Spokane

I'm so lucky to be able to travel up to Spokane once a month with Ty while he goes to drill for the Air National Guard. Before the babies were born I would shop, shop, and shop some more on Saturdays, it was a true shopping marathon. I'd hit all the goodies in Spokane like Spokane Discount, The Classy Rack, Northtown Mall, Ross, Target, the Distribution Center, REI, Liquidation World, Picture Pages, Good Will, the BX, the Commissary, and of course eat at Pita Pit! On a good day, I could hit most of these stores and a few others if I so desired!

Now that I have the babies, I'm I can't quite make it to all of these places :( I have to pick and chose and plan around their naps, etc. So this last month I decided that instead of sitting in some parking lot bored out of my mind while they slept, I would drive around and look at the beautiful Spokane sights (even despite the tremendous gas prices!)... we drove around downtown, across the Monroe st bridge, out to Riverside State Park to see the raging water at Bowl and Pitcher, and then finished the nap off with a walk on the centennial trail, it was a gorgeous day and reminded me of the things i love about spokane. Boy do I miss working amidst the gorgeous parts of spokane!

You're gonna make me cry! I miss Spokane so much and seeing those pictures and hearing about all of the fun places you went to was like a trip down memory lane. Someday we'll end up back there and we'll have to take our kiddos on a stroller ride together to see all our favorite spots... :)

I'm heading over there tomorrow to take the baby to the doctor.
