Kidless in Seattle

I was gone all weekend on a MOPS retreat weekend in Seattle- I had no internet- nor any desire really to find internet! We had tons of fun shopping, eating out and watching movies- all without kids!
The whole group of us posing in the hotel lobby before heading out on our last day of shopping! (I am the one in purple)

My girl Steph posing in front of a Hummer limo. We were on our way back to the hotel where we changed into our jammies, brewed some decaf and hunkered down with a yummy slice of Cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory and watched "Dan in Real Life" with our friend Christine. That was definitely my favorite part of the whole weekend! My second favorite part? We went to a place called Sephora that sells only beauty products and there are aestheticians wandering around helping people choose colors and products etc... they encourage sampling colors and such so I decided I wanted to find a fun new eyeshadow color. My friend Karen told me to get something that looked "sassy" so I went for it. The guy sat me down and picked out some gorgeous colors for me and then proceeded to apply them step by step- showing me exactly what he was doing the whole time. When he was done I definitely looked sassy! This picture doesn't even begin to do it justice! My eyeshadow color really highlighted my eye color. I went back to the hotel and changed into something more "fun" and fixed my hair into a flip. A mini makeover is always good- and the best part is I know how to re-create the look that he gave me!

It was tons of fun and really relaxing - but of course I missed my guys! When I got home they were at the park so I decided to meet them there. I captured some sweet pics while I was there. Hi mom! Isaac peeks around a corner to cheese for the camera...


Such a big boy already! Hmmmm....what to get into next?

My handsome men! I am so blessed!
