Abbie Day Parade!


(otherwise known as the Greenwood Seafair Parade....)

Last night we headed over to 85th and Greenwood to join our neighbors in celebrating the Season of Seafair (yes, it is a season!)

We've never seen the neighborhood this busting, so it was fun to get out for the evening and enjoy the festivities.

Not much to report in the way of parade going, but it was Kevin's first time at a Seafair parade, and he may or may not have been bored stiff...


I on the other hand took 124 pictures (yep- that's an exact total) and reminisced on the years growing up watching the Torchlight Parade.... the Seafair Clowns throwing candy and spraying water, Pirates chasing kids down the street; you know, all the stuff Seattle kid's dreams are made of!

Abigail received this button from one of the clowns.  He said it was for "the future of Seafair"  awwh...

We got to see the Clowns, but skipped the Pirates.  Kevin says it gives him something to look forward to next year....time will tell  ;)

The motorcycle Drill Team.  
I use to go NUTS over this junk!

The CLOWNS!!




We decided that hence forth, The Greenwood Seafair Parade will be known as the Abbie (day-where-she-never-showed-up) Day Parade!

That's all for now (needless to say I'm not in labor...), so I'm off to enjoy this beautiful weather.

Have a great day!

Here are some pictures, if you'd like to see. During George's 20 week ultrasound Kevin admitted he'd almost fallen asleep, so I will admit: I had a hard time staying awake this time  :) But we did get to see him in 4D ultrasound which we've never done before, so that was really cool. So fun! After our appointment we went to breakfast at Salish Lodge and took my first Month of Bumps picture. (cue shrills of excitement from everyone eager to see belly pics for the next 4 months!) Before taking the picture I (lovingly) assured Kevin that yes, we would be taking...

A Suburban NYE

We partied hard with neighbors for New Year's Eve this year, and it was perfect - no need to dress up, tackle crowds, or spend big bucks - add to that great friends who are also neighbors, and it's a win/win.
