hello my name is bloody mary....

flowers mark brought home for me, they look like a sunny breezy day i want to live in this photo, especially right now

headache with a pop o matic bubble circa 1982 was the friday night game this week!!

"remember that time i only ate boxes of tangerines" that happens here! we are on our 3rd box of cuties in a month, "so sweet and juicy"

 So the reason i have neglected my new blogging endeavor is that 5 of my family members were just here for a week, it was their first Seattle experience(except for you Mikey) we had a lovely time, I was so sad to see them go! Here are a few highlights of our time together, mostly @ the ocean house....

westport was rockin, believe it or not

 

a nod to my little sister michelle, who was busy with her clinicals so she could not join us, we did miss her!!

my brother and fine husband caught 30 razor clams on the beach...im not sure caught is the appropriate terminology, the clam chowder they made was pretty amazing!!  here they are with gramps cleaning the beasts

drift wood fort complete with fire spit roasting a variety of drift wood meat, it was a tiny gem

taking a break from a hard day on the beach
