Seattle, Sisters, Shopping

 Seattle, Sisters and Shopping are three words I love seeing in a sentence together!  A couple weeks ago I flew all by myself down to Seattle and met Michele and Lesha for a couple nights in Seattle.  It was officially celebrating Michele's birthday.  Michele picked me up from the airport at about 3:30 on Friday afternoon, Lesha met us soon after, and off we went!  I loved the shopping, mainly because I don't get to shop much where I live.  The conversation was so fun.  We went to The Cheesecake Factory both nights for dinner and took a table for far too long, just chatting away.  We stayed up til at least midnight both nights, we had to make the most of our time.

Ikea was a hit!  We didn't realize when we made the reservation but our hotel was really near to Ikea.  Lots of fun purchases there!  It was such a blessing to spend some really quality time with those girls.  I am really sad that we can't live closer, but at the same time it makes these times together that much more special.  It was so great of Reese to stay with our kids solo for 5 whole days while I met up with my sisters and then headed down to San Diego as well.  He did great with them and I even came home to a pretty clean house.  I look so forward to the years ahead when hopefully I'll be able to sneak away a little easier to meet my sisters.  Hopefully we'll go on lots of little get aways, but for now, I'll take what I can get.  And this little trip was a treat!
