This Saturday was beautiful, so we had to spend it outside (it would've been criminal not to!). We decided to make the drive to Mount Rainier National Park to go hiking figuring that since it's almost July the snow would be melted. Jokes on us! There was still several feet of snow in some places, and when we finally found the trailhead, we saw about a foot of trail...and then three feet of snow. Oops! We definitely felt like tourists. Rookie mistake! We were't exactly equipped to go trekking through snow, but there were several points along the way that were absolutely beautiful. The drive was definitely worth it, and we will definitely be returning once the snow really does melt.

Sunday, of course, was the US vs Portugal game, so we drove into Seattle to go to our favorite bar and meet some of our friends from LA who just moved to Seattle. Even though it wasn't the best result (in the last 10 seconds!!) we had a great time! The bar was packed and it was a really great environment to watch the game in. It was also so much fun getting to catch up with our friends Chris and Kim!

It was certainly a fun weekend! This week at work certainly was pretty busy, but it just makes me more ready for the weekend! Half marathon training has been going well, and I do my first long(er) run tomorrow. I can't believe it's almost July!
