, we saw WICKED!
We absolutely loved it! I want to see it again and again!
This is my dad at the Farmer's Market the next day. We love the Yakisoba, I dont even know what it is but it's SO good!
This is me in a helicopter! My cousin Mike owns a flight school in Olympia and his dad, my Uncle Pat owed me a ride...he shot me in the eye with a marshmallow gun several years ago!
It was absolutely amazing
We got SO low over the bay!
Black Lake: the lake I grew up playing on and in!
We spent that night with the Shakespeare's! I was so busy playing with the girls I forgot to take pictures! I was so sad when I realized it! We got to see pics of their soon-to-be new house, I can't wait to see it at Christmas, along with thier new baby boy :)
We also made it to a Mariners game!
Complete with Kettle Corn and my Russell replacement!
Seattle in the background and Ivar's fish n' chips for dinner!
The black hawk helicopters that flew over after the national anthem!
My parents sweet seats! I believe this was Griffey up to bat!He had a home run!
Trying to stay warm, it got pretty chilly!
My dad was able to get a single seat two seats in front of us! Thanks for not making me sit by myself :)
And just when you thought we couldn't do anymore...we also made it to Salmon Days with my cousin Kerry!
The sunset was amazing the night I flew back to Utah. But of course the pilot took a hard right turn as I was trying to snap a good shot! Russell's interview in Indiana went well! He is in the airport waiting to fly home from USC, right now. He really loved USC, so we'll see what happens! He did get an interview with Creighton, and that is scheduled for Monday and is luckily at the U and not in Nebraska! I'm anxious to have my husby back, I'm so lonely without him.
