Scenes From August

I know we're halfway through September, but I still wanted to post these pictures from August. This post is extra special because this was our last month in Seattle. I didn't know it would be our last month in any of these pictures, but I am thankful for all of these wonderful memories. The kids and I are doing well in MN. We are really missing Joe, but thankful he's coming to visit Saturday- Wednesday. Mia is doing great at school and we are all so excited to pick her up every day. We are all totally over the 30 min drive to school, but are thankful that we'll be a little closer once we move into corporate housing on Friday.

The much anticipated Amazon Family Picnic actually happened on July 31st, but I wanted to include it.

This is such a fun, family friendly event that is fun for all.

The kids looked so cute in the Amazon hats that were handed out.

I will definitely miss our neighborhood Starbucks that we could walk to,

our neighborhood park that was always full of toys to play with,

and a backyard that was perfect for digging.

The annual parade and neighborhood festivities made our neighborhood in the city feel like a small town.

These are such sweet memories with such sweet friends.

In August we also had an Olympic themed play date that I decided to do at the last minute. 

Thankfully, a lot of friends were able to attend with only a weeks notice.

We had so much fun decorating flags,

competing in our own Olympic games,

and eating a yummy lunch.

This month also included swimming,

bike riding,

water play,

and walking/biking

to dinner.

We also snuck in a trip to the zoo and got to feed the birds.

Maxwell was obsessed with the tapirs

and everyone loved the carousel.

Cheers to a great month! 

Cheers to great friends! Cheers to Seattle!
