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?

    Yay, Evie! It's a big transition to go to a new school. Glad she had a great first day!

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.

Little hands

By
Evie made me a cute little jewelry tray for Mothers Day back in kindergarten and I've been using it to put little knicknacks like hair ties. I don't know what material it was made out of but it's been slowly crumbling away until Scott finally got fed up with the mess and threw it in the trash. Before he did though, we took a photo of her old hand compared to now. Look how little she used to be! sniff sniff.

Trick or Treat!

By
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!
