This week sent Tim on another business trip far east as he was voted into the Construction and Design Council for the American Resort and Development Association in Washington D.C.
Being in D.C. over Veteran's Day was emotional and touching as Tim and Lance were surrounded by memorials, speeches, concerts and Veteran's of all ages.
The kids and I stayed warm as the temperatures dropped into the freezing state with the north eastern winds keeping things chilly. I was able to meet up with Tim in Seattle for a couple of solid nights sleep with no interruptions and much needed couple time. With no agenda, Tim and I were able to grab coffee's, walk miles around downtown and through Pike's Place and visit Quintessential Oils where Missy, Tim's baby sister, has her art work on display. This place was amazing as they had over 30 different oils and vinegars to mix, taste and create! It was just what I needed to unwind after a busy stretch of travel and walk hand in hand with My Love.
We are very grateful to my parents who willingly take the challenge of watching all three kids including the one who was supposed to be "napping" but instead was busy in Dad's bathroom with soap, mouthwash and lotion. God will use Myriam's curiosity and busy body for something big in her life!
Stay warm, bundle up and enjoy the last of fall!
