Family time!

By
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.

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 ...
