The first weekend we were here we went to a church nearby. We wanted to find to find a church to attend to aid our spiritual growth and we also hoped to meet people. On our first visit, I was surprised to see the beautiful, historic sanctuary less than half full, and I didn't see many young people. It made me better understand what people mean when they call Texas part of the Bible-belt. But anyway, it just so happens that there's a couple that attends the church that graduated from SMU a few years ago, kind of unexpected to meet people from Texas so far away. Anyway, they invited us out to dinner, so we went out last night to a sort of hip noodle place. It was a nice dinner, we had a lot in common, we came to Seattle for a lot of the same reasons, and we had a lot to talk about; they've only been living in Seattle for a few months longer than us but they gave us some suggestions on restaurants and things to do. Anyway, it's kind of cool to have met people so soon after arriving, I'm looking forward to meeting more people and having more social events.
We moved to Seattle in February 2008 and shared blog posts and photos during our first few years in Seattle.
