Fox Hollow Farms

By
We went with our pals Ted and Tommy (and their parents Paul and Lynn) to Fox Hollow Farms this morning.  It's a small farm right here in our backyard in Issaquah and I wasn't really sure what to expect. The last time we went to Remlinger Farms, Evie was pretty intimidated by all the people and the rides. Fox Hollow, though, is a lot more rustic, charming and small. It's perfect for kids her age - it has a little petting zoo with baby animals, a pony ride, a nice river-front picnic area, a train that loops around for about 3 minutes, some playhouses and some bouncy houses. She and Ted had a great time. I was shocked that Evie went right up to the animals to pet them, she went into the bouncy house with just a little bit of prodding AND she volunteered that she wanted to do a pony ride. Our little girl is getting so brave!

LOTS of bunnies to pet.


There were baby goats, baby pigs and horses too.

Picnic lunch

Meeting "April".

The helmet kept falling off her head, but she didn't complain once!
Can you spot Evie and Daddy?

Train ride!

Happy new year!!

By
Goodness, it's already 2025! It's been a really long time since we posted!  We had a very lazy new year. We flew back from LA on the evening of the 31st so spent the last remaining hours of 2024 cozying up on the couch and then fell asleep before it even hit midnight! On New Years day, we slept in, cleaned up the house and then did a quick hike the next day. All in all, a good start to the year! Nora's new blanket hoodie. Cold and muddy trails. We're not in LA anymore! We hiked the Primrose trail that follows Coal Creek.

Ski weekend in Leavenworth

By
We had made plans many moons ago to take the MLK weekend for a short getaway to the Leavenworth area. We've been a few times in years past and it's always a fun place to visit especially in the wintertime. But this year, with COVID and all, we weren't sure whether we wanted to go but I'm super happy that we went. We had a blast and was able to keep safe by keeping to ourselves! First up, we left bright and early so that we can pack in a snowshoe/winter hike on the drive over. The last time we went , we had stopped for some snowshoeing on the way back and it was epic! Unfortunately, this time the snow was old and not nearly as soft and fluffy so while it was a nice diversion with some pretty views, it wasn't as great as we had hoped. The fun part though, was that we brought our camping stove with us so we did some tailgating in the parking lot and had a fancy ramen meal for lunch. It was super nice to warm the belly with the yummy noodles and broth! That evening, we ...
