What a gem! It is so beautiful to see this garden change in all the seasons and see the different flowers and plants. Which is why, this place was a perfect backdrop for our annual Christmas photos. I love how on the surface it seems like a small garden but you can really walk in [...]
I have never been to West Point Lighthouse until recently and immediately fell in love with the picturesque scene! Currently part of the City of Seattle Parks and Recreation Department, the West Point Lighthouse at Discovery Park is close to home, has amazing hiking trails, great views of Seattle, and of course the lighthouse itself. We [...]
Avery is an train fanatic and when I came across the Mt. Rainier Railroad & Logging Museum’s Great Pumpkin Patch Express, I knew that this was the Fall activity of the century!!! I purchased the First Class ticket so that we can all be a bit more comfortable. We boarded the mid-century 1940s Olympian Hiawatha [...]
I went glamping in Millersylvania State Park and I had the best time ever doing something completely different to what I have ever done before. I’ve always love camping and hearing about ‘glamping’ - a literal combination of the term “glamorous camping” seem like the next best thing! My friend found a coupon for Pampered [...]
All Aboard! When I found out that Thomas the Tank Engine was coming to Seattle for the Day Out With Thomas: The Steam Team Tour 2019, I immediately hopped on the wagon…errr the train! Avery’s not really a fan on Thomas per se, but he is a fan of trains! Every time he sees the [...]
Today our little boy turns 2!!! To celebrate, we visited the city’s most famous landmark: the 184 meter high, newly renovated Space Needle! One of the most unique and remarkable feature of the renovation is the sheer amount of glass! The new observation deck offer glass benches called “Skyrisers” where visitors can lean back and [...]
The Mussel Fest swung into full action on Saturday under sunny skies and mild temperatures. The popular mussel chowder tasting cost $10 a ticket and is good for chowder samples at four different Coupeville businesses! This is my second time coming to the Penn Cove MusselFest and I always leave with a happy stomach!
Since Avery is a little bit older now and becoming more curious, we figure it was time to introduce him to some fishes! As soon as we entered the aquarium, there was a HUGE window on Washington Waters tank to greet us! It was pretty crowded in that area, so we bypass it this time! [...]
I’m an adventurer and art lover. One of my favorite things to do is to pose in front of cool art, like The Black Sun sculpture in Volunteer Park in the Seattle neighborhood of Capitol Hill. The Black Sun was created in 1969 by Isamu Noguchi and is situated on the eastern edge of Volunteer [...]
It was our first year to visit the Washington State Fair together as a family! We went early Saturday morning, which was perfect! There were no lines or waiting at food stands, games, rides and even the restrooms. Our main goal was to (1) eat delicious Fair foods, (2) play games and win prizes, and [...]
Summer is the reason people live in the Northwest. They brave the grey skies and winter for the extended 14 hour days of sun in the most anticipated season of the year. I heard it often when I first moved to Seattle, "just wait for summer". I wasn't about to hold my breath until June [...]
Camping is something I believe every family should do with their kids. Weird to say cause…when I was growing up we never went camping! I don’t even think it was a thing in Guam where I spent all of my childhood days! Ever since my first camping experience almost 10 years ago – I was [...]
