Summer To Do List

In the Pacific Northwest the summer is our 2-3 month piece of heaven. For 10 months we suffer through freezing rain, gray skies, and rain jackets. Then for 2 glorious months (3-4 if we get really lucky) the Northwest gods reward us with the most perfect weather you could ever imagine. Having just moved to Seattle last year Shawn and I did not fully take advantage of the summer while it was here. So this summer we have made plans to be outdoors enjoying every blissful minute of the sun while it graces us. Here is a small taste of the plans we have for our perfect summer.

Right after our 5k our friend Kyle Hicks is flying into Seattle and will be staying with us for the night until he heads up to see his family in Canada! Cannot wait to see him! He has been in Korea since last year on deployment!

After my 5k I am sooo excited to be headed to Florida to see one of my besties Andie!! Cannot wait for that fun adventure!

Next on my bucket list:

Camping in Middle fork WA.

 

Para-Gliding off of Tiger Mountain, what a view!

Kayaking the Puget Sound with Whales! We are waiting on Keith for this one!

Paddle Board the Puget Sound? Umm Why not?

We are sadly yet to see a Mariners Game, we will be there once it gets a little warmer!

This is Spray Falls one of many hikes we will be taking at Mount Rainier

Check out the incredible Olympic Peninsula when it isn't 40 or less degrees!

You can take the girl out of the country but you can't take the country out of the girl! Even Washington has a fun river to float! Headed to Snoqualmie River to float!

Although we haven't decided where a roadtrip to Cali is on our list!

I've heard Lake Tahoe is a place you have to see to understand the beauty. I guess we have no choice but to see for ourselves!

A must do is see my brother and beautiful niece Luna in Tampa. I am hoping it will be a family reunion with both my brothers and my sisters!

As you can see we cannot wait to see all the trails, beaches and mountaintop views that Washington has to offer. This summer should be another to remember! On top of all our to do we still have several friends who have promised to visit and we hope all of you can make it to see our new home!!
