The Weekend Lens

I'm so glad you had a wonderful weekend.

I hope you enjoyed those last two bites of dessert! Thanks for sharing what looks to have been a super weekend - and certainly you deserved one.

I love how you let Paolo order ;)

Your pictures made me miss Seattle! Grew up there. Every time I go, the flowers at Pike Place a must see!

I've never been to Seattle, but it's one of the places I have to visit in life... I don't know what it is about it, but it's always been a place I'd love to wander around. So glad you had a chance to relax and rejuvenate!

here's to fabulous weekends with friends.

It sounds like you had a wonderful, relaxing weekend with so many lovely folks! How'd you get all those scrappin'folks in the same place, at the same time? And Paolo, too, of course....he does tend to be where the action is.

I love your photos of Seattle! It's definitely my favorite city!

Yay Ali. Thanks for the photos of the hometown. I miss it. Have a great day!

I just scrapped a visit we made to Seasttle in March! Pike's Market, the skyline, etc. I loveit there!

I want to visit Seattle! :) Glad you had a wonderful weekend with friends~ it's important to take care of you too right now. And, what would we do without friends and family~ always important, but esp. so when we are facing a bump in the road of life. Been there~ you are now alone in your journey...sometimes it's so good just to know that others have been down the road and there is joy and healing and love and laughter on the other side!

So glad that you were able to have a creative getaway. I definately need to visit those restaurants in Seattle.
BTW, I just want you and everyone to know that the customer service at Designer Digitals rocks! I will be back for more and more and more.........

Such creative minds all together! Glad your trip was fun.

Seattle is definitely a favorite for me. Love the market. Love the coffee shops. Love that it's ok to leisurely stroll with a cup of coffee through the market (and buy those little cinnamon doughnuts from that old little stand).

This looks like a wonderful little journey...thank you for sharing!

Hi Ali, so glad you had a wonderful time with cherished friends,sounds like you had some well deserved time out for you, its great your getting back into your books, have you ever read the book that came out a few years ago now called THE SECRET, This book pulled me through a very difficult time of my life, its such a positive read, you might have already read it, but if not, give it a shot one day when you have time.

Ali, i feel it is important to inform you that your photo of your "dessert and coffee" looks dangerously like a martini. #5oclock somewhere! :-)

LOVE Toulouse Petit. We ate breakfast everyone morning (4) when we were in Seattle last year. Our hotel was only a block from there. YUM!
