We had an amazing long weekend in Seattle with my parents.
It began on Thursday night in West Seattle where we enjoyed wine on our backyard patio and a wonderful home cooked meal courtesy of Brian.
Friday we explored Alki and had breakfast at the Alki Cafe and then took the water taxi from West Seattle to the Waterfront and had Happy Hour at Anthony's.
We made our way to Key Arena to see the Seattle Storm (WNBA) take on the NY Liberty Friday night...and to see Mercedes Russell who grew up in Springfield, OR. My Dad and Rosemary have been watching her play all her life and this past spring she was drafted out of the University of Tennessee to play in the women's professional league. As a rookie, she isn't getting much playing time (she played 53 seconds on Friday night) but it was still a great game and a nice way to support her.
We had an amazing brunch at Cactus on Saturday morning and made our way to Safeco Field to see the Mariners take on the Dodgers Saturday night. It was a tough night for me. I love my Mariners, but grew up a lifelong Dodgers fan. I took a lot of grief from my family, but still decked all out in my Dodger gear! The Dodgers lost on Saturday night (still won the series 2-1), and we all had a really good time!
Sunday we headed back to Portland and my parents went back to Springfield.
Great memories this weekend!
Enjoy!
Stacy
