Seattle...sweet Seattle!

I made it to America. YAY! I stood in line in LA just smilng knowing I was finally in America after flying for what seemed like twenty days. I was blessed with an open seat next to me on the long flight and then instead of sleeping I watched movies on the cool screen imbedded into the back of the seat in front of me. My family greeted me at the airport with signs and flowers and then asked me if I wanted my first Starbucks...let me tell you it was such a good drink...Grande Nonfat Carmel Macchiato...so beautiful.

Last night I had a coffee night thingy at my parent's house. A fair number of people showed up and it was so good to see all my friends from home. Sarah and Lucas are here and staying until Wednesday, when they'll drop me off at the airport and make the trek back to Oregon. Today we are going to Pike Place Market and Vivace Coffee in Downtown Seattle. It's an overcast day...perfect Seattle weather. The sun will surely break through later but I like the dimmed light of overcast skies for now.

When I called my friend Laura, who's wedding I'm for, she was so excited that I was in America...let alone coming to her wedding. It'll be so good to see her on Wednesday night. I'm going to go hang out with God and tell him how thankful I am for all the BEAUTIFUL people in my life. I'm so overwhelmed with thankfulness right now...I mean seriously there are just so many flippin AMAZING people in my life. Peace out!
