Fall in Seattle

I'm so excited to be back in the Pacific Northwest! One of the things that I had missed were the seasons. I love waking up, bundling up and taking Dena (our dog) for walk in the still dark mornings. It's so peaceful in Magnolia at 5:45am - the only things be-bopping around are the ever few dog walkers and the many raccoons that seem to always cross our path. Yesterday morning, Dena and I came across a wooden Winnie the Pooh and Piglet Halloween fixture - these are the moments that I wish I had my own reality TV crew following me around. She stopped dead in her tracks, hair sticking straight up, staring intensely at Pooh and Piglet. It seriously took at least 5 minutes to get her moving again, but we first had to walk slowwwwwly up to the wooden fixture and make sure it was harmless. Oh, my life.

Today, I'm looking out from my office window at the fog that is surrounding DT Bellevue. However, I'm on the 26th floor and can see the sunshine and mountain tops coming in hot! It's going to be such a beautiful fall day!
