Birthday fun

By
I went over the hill on Friday. Yep, I turned the big 4-0. It was a good day! I was originally thinking of taking a half day but it was too busy at work, but it was made (more than) bearable with flowers, tiramisu cake, champagne and some singing and dancing! Then for dinner, we went back to Montalcino, a cozy little Italian restaurant in Issaquah, where I pigged out on a delectable shellfish pasta. Then we had a German chocolate cake and opened presents at home, which was the perfect end to a great day! 

Viva Italia!

German chocolate cake and presents!

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.

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.

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!
