Today's theme is "Red". I went ahead and posted my favorite red photos. I discovered something interesting about all these photos as I was scanning them. They all are taken from my time living in Seattle. There must be something about red on a gray background. 
Poinsettia tree at a nursery in Woodinville, WA .
Umbrella's at Westlake Center in downtown Seattle.
A SBC coffee shop outside one of my bus stops.
This one my dh liked because it's Redhook Beer in a Red brick building. This is the original Redbook Brewery, one of the original microbrews, in Freemont, WA (which is the center of the universe you know. They have a sign to prove it
This is the old Trolleyman Tavern, really neat building.
The next set of pictures are for those of you w/ winter weather beating down your door. Just a reminder that spring is not too far off!
My flicker account is just about full this month for downloads. So next weeks entry, annoying, may just be a blank page ~ how annoying!

While I love all the photos, I'm particularly drawn to the coffee shop one! I'm imaginning the delight of visiting with you while lingering over a steaming hazelnut latte!
And thanks for the hope of spring! While it's supposed to warm up to the 30's over the coming days, it was only 7 degrees on my walk on Wednesday morning. Those fields of tulips were a welcome sight ~ thanks!
Have a super weekend, friend!
Nikki,
Yes, that would be fun to sit down to a warm cup of coffee with you. :) The umbrella's at Westlake center are also from Seattles Best Coffee. This time of year they (at least when I lived there) decorated the whole area in holiday greenery w/ big red bows and twinkle lights all over. There was also horse drawn carriage rides available. They would also have a steel drum band playing Christmas carols outside the stores which just added to the fun festive mood. The whole place was just beautiful and fun to visit at Christmas time. I don't know what it's like now but 10 years ago it was magical. Let's meet there! :-)
I would say my first vote is the tulips- I LOVE tulips!!! My second vote would be the umbrellas- but having said that- I loved them all. :-) Your pictures made me want to visit Seattle! I've always wanted to visit Seattle but never had an opportunity. That poinsetta plant is huge too!
I am not sure I knew you lived in WA... maybe I already knew that, but forgot.
I live in Allyn, WA.
I like the red umbrella photo!!!
All of your photos were great...but coffee lover that I am....my vote goes with the Coffee Shop photo.
I have to tell you.....I LOVED your video! What a beautiful family you have! It seems you have 3 girls and one boy. My son has the opposite...lol 3 boys and then they finally got their girl, Emma, who's now 3 yr. old.
Happy Holidays to you and thanks for stopping by my blog. With these beautiful children, I can see your Christmas will be extra special!
Thanks so much for coming by and visiting my PSH and leaving a comment. You have made a this difficult with so many nice red pictures. I'd have to say that my favorite, though. is the last one. I really like that field of tulips! :) Great job!
Great selection of red photos! Love the tulips!!
Thanks for stopping by the "Garden!"
We spent the day in Seattle today and I was thinking of THESE photos while I was there!
