So I have not blogged in quite sometime as so many of my friends pointed out. So I am going to travel back in time and blog about things that have happened in the last several months. Mark came home from a four and a half month deployment at the end of August. A few days after he came home we had both of our parents come and stay, for Emily's baptism. The baptism was beautiful . After the baptism we hopped on a ferry and headed over to Seattle to take in the sights. We had a delicious lunch at The Cheesecake Factory, then headed down to pikes market to watch them throw fish and to buy gorgeous flowers.
