Seattle to Texas and a Birthday

It's been nearly a month since I blogged, but I have a good excuse...like moving across the country. So enjoy the catch-up post of a million pictures...my dear friend Linda came to visit Seattle before I left and she took some amazing photos of the Seattle sites...

Smith Hall at the UW--I had a class here and the building you can barely see to the left is Miller Hall where the rest of my classes were. I miss this beautiful campus.

Suzzallo Library--truly amazing

Qwest & Safeco, homes of the Seahawks & Mariners

Sanitary Public Market--seriously

Ah, Pike Place--best public market anywhere

View of Elliott Bay & Puget Sound from Pike Place back entrance

View of downtown from top of the Space Needle

View of the Space Needle from the bottom of the Space Needle :)

Before leaving Seattle, I spent time with some near & dear people...

Jesse & me

He's a silly one...

Or maybe he's not so silly (and that's his hand...I do not have man hands)...

Chris & me...perhaps our only pic together in Seattle

Val & me...did some of you doubt I really had a roommate? :) I dragged her out of studying and to lunch with me before I left.

Back in Texas...

Uyen, me, Marcy & Tony

Love this pic of Uyen laughing (with Tony)

Taking pics w/Shayne is so fun, esp when you borrow Cookie's hat to wear!

Shayne & Bella

Margarita & Kelsey

Seriously--loved Cookie's hat

Pretty sure Shayne & I are dancing to "Promiscuous" here...

COOKIE!

Alisha & me

Abby & me--it's blurry, but I wanted a pic of Abby on here so deal w/it

Gathering of the gals for my 30th...L-R Marcy, Uyen (& Tony), Lindsay, Margarita, Abby, Kelsey, Alisha, Shayne (& Bella), Cookie, me
