{Fun} Beautiful day…

Our schedule is sort of flip flopping again & Wednesday is now our “weekend” day. Today, we took full advantage of having beautiful weather & being able to spend the day hanging out together. Coupled with needing to get Sayer some new glasses at our favorite glasses place, we spent the day in Seattle. 

One of the things that we re-discovered in Seattle with Sayer last year, was a cool park called Gasworks Park. Nearby, there is a sweet little kite shop (conveniently located) – &  they are both in the same neighborhood as the glasses shop. 

So, after picking out some fun new glasses for Sayer (more on that later), we picked out a new solar system kite, a frisbee, & some lunch – then found our way to the park for a picnic.
While the guys ran around flying the kite & throwing the frisbee. I got all shutterbugish (alternating between my iphone & camera as you see).

It was good fun. I think getting away for the day was just what I needed. I’ve been struggling with a new thread drawing image & I drew one that I may actually use, once I got home. There just might be something to this life balance thing after all. (In reference to my last post). What did you do today?

{Real Life} go fly a kite…

It may not have been super sunny here in the NW over the long weekend, but it was a good weekend to fly a kite. Chris’ father has been visiting for a few weeks from Rhode Island so Chris has been taking the weekends off, which has been really nice. We all hopped in the car on Sunday & headed to Gasworks Park in Seattle for a little kite flying. It’s a really cool park that was built on a former site of a gasification plant & the ruins are a part of the park. The view of the city is incredible & there are lots of hills to walk or ride your bike up. Sayer was more interested in rolling down them. He just rolled, & rolled….

Our schedules have been so busy lately that taking the time to hang out together & just fly a kite was a welcomed change. It was a pretty relaxing day that ended with a trip to the sushi bar. 


What did you do this long weekend (or not long weekend)?
