My parents visit Seattle!

I was so excited when I heard my dad was going to be able to take a "chemo vaction" which means a month or two break from his treatments. I thought it was the perfect timing because it was during Seafair and My dad being a former marine loves the blue angels! So my mom and dad got to come visit for about 5 days. We were on the go constantly but it was so worth it! We even fit in some crab for my dad at pike place, got to do a run around Green Lake, dicks for lunch and lots of trophy cupcakes while they were here. I wish we lived closer it's so hard saying goodbe!




The First Day they were here we decided to watch the blue angels from the I-90 bridge. Wow it was way intense. They fly right over and Ava was freaking out at first because it was so loud! But then she kept saying "mo mo" she loved them!

The next two days we went and experienced the park. Which is super crowded. They have lots of yummy fatty foods pretty much fair food and lots of booths with freebies and handouts and you can watch the blue angels and hydroplanes from the hill.








Ava loved the "vroom vroom boats" too.
