The festivities started off on Friday night before the wedding with drinks and appetizers at Kris and Michelle's house. We got to meet a lot of their friends and family in addition to enjoying the good food and drink.
While in Seattle, we stayed at the Hyatt in Bellevue which was a beautiful hotel that has just been renovated recently. On Saturday morning we wandered around the neighborhood in spite of the rain, had a lovely breakfast, and hit the local shops (Nordstrom's of course is the most well known of the local shops!) I fell in love with a pair of boots but managed to talk myself out of buying them since they were more than I was ready to spend...
For lunch we met up with a couple of my Larson cousins Kevin and Mike (and Mike's family.) We had a wonderful lunch and spent a few hours catching up with each other.
That af
ternoon we headed out to the wedding with our friends, Brock and Sally, in the middle of a lovely Seattle rain storm. Michelle looked radiant, Seattle definitely suits her. The
ceremony was lovely and then followed by a nice dinner and dancing to a live band. We did discover how small a world it was when at the reception Ray ran into someone that he used to work with who was married to someone that I now work with. I guess that is what happens in the small world of Oracle...The following day, Ray and I allowed ourselves a big indulgence by staying in bed late, ordering room service and watching football from our comfy bed. (Fantasy football changes your view of a romantic Sunday.)
