8th Annual Seattle Weekend

Friday - Sunday, 12/18-20/09

Our highly anticipated weekend finally arrived! This has been the best gift that Kirstin and I have given to each other for the past 8 years. We have so much fun and we try to make it last longer and longer each year. :-)

This year I left my house at 10am to go get Kirstin and hang out while the guys decided to work (what are they thinkin'??). We ended up having lunch at a new place, South Lake Grill. It was SO yummy! Then we checked in to our room at the Sheraton. We love this hotel because it's location to all the shopping. It is much easier to drop off all our packages since it is right there in the middle of everything.

That night we had our usual meal at Benihana's. Yum, yum!

Saturday is all about shopping! Kirstin and I shop till we literally drop that evening. The guys do a little shopping and a lot of hanging out. :-)

That evening we had dinner reservations at Daniel's Broiler at 8:30pm. Since Darin works downtown now, he was going to show us how to use the transit system to get there. He also wanted to show us the new Amazon buildings going up near Lake Union. We had to raz him a bit about this. He loves where he works now and likes to talk about what they are doing. It is great, but fun to tease him too. :-)

Here we are waiting as Darin gets tickets for the trolley.

It is very nice inside.It was a fun evening and really good food!Sunday the guys went to the Seahawks game and Kirstin and I did some more shopping and then went and watched "New Moon". Love, love, love that movie! (I finally finished the Twilight series on Friday the 26th at 1am - so good!)

It was another great year downtown!
