Friday and Saturday...

were certainly eventful around here.
Friday evening while we were at a friend's BBQ
Thing One and Thing Two decided to feed some ducks on the lake.
Thing Two lost his balance and fell in.
His big brother, being of a heroic if somewhat panicky nature,
jumped in to save him.
That didn't go quite as well as he had hoped,
but it all worked out.
We returned home with two wet and mostly unclothed Things.
I left the Things at home with Mr.Logo while I went to play in Seattle.
We went to Pike Place Market where we HAD to get mini donuts.
The cute little redhead boy always get a couple extra donuts
so he gets sent in for the pick up.
From the market we went down to the waterfront.
We took the water taxi over to West Seattle,
hit Alki Point, and the bakery there,
mmmmmmmm.
Then we went back and hit the Seattle Center.
Below are my two cousins, about my height,
seated at the oversized table and chairs at the Science Center.
We HAD to stop there, it is required.
But the real point of going to the Center was
Festa Italiana!
Featuring Italian cars,
oooooooo,

and lots of fun activities like,

marionette playsand mask making!

aaaahhhhh

The big brother had to demonstrate how stylee

masks CAN be.

No trip to the Seattle Center with these kids is considered complete till they are at least a little bit wet.

I am so tired and Sunday is the Oyster Run.

Whew

Susie~ It is a motorcycle rally, details to follow. Those things are not my Things, they are belong to someone else, they are related though. There are four of them and the youngest, the 4 year old is a redhead.
It IS alot of fun, so keep hemming, baby!!

I love our fair city. I've never taken the water taxi from downtown to West Seattle, but I'm happy to see someone is. Sounds like you had a great time this weekend.

Sounds like a perfect weekend including the catastrophe.

Sar said...

And this would be why I need to get me a trip to the upper left coast. Well maybe minus the diving for ducks part. ;)

Glad you had such a fun & eventful weekend, Lady Logo.

Nessa said...
