!st Annual Jingle Bell Run

This year we decided as a family to run in the Seattle 5K Jingle Bell Run for Arthritis. Also, joining us was Aunt Angie,Jed, Trainer Angie, Beth( angie's Sister-in -law) and Beth's Mom. We had so much fun doing this as a team. We got up super early and headed downtown Seattle in the frigid cold. Colder than its ever been in Seattle in 20 years. Burrrrrrrr!!! We had so many layers on we could barely bend our knees to run. Angie and Beth dressed up with Santa Hats and tree skirts(so cute). Next year we will all coordinate and dress up for this event. As we were funning thru the tunnel in seattle we were singing Christmas tunes. It was very cool. After we all crossed the finish line we headed to Pike Place to eat at Lowells. Our usual breakfast stop. Again, great memories and we ran for a good cause. Special to us is a boy named Pete. He never once complained and always had a smile on his face. He played on Zach's flag football team and he has Rheumatoid Arthritis. So our family mantra became "running for PETE." Feels good to make a little difference in someone's life. We love you Pete!!!
Lets do it again next year and bring more people with us.

Annual Downtown TRIP

Well we celebrated another year in downtown Seattle Jed, Ang and Syd. We always get up early the day After Thanksgiving and head to Seattle to see the Macy's Parade. Then we head over to buy pajamas for everyone at Old navy. After shopping there it's time for Lunch at the Nordstrom cafe which we all love. We stayed at the Sheraton this year. They have an awesome pool so the kids swam several times. The Wolgamotts joined us this year one evening so the kids could swim together. Its so beautiful in downtown Seattle, we just love wondering around and doing whatever. We always head to Pike Place Market to have breakfast at Lowell's which has an awesome view of the water and the ferry's. Another magical memory making weekend.
