Faith, Trust, and Pixie Dust: Seattle Bucket List

When we moved to Seattle in July, we tried to adopt "the one year city experience" mindset. Yes, Seattle is expensive and traffic stinks and it rains a lot. But where else can we live right next to the beautiful Puget Sound and see how breathtaking Mt Rainier can be on a sunny day? With the Olympic mountains west and the Cascade mountains east, there is no lack of a beautiful view. Even living in the city, there are plenty of green parks where I can escape and enjoy some R&R. Not to mention, we find delicious ethnic food everywhere! Over the past year we've been creating a Seattle Bucket List, and it seems like every time we cross one off, we add two more.

Unfortunately, when you live on borrowed money, it's difficult to splurge and see everything Seattle has to offer. We've explored Seattle a little, but not as much as we would like to. With one month left in Seattle (for Matt anyways) all of a sudden we're trying to squeeze in every Seattle experience possible. With Matt's first board exam on the horizon, we have even less time to experience Seattle... but I'm excited to see how much more I can squeeze in before Matt moves to Boise!
