So Long, Seattle.

Five years ago, Matthew and I never thought that we would become so attached to Seattle.  We moved here one month after we were married into a little apartment north of the city.  We were in love with each other, and soon fell in love with the Emerald City.  We bought our first car and our first house, we made life long friends, ate many incredible meals, tasted delicious wines and beers, learned to snowboard, saw concerts that we will never forget, ran races and rode bike rides, explored some of the most amazing natural sites from sea to mountains , and best of all, welcomed a tiny little Seattlite into the world!

We are sad to be leaving our favorite city ever, but we know Madison will be great too.  Since we are soon to be headed east, we decided to show James around the city he was born in ... and of course take lots of picture of him.

Hope you enjoy!  Back to packing and the start of a new adventure.
