East Coast Visitors

As I write this blog right now some of our friends from West Virginia are getting married! Congratulations Emily and Jarrod Marozzi!! Welcome to the journey :) It is truly a blessing and we love you guys!!

Last weekend we had our very first visitors from the East Coast - Jenny and TJ. Jenny and TJ quickly became some of our closest friends when we lived in Morgantown and we were thrilled when they started talking about visiting us before we even left. They were only here three full days so we packed in as much as we could.


Day One: We rode the Ferry from Anacortes, WA to the San Juan Islands, specifically San Juan to visit Friday Harbor and Orcas for the amazing view!














A lighthouse on Orcas Island. Later, our goal was to watch the sunset over an incredible view in Moran State Park on the top of Mt. Constitution, but even driving 40 mph up a hill to 2,409 ft with 227 hairpin turns along the way and everyone in the car yelling, "DEER!" around every turn, sadly we did not make it before sundown...thus I have no pictures...










Day Two: We took them on a tour of the area including Tacoma, Olympia, Lacey, Steliacoom, and Base. This is a view of Mt. Rainier from Joint Base Lewis- McChord.














Hello Cupcake! We stopped in a local cupcake shop where Jenny and I tasted 4 of their delicious goodies.














Day Three: We saw the sights of Seattle. This of course is Pike's Place Market.














Thank you again Jenny and TJ for taking the time and spending the money to visit us! We love you both very much!!
