Daddy birthday weekend

By
Scott's birthday often falls over Memorial Day weekend, which, lucky for him, means we always get a long weekend of celebration time! This year, we went up to Orcas Island with Grammie and Grandpa and had a great time again. Here's some pics of what we did, but the highlights were: watching the aerial performers for the Greatest Showman theater production we got tickets to, biking around town, teaching Evie how to play monopoly and Grammie's yummy chocolate birthday cake! The drive home was terrible though - the ferry was late so even though we had reservations for the 10pm ferry, we didn't get home until 3am! Note to self that for next year, we should leave on Tuesday instead.
  
No wrapping paper so we improvised!

Rainy day = learning to play Monopoly. Evie was hooked!

Evie is loving the Fudge series. She giggles through out it.

We went to watch a theater production of The Greatest Showman, which the girls LOVED. They enjoyed the music and the acrobats, especially.

yummy yummy homemade chocolate birthday cake.

Nora crept into our bed one night. How cute are they?

Daisy chain crowns.

Lots of fun time playing outside

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.

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

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!
