Mom & Coco Come to Visit

There's something wonderful about having familiar faces around. Mom came to visit for five days just recently, and brought along their French foreign exchange student, Coco. as a big Grey's Anatomy fan back in France, seeing the Space Needle (and Seattle in general) was on his bucket list.

We had a great time catching up with Mom, and getting to know Coco. My only complaints are that it went too fast, and they brought the sunshine home with them (although it has been back today and is supposed to be tomorrow).  We seriously could not have had better weather while they were here. We packed lots in to a short amount of time:

• Ruby Beach
• Rialto Beach
• Pike Place Market
• Kerry Park
• Space Needle
• Mukilteo Lighthouse Park
• Explored Snohomish
• Watched "The One Where Joey Learns French" friends episode (even funnier than normal to watch with someone from France) and Better off Dead
• Watched the oh-so-painful Vikings vs Packers game
• Tried some macarons from the French bakery near Pike Place (Thanks, Coco! They were delicious)!

Now we start counting down the days until our trip to Minnesota next month, and Bree & Kyle's trip to Washington in January!
