Pike Place Market

Last Friday my parents drove up to Redmond after work so they could spend the weekend with Ryan (and Quinn) before Ryan headed back to Purdue for his last year of graduate school. We wanted to hang out in Seattle some so we decided to go to Pike Place Market. It was a little crazy with a stroller. Next time we'll be sure and bring the Baby Bjorn. It was nice to see all of the fresh fruits, veges, fish... and of course, the water! We bought a little produce and planned to buy some salmon for dinner as well, but it turned out it was extremely overpriced ($100 for 2 pounds, I believe). We've since learned that you shouldn't buy from what mom considers "the real place". You know, where they throw the fish around? Apparently the other vendors are much more reasonable and the fish is just as fresh. Anyhow, it was a nice day. The best part was definitely dinner back at our place though because Megan went fishing and crabbing that morning and brought over fresh crab. I don't think I've ever actually eaten crab at home before. Crabbing is something I think I could get into if it means having that kind of dinner more often! As always, it was so nice to just spend time with the family.
