Spring time girls
















We were in Seattle for Easter, so we took the girls out a few days before to get pictures in their spring dresses. Kaitlin got the new buggy at a twins sale and has had more fun pushing her babies and carebears around ever since.

More Seattle


The Museum of flight museum. Sitting in some manner of fighter plane.






The Piroshky in Pike's market were out of this world. We also found amazing cabbage rolls, barszcz, pelmini, and all sorts of other food that we shared in common on our missions. We ate well!

The Emerald City
















After nearly a year of interviews, tests, physical training (the list goes on and on) Michael was invited to Seattle for the final phase of interviewing with the FBI. Given the coolness of the city, and the chance to get away kidless for a long weekend, we decided to make it an "us" trip and a very much needed getaway. It was wonderful. Even though the weather was rainy and incredibly windy for most of the weekend, we had a really fun time. Couple of highlights.
My lasting impression of Seattle is this: extremely hilly (rivals San Francisco for that any day), very friendly and smiley people, even downtown, out of this world food (the seafood, Russian/Polish food, sourdough bread, and Thai food are still fresh in my mind:).
