Gone to Nordies... HOLLA!

It is a pretty well-known fact among all who know me that Nordstrom's was my first true love in life. Today, I spent a few hours in heaven on earth, and it was absolutely fabulous. Walking through those glass doors into the world of things bright, sparkly, and new just makes my heart flutter and all of the problems outside disappear. The love for Nordstrom's runs deep in my family. Apparently, sometimes good taste is hereditary. My mother is responsible for the infamous Lott Family saying "Gone to Nordies, Holla!" A phrase that has stuck ever since she left the note on the kitchen table.

While I was in high school, my family decided to take a vacation to Seattle, the home of the original Nordstrom store. We dedicated an entire day to shopping there (I'm sure that is something my dad really enjoyed about this vacation...). But I have just one word for the experience - AMAZING. You think the Nordies at North Park is amazing, ohhh Seattle's is North Park on crack. For anyone who hasn't been to Seattle, don't listen to all the downers who talk about the rain. Seattle is one of the most amazing cities I have ever visited and as I discovered, has a lot more to offer than just Nordies! I had some of the most amazing seafood pasta at some little restaurant on the marina, the outdoor market was quite the experience, and tons more!
