Today, Jonathan's mom and dad came out to meet us in Seattle to spend a day together. We spent most of the day at the Seattle Center for the "Taste of Seattle". We had a great day walking around in the sunshine, eating some great food, and just being together.
Now while Jonathan and I always have a randomly fun time with the Ibsen's, yesterday was especially fun. After church we all had lunch at the Green Lake Bar and Grill and then headed to her sister and brother in law's house in Stanwood to build an over 20 foot slip and slide to play on. After all the water fun, we washed the grass off and dipped in the warmish hot tub For dinner, we all had pizza at her mom's beautiful farmhouse and toasted marshmellows back down at her sister's before heading home. We had a great time meeting Luke and Janell's family as well. We love the Ibsens!
The cabin was absolutely beautiful (hardly roughing it) and the river was right in our back yard. We had such a great time re connecting, lounging, hot-tubbing, hiking, and serving eachother meals. It was a restful and fruitful retreat. I am thankful for the weekend, and so thankful that I was able to spend some time with some awesome ladies that have all made an imprint on my life. Hopfully our next time together will not be so far away.
Jonathan and I share Birthdays fairly close together. My birthday is June 7th and Jono's is May 29th This month and last has been hectic, so we haven't done much more than dinner, but this 29th birthday was a little sweeter because I shared it with him. Perhaps next year we'll do a turning 30 bash together....
