Back to school

By
It's time to get back to our regularly scheduled programming! Evie went back to school and Nora moved up to Pre-K yesterday. It was a big day for both of them, and it was super cute how excited they were. Evie wanted me to walk her into her classroom but they apparently don't allow that so I only walked her to the front door of the school, while Nora gave me a big hug and kiss and then merrily waved as I walked out of her new classroom. No tear from the girls OR me! 

Afterwards, Evie declared the day was "AWESOME!" and Nora was mostly happy too. She said it was great and she didn't cry, but her voice was so bored that I couldn't really tell if she was serious or not. I'm happy to report though that today, the second day of school, she greeted me with "I had SO MUCH FUN, Mama!" 

Hope both of them keep their enthusiasm up for the rest of the year!

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.

Eating on the road

By
With all the COVID restrictions on restaurants and Scott not liking takeout service, we've gotten pretty good at planning meals for days we are out and about. We've basically taken to tailgating... a lot! It is nice though that it means having a hot meal to warm up after a day of playing in the snow and I'm not going to lie - it is also a good excuse to eat instant noodles because it is fast and easy and warming!   For overnight stays, we end up doing instant pot meals like one-pot spaghetti or chili, or easy meals like a cheese plate or sandwiches. It does save on $ so that's definitely nice but man, I can't wait to go out to restaurants again! Beef and barley soup lunch at Mt Baker. Chillin' with Chili at Crystal Mountain. Beautiful but cold picnic in Wenatchee Little girl loving her hot ramen over Blewitt Pass Jook after sledding at Crystale Springs Chicken Noodle Soup in the snow at Salmon Ridge. Pho bowls under the ferry awning at Diablo Lake.

Glass art

We picked up our finished creations from the glass blowing class we took a few weeks ago and I think they came out great! Can you tell who made which one? Nora's sunset pumpkin, May's bluebird and Evie's snow pumpkin.
