chihuly garden & glass exhibit

i love you guys, wanna know why? because i’m typing this 30,000 feet in the air to keep my mind off that i am 30,000 feet in the air. i decided to blog while i’m flying down to texas so that i won’t freak the FUCK out. so sorry for the language but it’s necessary. i did take my happy pills and drank a strong mimosa…nope, still freaking out.
but here we go, on to the post.

a couple weekends back cale, myself & jaz took a little day adventure to downtown seattle to tour the chihuly garden & glass exhibit. i’ve heard so many wonderful things about this exhibit and seen so many beautiful weddings here, so i had to see what all the fuss was about.
i was not disappointed.

this man’s work is exquisite. every detail is so intricately done that it’s insane! every single piece is hand blown…wow!

i hope you guys enjoy his work as much as i did.

IMG_5135 i didn’t really stick around to listen to the tour leaders spiel about who these people were or why they were featured in chihuly’s museum but each and every one of them fascinated me. i am native american, part sioux and chippewa, that’s where i get my big cheek bones from.  i love how much more of the native american culture is more prominent here in seattle than in texas. you say pow wow and i’m there!
