Family time!

This is an old post that was in my draft folder! It's been a few weeks but I can't resist sharing these photos.

Way, Kevin, Ian and my parents all came up for a long weekend and we made the most of it by heading directly to Orcas Island so we could show off the new house. We had an awesome time, and the house was filled with happy kid noises. We were so happy that the weather was great and we can show them all the reasons why Orcas is so great. Come back soon and visit us again, guys! Mi casa es su casa!!

Ferry ride!

Great weather meant it was warm enough to sit outside on the ferry.

It's kind of like a cruise, right?

Me and my baby
Saturday night was this little girls' birthday! 

Presents are so fun to open, even if they aren't mine! 
Pit stop before lunch on Sunday.
Some adult time sans kids at the local brewery

It took a few days, but Nora eventually warmed up again to Yee Yee!

Warm enough that this guy even sat outside to enjoy the sunset!

No Northwest trip is complete without a "hike".

At least the hike took us to a cool waterfall!

The whole family went on the hike!

Mommy! I got TWO pockets!!

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.  

Glass art

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!
