Seattle for a Day


Last Friday we realized we had a completely free weekend, just waiting for us to figure out something fun to do with it. We have been wanting to go to the EMP (Experience Music Project) museum for quite awhile, and we always love being in Seattle, so we made a plan.
We headed North right after breakfast, and got to Seattle in time to meet my sister and brother-in-law at Dick's for lunch.

After a great lunch and visit we headed over to the EMP.

We enjoyed exhibits about guitars, Jimi Hendrix, Nirvavna and Avatar.

One of our favorite exhibits was all about horror movies. (Although I did have to cover Rowan's eyes for part of that.)

They did have many great movie items, including Freddie Krugers glove, and Edward Scissorhands' scissors. And this guys from one of MY favorite scary movies, Alien.

We were treated to a beautiful sunny day while we were there, which made walking around the city even better.

Of course we had to make a return visit to see the gum wall.

Grayson came prepared, and enjoyed adding his own contribution.

While we were at Pike Place we enjoyed bags of hot, fresh cinnamon donuts.





We had such a great time! I love these kinds of days together.
