Life With a Trip Over the Mountains

So Olga's birthday was on Wednesday and she said all she wanted to do was drive over to Wenatchee for a Sonic Cheeseburger! (This is partly where I got my obsession with Sonic, the other part was the first time I had it with Julie P) It has been a pretty rough week for her so it was a much needed break. So Olga & Jordan came and picked me up around 11 today and we took the drive over to Wenatchee!


We got to Sonic a little after 1:00pm and oh boy were we ready for the food! The first order we placed was all food and Jordan's M&M Sonic Blast. I had the Bacon Cheeseburger Toaster with fries. Olga had the #2 with fries and we also shared Onion Rings. Jordan had a cheeseburger, popcorn chicken and his ice cream. The first order was $28!!! Oh my goodness that is crazy talk! Then Jordan wanted a Cherry Coke so we ordered him the Route 44 size. This is the bag that our food came in! There were three regular to go bags inside this large shopping bag! Then after that Olga and I wanted a dessert so we both got a Cream Slush...I had Watermelon and she had Blue Coconut.

So we were very satisfied...maybe stuffed is more like it. On the drive back there were a lot of pretty trees but not really space to pull over so I stuck my hands with the camera out of the sun roof and got some pretty cool photos that way. I think they look pretty good. :)




We decided on the way back to go to Leavenworth since it was only 5 miles out of the way. Jordan was tired so he napped in the car while Olga and I walked around the shops. We saw lots of cute stuff but didn't buy anything until we got to Kris Kringl. We found a great wine shop that has the red headed wine but they didn't have one that I could buy...whatever. Then we enjoyed the hat store a lot! We didn't take a ton of photos but it was definately fun to look around! When we finally found the Christmas store we were super excited. I found a present for Randy for his bday and a Christmas present for Shawna. Then I found a sparkly hippo ornament with diamonds (not real) along his back and it was so cute and Olga got it for me for Christmas. :)

It was a long drive back since it started raining right as we were coming over Snoqualmie pass and it now gets dark at 4:30 which is when we were leaving Leavenworth. It was a very fun day and I truly enjoyed myself and the time to catch up with Olga!
