Seattle

For those of you who didn't know, we went to Seattle, WA earlier this month for a funeral, Henry's sister Becky passed away suddenly. We left late on Tuesday March 3rd and came home late Friday March 6th.

It was a quick trip and not under the best conditions but we had a good time. It was my first time to Seattle.

We flew into Seattle and stayed by the airport the first night. Then Wed. we picked up Henry's mom and step-dad from the airport (Faye and Bevan), and drove down and over to Bremerton/Silver Dale where Becky lived. We met with family and just hung out. It was cloudy and raining most of the trip.

Thurs. was the service. It was good. Becky's daughter's did a great job putting it together. The church stepped in and helped and provided a lunch even though they were not active. The church is awesome in that respect, always willing to help others out! After the service, we went to a beach about 20 min. from their house, Scenic Beach. It is where Becky's ashes are going to be scattered. It was beautiful! The family had seen a sub in the water a few weeks earlier there. That would of been awesome. But Kyle really wanted to see a killer whale. He didn't get his chance on this trip, but he did at Sea World.

Fri. we took the ferry from Bremerton to Seattle. We went to Pike Fish Market and then took Faye and Bevan to the airport. After we just drove around Seattle for a few hours and had lunch then we went to the airport.

Following are pictures from our trip.
