Getting ready for Seattle and our travel plans

Thank you for reading my blog. Its a little bit of a ramble but like I said I'm still learning.

I guess I will start by talking a little bit about what is to come that I'm extremely excited about. In 16 days I will be traveling to Seattle, WA for the first time. With vacation there are always a lot of things that need to be done before you actually leave. Since I'm still new to the San Mateo area there are a couple things I still have not found. Like a good hair dresser that does not cost $70 + for a haircut. It's one of the things I just need to get over and do. I only get my haircut maybe twice a year. I also need to color my hair before we leave. Zoe (my dog) needs a haircut too. She won't sit still long enough for me to give her a full hair cut and I refuse to just do sections at a time. I guess the OCD part of me can't handle that. It's like if someone waxed one eyebrow and waited the next day to wax the other side. Zoe will not be going to Seattle with us. That would be too stressful for her and us. So this will be the first time Zoe will be staying with a stranger. I'm extremely anxious about it but the gentlemen has tons of references that all say wonderful things about him and how he takes care of their dogs. This is all common normal things people do before they leave on vacation, right?

Dan's sister is moving to Seattle to go to college. So his whole family is going to help her move in and we all thought this would be a great vacation opportunity. So we will be there for 8 days + 2 days for flying there and back. If anyone knows of great places in Seattle that we have to see, please leave a comment. We are hoping to see the Space Needle , Pike's Place Market, and the Seattle Underground. We want to go hiking around Mount Rainier too. I hope to post pictures of our adventure, either while we are there or when I get back.

Welcome to my blog and What I want this blog to be

Hello everyone and welcome to my first blog post. This blog will have a couple things I would like it to be. One I would like to keep kind of like a diary of things I do and enjoy doing. For example I love traveling and doing new things. I also enjoy beauty anything. I have never done anything like this before so bare with me while I learn.
