First day of 1st grade!

By
Evie started at Sunset Elementary yesterday! She was pretty excited - she woke up bright and early and rushed to get dressed and ready for school. She normally also whines when I comb her hair and try to do something with it, but she was feeling magnanimous and let me put her hair up in a pony tail. :)

She was a bit scared walking into school because she couldn't remember where her classroom was so we walked her in. Once we got to her room though, her teacher (Ms Bland) was getting nametags out for everyone and the minute Evie got hers, she went inside and didn't even say goodbye! I had to stick my head in the classroom and shout out a "bye! Have a good day!" and she waved.

After school, we asked how it was and she said she had a great day. She couldn't tell me anything about what she learned, what they did or any of the names of the kids in her class (including the kids sitting next to her) but I guess she still had a good day....

Hugs before they part ways!

Officially a "Sockeye" now! :)

Peeking through the window of Evie's classroom. See her little pony tail?

Happy new year!!

By
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 ...

Harmonica girl

By
Evie saw Ian's video playing the harmonica so of course had to get one. She's been playing up a storm. Good thing it keeps both of the girls entertained!
