Blessings this Week and Last Week and Next Week

I'm behind, I know! I just haven't been in the mood to edit or sit behind my computer at all. My laptop is a totally different story. So because I missed last week and I'll be in Montana next week, I thought I would do a big monster post to hold you over.

Introducing Wailana Ripka. She is making her first "real" apperance on my blog. She's been on it before, but we could never see her. Wailana is only 10 weeks old, but she is super alert and always wanting to look around. tacoma, wa 2008



This past weekend we laid my auntie to rest as the Hawaiian flag flew above and the fountain burst with water. tacoma, wa 2008





I tried new food down in Chinatown. Homemade shaved noodles that have something added to them to make them green. I also tried dumplings, although I think that I probably have had them before. seattle, wa 2008





In looking through the Seattle Weekly a friend found Artopia. An art festival held in Georgetown. This area of town is not so nice, being old with lots of rundown buildings, so I was a little scared, but with all the interesting art it made it somewhat okay. georgtown, wa 2008






This picture was supposed to be of the girl, but the man walked right through the shot, oh well it still turned out pretty cool.

I'm super excited to try this bar and eatery, maybe it will make me smarter or maybe it's just to make my pants smarter. gerogetown, wa 2008
