And for the record… Gray? Grey? I can’t seem to figure it out. I could Google it (ok, I have many times, and I still forget :)). In any case…we all know what I mean 🙂
If I could say what my favorite color (or non color) is, it would be a 4 way tie between gray, sage green, black, and white! Ok…and ivory too, because I can’t play favorites very well. All in all. My favorite color is…neutral. Not sure what that says about me?
Anywho…I have been wanting to check out the East Portal Viewpoint for the longest time, and finally just went there! At first…it won’t seem like much, but just wait…just wait 🙂
And here we go again with Seattle’s kooky weather. I kid you not, it was overcast and COLD when we left the house. And then….sunny. Amen for layers 🙂
My new favorite picture of me and Maya! Her. Us. Sunflare. 🙂 Oh, and the bonus of shooting with a tripod? You get a bunch of the same image!!!!
What mom can relate? You want to put them down…and they are having no part in it.
How cool is this wall and tunnel?? 
There’s all this art inside the tunnel, which is super cool. 
Maya kept yelling inside the tunnel to hear her echo haha. When people would come out the other side, they were like “Yup, we could here her from the start of the tunnel!” 🙂 
Making shadow animals 🙂
Funny thing? I took a bunch of images here, because I didn’t know the tunnel was even there! I could have done an entire blog post of these images, but I like the other ones better. Just know. SO many cool places to take pictures here, and we only went to two! We will be going back!
Because…someone doesn’t want to share! 
How gorgeous is this view?! You can actually walk down on to the I 90 bridge. We didn’t this time, but I want to do it next time!
View of Bellevue across the water…
On me…
Jeans- GoldSign “Mayhem” (old, similar
here and
here)
Booties- Tracy Reese “Gina” (thrifted, similar
here)
On Maya…
Dress- Hanna Andersson “Oh Happy Day Dress” (thrifted, but
similar here)
Keeping it Real…
OMG, hahaha. BOTH of our faces!! She was leaning waaaaay far back and it scared the crap out of me. Of course she thought it was hilarious!! The things you get with a self timer and tripod 🙂
Because…if I’d had a smiley face on, this would have been really cute! Alas…I did not. :}
(all pictures taken with a self timer and tripod, except ones of Maya :))
I wanted to make sure I took some pictures that showed the shoes. Oddly, these shots are always some of my favorites! Maya miiiiiight have needed a bag of popcorn to stand still for these haha.
I swear I didn’t ask her to stand like this haha.
It was actually pretty cold in the shade, so we walked back to the car. Maya was like “Aaaaaah, thank you sun. You feel sooo good!” 😉
“Mommy, look! My shadow is dancing!!”
Seriously. How cute are these shoes??! So well made too!! I love that they easily went with skinny jeans, but will be perfect for the upcoming holidays! 
On me…
Sooooo, she found a Mango/Kale pouch in my purse. Of course I had to let her have it, or it would have been O.V.E.R. And…of course she spilled it down the front of her shirt AND jeans.
