There are a couple of people who haven’t gotten much mention on the blog in a couple years. They are two of my college roommates: Lew + Jake.
To give you a little backstory, my senior year in college I lived in a house with 5 people, two of those people are my friends Lew + Jake. Living with guys is actually a great experience. You learn a lot about how silly and emotional girls can be. Ha (but seriously) In college, we had some wild adventures. These guys were some of my closest friends in those years and still today. Looking back, I’m surprised I made it out alive with some of our antics. I went back and dug up some old photos of our college years.
To bring this full circle, over Labor Day weekend, Kristi and I headed up to Seattle to visit Lew and Jake. They both live in the area and we all agreed to meet up for a weekend of fun and baseball.
First up, M’s game with Lew, Jake, Kristi, Corey and Jamie!
Things started to get a little wild- as per usual with this group.
Then we headed out to the bars for the night- I’ll spare you those photos. The next morning, we went to this awesome breakfast place (I’ll write a post on my review this week! Stay tuned). Kristi hasn’t really gotten to explore Seattle since moving to the Pacific NW. Lew and Jake decided that they would take us to a bunch of spots with amazing views. We called this “mission vantage point.”
Stop #1: Lew’s office
Stop #2: Kerry Park
Stop #3: Alki Beach
It was an amazing weekend with amazing friends. Not sure how I got so lucky to have such amazing people around me. Great way to end the summer of 2014.
So long summer.
Love, Rachel xo

What a great way to visit Seattle – with friends who already know you're crazy so you can have a filter free weekend where everyone is just themselves already and even if you don't go see a lot of stuff, you have an amazing time because of the company! Looks like you had fun!
