Quickie Orcas trip

We took a very last minute overnight trip to Orcas Island on Sunday. Since we were last there in October with Grammie and Grandpa, Evie can't stop pretending to take a ferry boat ride to the island so she was very excited to be going back! This time around, it was a very quiet trip since it was the off season. In fact, just about all the restaurants in Eastsound were closed! Lucky for us though, the weather cooperated and we had patchy blue skies. It was still chilly out, but it was really pretty out on the water. We forgot to bring our camera so we had to make due with a few snaps from our phone.

Happy new year!!

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.

We picked up our finished creations from the glass blowing class we took a few weeks ago and I think they came out great! Can you tell who made which one? Nora's sunset pumpkin, May's bluebird and Evie's snow pumpkin.

Trick or Treat!

Halloween this year was the quietest one we've had in 13 years! This was the first one we had without the girls! Both of them went to friends houses and left Scott and I to man the door. It was very quiet at home because the doorbell rang only 4x the entire night, but at least both girls said they had a lot of fun despite it being rainy and dreary out. Thankfully, they have finally learned to not trust Seattle weather in October and chose warm(ish) costumes!
