Zane came to visit!!!




So my brother Zane finally came to visit me after 3 years of us living here. It was about time! We had a blast!!! I remember why I like Zane, he can make me laugh and be silly and care free. He's just that kind of guy. Anyway, he brought a couple of friends with him and we, of course, showed them the sights of Seattle and had some good times!

They got to our house in the evening sometime in April and we took them to Luna Park Cafe', a very yummy restaurant that make the BEST milkshakes ever!! My fav is the chocolate peanut butter shake, mmmmm. Then we took them to the view point on West Seattle to see downtown, then to Alki beach and then back home to just hang out. The kids were excited to see Zane, especially Brooklyn because she knows she can be as silly as she wants around Uncle Zane. That night, we stayed up so late having a LAN party (for those of you who don't know, Local Area Network party, meaning we were all on our laptops finding funny things to show each other). Then Zane and I started telling some funny stories about growing up together and the laughing began and didn't stop and even when I stopped I'd start again because of his girly giggle. It was a great time.

The next morning we got Chris to skip class and we went downtown via the water taxi and went to Pike's Place, the gum wall, and the Space Needle. They all left their gum on the wall at the gum wall and then at the Space Needle they have carnival rides, Zane and Brooklyn went on a ride similar to the Dumbo ride at Disneyland and then we made them go on this frog ride and it was a little funny because it wasn't for "big" kids and Zane was pretty squished in the seat but Brooklyn really loved having Uncle Zane go on rides with her.

When we got home that afternoon, Zane and his friends went to Kurt Cobain's house on Lake Washington and then Zane went with me to watch Brooklyn at her dance class. She was super excited to have him watch her, she was being a cutie! We had dinner that night and then watched the Goonies so that Zee and his friends could prepare for their road trip the next day and see all of the sights in Oregon that were in the movie. They headed out the next morning and I just had to take a picture because all the boys got ready and didn't realize they were all wearing their camo pants and hoodies, too funny. Brooklyn tried to go with Uncle Zane and was sad to see him go buy loved that he brought her and Beckham a shirt.

Thanks for the good time Zane, can't wait to see you again!!
