Seattle... and a half marathon!

Yesterday morning on a whim I decided to check airfare to Seattle for the weekend that my good friend Amy is running a half marathon.  I checked before once and the prices were SKY high (literally haha). They were almost $500... which is outrageous, and definitely not in our budget.  However, yesterday it was $250... GASP.  I waited til Gaetan was up and then we talked about it and i was hoping that the tickets were still that price.  Usually what happens is I find a good deal on tickets but by the time I get around to getting them (like an hour later) they've already doubled... but not this time!

I am going to be able to visit my super good friend Amy March 24-26 and on the 25th we're going to be running the half marathon around Mercer Island.  I am SO excited.  I am so happy that I get to visit with Amy and to be able to support her in this race.  I'm glad that I will get a half under my belt before the full on May.  :) God is good... He knew what I needed and provided it so quickly.  It was funny because I got a Jones Soda the other day and under the lid it said that I would be flying somewhere soon!  :)
