Every trip to Seattle is made complete when we have consumed large bowls of Pho and made our visit to Pike Place Market. The second best job I have ever had in my life next to what fills my days of motherhood now, was when I worked for an organic farm for one summer at Pike Place Market. I love the market best first thing in the morning. The fun part for me was to see how the market unfolds before the streets are filled with tourist.
Just say CHEESE!
Post Alley is one of my favrite Seattle streets. It's very short yet has lots of character.
What a lovely place to chat the day away on these bright table and chairs.
If my sisters and I had a Banh Mi (Vietnamese sandwich) Shop, some version of this sign would be fitting for us.
Ethan is delighted to be in front on a pig. Aidan looks so unhappy because he does not get to be first. I'm overjoyed to be captured in a photo with my babies while Kyle rights the crowd to snap this shot. I love family vacations!!!
A little smirk came from Aidan when we did a retake of just him.
Faitfully, everytime we visit Pike Place I pay a tribute to the first Starbucks on the face of this planet.
Aidan is getting the word on the money ball. It's a tennis ball with a lit on half the ball to hold money and pay change between the guys in front and behind the counters. They make a show of it for the tourist in addition to throwing sea food in the air.
Can you see Pup Pup in Ethan's hand? Yup, I was so worried the whole walk through Pike Place that he would drop Pup Pup on the dirty floor because Pup Pup was given a bath the night before. But Ethan held a good grip on his friend the entire time.
Kyle and I usually fight for the last nap pea pod. Makes my mouth water just looking at this picture.
Hot dad alert.
Is it crazy that I had to have this exact strand from Pike Place in my kitchen?
I love everything beautiful. Aidan and these gorgeous flowers from the market makes me smile ear to ear.
