Activity Days, IMEA, Roadshow, and Seattle

Seattle-PikesPlace

Pike's Place Market on the Water in Seattle

Today was a HUGE busy day!  We had a bunch of things going on that took us all in multiple directions.  As part of my leadership program at work, I flew out to Seattle today the Society for Information Management (SIM) conference called SIMposium.  Part was to attend the conference, and the other part was for my leadership program graduation.  I flew out on a 9am flight and got to Seattle at around 11am.  I had a chance to walk around Seattle for the afternoon and then I met a bunch of the folks from my leadership group for dinner.

We had a wonderful dinner down at a restaurant near Pike’s Place Market on the water.  It was called Ettas and I had the Pacific Albacore Tuna.  It was some of the best Tuna I have ever tasted (http://www.tomdouglas.com/restaurants/ettas).  It was wonderful to see the members of our group again!  🙂

Back on the home front, Kirstyn had an activity days breakfast at the church that Angela and her had a great time going to.  This is the first one I have ever missed and felt bad about it.  They enjoyed eating a bunch of good food!

Brittany had her practices and performance also for the Illinois Music Educators Association (IMEA) today.  She sang in the chorus.  This is a yearly program that the top music students throughout the districts in Illinois audition and are selected for.  She had a wonderful time and I missed that as well.  Great job Brittany!

Tonight was also the stake roadshow performances for Sarah and Brittany!  They did a great job and the family (minus me, of course) really enjoyed attending!  All the wards in the stake put on their shows, and each ward had an olio that they performed.  Awards were given out to everyone.  Great job girls!
