Just the two of us

We were enjoying the arboretum before we got lost




Jordan has been on a cruise this past week and so it has just been me and Chelsea around here. We have been working most days but when we do have off we don't even know what to do with ourselves. We don't know many people in Seattle and we end up being together 24/7 with no money and nothing to do. Waiting that first paycheck is never fun but this is taking forever! We have been trying to find free things to do around here, we have basically done all of them. This past week we tried out the arboretum, it was pretty, one problem...it was huge and we didn't pay any attention to where we were going. We got lost, for a decent amount of time. Both of us were getting very impatient and even though its not like we were lost deep in the woods, we were seriously lost. There was no one around and we just wondered around having no idea what to do. After finally making it to the car we decided never to return to the arboretum again!

On the 4th of July, we attended a pancake breakfast for our stake, we were expecting a single adult breakfast so we could possibly meet more people, mingle a little, when we got there it was the entire stake. Basically a hundred couples with small children and about three people our age. So much for mingling....the rest of the day consisted of me and Chelsea making a picnic and taking it to a park to watch fireworks shot off from the middle of Lake Union. We were surrounded by huge parties and we felt a little ashamed only having two people at our "party". But the fireworks were awesome, shot off from a barge in the middle of the lake, from our spot we could see the other firework shows from across town as well. It was a good day, spending time with my close friend, and enjoying our freedom isn't half bad.
