first snow adventure of the season!

We went for a snowy adventure today to do some sledding, make snow angels and have a snowball fight. Unfortunately, we got to the snow park pretty late so didn't have tons of time to play, but it was good enough to just get the girls comfortable with the idea of snow again. Like the beach, I think it will take Nora a few more trips before she's not scared to walk around on her own. Evie, though, was an old pro and ran off to romp in the snow and even went sledding on her own!

Ready to start a snowball fight!

This was Nora for the first 10 minutes of being outside.

It was pretty quiet and not crowded at all!

By the end of the day, Nora was just a teeny bit happier.
Getting Skittles didn't hurt either.

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!

We're not in LA anymore! We hiked the Primrose trail that follows Coal Creek.

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 ...

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.
