Cookies!

Evie's bud Hadley invited us to take a cooking class with them on Sunday, and boy did we have fun! It was an hour long class for kids 4-6 years of age and we were able to make 2 types of cookies. The ingredients were already pre-measured so it was easy for the kids to dump everything together to mix into a dough, and then roll out shapes. The Rugelach (made with apricot jam and dried cherries) was my favorite but the Chocolate Crinkle cookie was Evie's. I really liked that neither was overly sweet. I'm sad that I already lost the recipe booklet because I would totally make them again!

We have another class in Feb to make pies that we signed up for and we are already looking forward to it. I'm even thinking of taking an adult one for fun!

These girls chatted and giggled the whole time.

yummy rugelachs!

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.  

Skateboarding

Evie got a skateboard recently so our usual scoot and bike nights now also include her skateboarding. Here's a short video of her, Scott and Nora rolling down the street.

Ski weekend in Leavenworth

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 ...
