Saturday Aug 18 Chris and I were given tickets to the Seattle Sounders soccer game! This was his second and my first time at one of the games! Sounders won 2-0 and we had an incredible time! The fans were so loud and lively!!
The following Monday night we met a couple from the church at the AquaSox game. The AquaSox are like the minor league team in the area. Chris caught a free Tshirt that was thrown into the crowd! We definately plan on attending more of these games!
The rest of these pictures are slightly out of order, however, they are all from Chris' mom's visit this past week. She was with us from last Tuesday until yesterday and we had such a great time!
This is Chris at the top of Heather Lake. I skipped out on this hike but he and his mom loved it! This is the same hike we posted pictures of from our 1 year anniversary back in April. All the snow is melted now! Beautiful scenery!
Chris and I on Sunday morning right before service started!
Chris preaching through 2 Peter with the High school and Jr high students!
These next two are from another hike down to the beach! This hike was the day after we returned from Ocras Island in the San Juans. More on that later...
These next five are pictures of the view from the top of Mt Constitution which is the highest point on Ocras Island. We made the journey to this point our second day on the island right after whale watching!
Here you can see Mt Rainier in the distance!
The next 9 pictures are all things we saw from the boat while whale watching! During our trip we encountered a Minkie whale that swam up about 5 feet from the boat. We were able to see his entire body swimming under water! Beautiful! The naturalist on board said she has not been that close to a minkie whale in her 16 years of work!
Dinner at the resort after a very full day!
Our first day on Ocras Island we went to Moran state park and hiked roughly 4 miles to the falls!
This dear was at our resort and let me walk right up to it, feed it, and pet it!
The next few are other pictures from our time on the island
The next pictures are some of Chris in action at the wednesday night groups. Highschool and middle school kiddos meet at two different parks in the area and we were making the rounds!
Of course we had to throw some pictures of our sweet kitten Lewis in the mix!
The Manor is what we call the highshool room. This is where we have the pleasure of worshiping with and discipling kids!
Chris' office
The rest of these pictures are the highlight! On Monday we headed over to Mt Rainer national park and spent the day hiking! We hiked roughly 8 miles and made it to almost 8000 feet! The views were incredible!
This was the best view we got of the peak of Mt Rainier because the fog was so thing around the top of the mountain.
I was slightly obessed with all the tiny christmas trees
Another view of the peak
