We spent most of the day in the hotel today, we were tired and worn out probably from walking so much yesterday. We decided to plan an easy day and so a late lunch at the Cheesecake Factory and a Movie were the ticket.

We watched “Ratatouille” and had so much fun. We thought it was just appropriate for a couple who enjoys the Food Channel so much. We took the hotel’s shuttle to the Convention Center — right across from the restaurant and movie theater. All of a sudden Seattle seems really hot! Where’s the rain Seattle is known for?

So why do we feel so tired? we headed back to the hotel right after the movies. We have a couple of full days (at least one) coming up — we’re going kayaking on Friday — so we decided to take it easy and rest some more; so some more T.V., some more sleeping and all of a sudden it was time for bed.

We heard from Erika who isn’t in the hospital like we were afraid she was. Instead she’s at home with “a backyard and a breeze calling her name“. We are going to hang out with her, Doug, and the kids (i think) — we’re excited to see them. Beth and I are so very grateful for having them be part of our wedding. Doug leading worship and Erika praying a blessing over us and introducing us for the first time as “Mr. & Mrs. Manuel Romero” — I loved that she paused for a moment before she introduced us; THE DRAMA! — Thank you both.

We have so much to thank God for. He’s given us so much joy.

Happy Honeymooning to us!
