adventures in the rain

There really isn't anything like an adventure with my family.  This last weekend was my dad's birthday and he had requested dinner out with the entire family at The Melting Pot in Seattle. Since we didn't have to meet up with everyone until 5, Robb and I decided that even though the weather said RAIN RAIN RAIN, we wanted to take the girls over to Seattle early and spend the afternoon exploring Pike's Place Market and shopping at Pacific Place. It turned out to be a wonderful adventures. The girls' favorite part was when we took them down to see the gum wall. It is so hard to believe the amount of gum that is on that wall until you see it.  I highly recommend to everyone that if you haven't experienced the gum wall, the next time you are at Pike's Place definitely go on down the alley and take a look.
