A weekend with friends

This last weekend, Jon was off on Friday and Saturday, so we decided to head to the West side of the state and visit our really good friends Bill and Brittney.  It was a nice and relaxing weekend, after we got there.  We got there right at rush hour, so it took us an hour just to get from Bellevue to Everett.  It was so crazy.  We had a wonderful dinner and just visited the first night. Their son Sean was so excited we were there.

On Saturday we had a nice morning just relaxing and sleeping in.  We were planning on going swimming at a lake right there in Everett.  However it rained off and on all morning, so we weren't sure we were going to be able to go.  We went to lunch all ready to go to the lake, when it just started to downpour.  So we went back home.  At about 4:30 The sky finally cleared up so we ran down to the lake.  It was so amazing that there was a lake with a sandy beach right in the middle of the city.  The lake was a little cold because of the rain, but it was pretty warm.  I was surprised how fast I was able to get used to it.  We had a great time.  We went home for dinner.  Because Jon had to work on Sunday, we headed back Saturday night.  We really had a hard time leaving.  We were not ready to come home.

On the way home, there was a fire that had broken out just outside of Ellensburg.  I tried to get a picture with my phone, but I just couldn't get a good one.  So I borrowed a friends picture on facebook just so you could see how big it was.
