Yesterday, our friends Amy and Brandon flew up from Texas and they visited us before their big cruise up to Alaska on the Holland America cruise ship, the Noordam. (As a random aside, Matt and I once had lunch on the sister ship, the Oosterdam, while it was docked here in Seattle. Just fabulous!)We hired a sitter last night and enjoyed a scrumptious Pacific northwest style dinner at the Yarrow Bay Grill on the waterfront in Kirkland. And too bad the weather was so cold and cloudy -- we had a perfect seat for a sunset!
It was SOOO good to visit and catch up. Amy and I became friends back when we were 19 -- on a mission trip to Jamaica with our church college group. We later became pledge sisters, and the fun continued from there. Great memories! Amy was up here in seattle 3 years ago when she worked for Women of Faith. but the last time Matt and I saw them both was when we were down off the water in south Texas and we had to help board everything up for a looming hurricane before heading back to Houston. Boy that's been too long!
