They have a little girl, Aubrey, who is Camden's age, and a boy Jared, who is 6. The boys needless to say had a blast and made new best friends to say the least. We've never seen Camden play SOOO well with another kid. They went into our bedroom near bedtime and told me they wanted to shut the door while they played. I went in to check on them later and found them hanging out and playing, and pretending to go to sleep in the playpen.
Tayson and Jared
And here is the main reason we chose to go the weekend that we did...... None other than
BYU vs Washington Huskies football game. Brady was ECSTATIC knowing they were coming to Seattle so he bought tickets as soon as he could. Fortunately they WON, so the trip was definitely a success! Its not as enjoyable if they lose cause then I deal with a grumpy husband the rest of the day.
Tayson and Daddy hanging out at the game.
Our family at the game. They weather was hot and sunny, not usual for Seattle of course, so we hadn't brought sunscreen and left with lovely sunburns, but it was worth it, and we had great seats.
The boys picked blackberries just outside the stadium after the game. A funny story....a couple months after we moved to Oregon, we went to a farmer's market and Brady wanted to get some berries for smoothies. Blackberries were the cheapest, so we bought some. Little did we know, blackberries grow like weeds in the Northwest. They are EVERYWHERE, why would you ever want to pay money for them, when they line the streets, parks, stadiums, etc? We even have a few across the road from our apartment. We've learned our lesson.

One exhausted little boy by the time we headed back to the house after the game.
Tayson played soccer this Fall with Daddy. We signed him up through the city but turns out they don't let kids his age play games. Instead, alongside a parent, they teach them skills. It is odd to me, because what kid under 5 has the attention span to learn and practice skills and techniques? Tayson played soccer on a team a year and a half ago (it was a funny to watch, as most kids, including our son, danced on the field, gave hugs to friends, etc, rather than chase the ball, but it was still a game). Tayson was a bit disappointed when he was told he wouldn't ever play a game. The perk of the lessons was that he got to practice with daddy, who is LOVES!!! He is very much a daddy's boy when daddy is around, especially weekends. Tayson was pretty proud of his certificate at the end, but also proceeded to tell us that he wants to play soccer games next time he plays soccer, not just practice. Camden had fun running all around kicking a soccer ball too, though he wasn't signed up for the class. Camden could kick a soccer ball all day if you let him. I'm curious to see what he does when he gets old enough to play the game.

Pike's Fish Market in Seattle, also ended up being the biggest BYU tourist location on Friday afternoon. We saw SOOOO many BYU fans. Maybe it had something to do with the weekend?
Boys checking out the lobster tails, yum!
Space Needle
A fountain near the space needle that Tayson had a ball running through. Everyone was just hanging out around the fountain watching it, and then suddenly there was a four year old running through it over and over again. He even convinced daddy to run through it too, and got Camden to near the end. He had a blast, but needless to say he was SOAKED!!! Fortunately the weather was Beautiful in Seattle while we were there, so the water felt good.
We were fortunate that Brady's cousin, Sally, and her family invited us to stay with them and we had a blast. They were so generous and kind. Thank you again guys!
