August was a whirlwind of a month for us. I think I was gone more than I was home. BUT I loved every second of it and really wouldn't have it any other way.
It started with an evening up at arbor crest winery celebrating Megan's birthday. If you have never been up there you should check it out. They had a live band (Sammy Eubanks!) and you just bring your own snacks and seats and hang out and drink there amazing wine. We had quite the crew this year...I am already looking forward to it again next year!
2 days after the winery we set out for our 4th annual camping trip up at priest. This is by far my favorite summer tradition and I believe it deserves its own blog post so look for that soon!
The day after camping Megs and I headed to Seattle for a 4 day all girls fest. Our friend Landis's boyfriend flew her in for a visit, THANKS MATT! We were able to be together for the first time in a loooong time! These girls mean the world to me and I don't know what I would do without them. We all communicate a ridiculous amount via email, but its so much better in person! There is really nothing I wouldn't do for any one of them, seriously these girls are my rock. I am truly blessed every single day by each and every one of them!!!!
Our time together pretty much consisted of eating, drinking, and talking...with a few excursions thrown in for good measure. Here we are the first night toasting to what else...US (and fuller and jax who couldn't be there)
here we are again that same night at Kings hardware discussing our million dollar idea. Shhh I cant talk about it yet but just you wait its BRILLIANT :)
The 2nd day we decided to be tourists and hit up the Space needle. I have never been up to the top before and it was a gorgeous day for it. I did not fare so well on the elevator up (i had to close my eyes and squeeze dawn's hand) but I was able to make it out to the deck and take in the sights.
beautiful days like this remind me why its called emerald city...it really does sparkle, doesn't it?
Our last night in town we hit up a sounders game. I have been before but a couple of the girls hadn't. it wasn't a regular season game so it wasn't as packed and intense as usual but we still managed to have a good time!
This is one of my favorite pictures from the trip-us celebrating the win and each other :)
This sign kinda epitomizes a girl trip. If you have a group of girlfriends you know what I mean. We don't do it maliciously, its just one of those things that happens. if you cant read it it says: "don't talk about yourself, we'll do that after you leave" HA! I love it :)
