Off to Seattle this morning

I found a photographer!  Niece Angela has a friend in high school who did her senior pix, and his pictures are fabulous. One thing to cross off the ever-growing list.

I have to wait until 9 am to get on the freeway, because the commuter traffic is so bad here.  If I left between 5 and 9, it would take 3 hours to get to Seattle.  If I go at 9, it should only take a little more than an hour.  Echo will stay here with family in the "Pack of Three," as we call the dogs that populate the house here in Olympia.

All I have to do is shower, throw things in a bag and get on the road again.  Today, Juli and I will visit the wedding venue and hit the party rental places for chairs, linens, dishes, flatware, champagne glasses and coffee cups.  

I wish I knew what I was doing with all this wedding stuff...I feel like an amateur thrust into the big leagues with no preparation at all.
