Happy Father's Day!

Another boating day, er.... Father's Day, is in the books! It was a busy day celebrating the best Dada there is! First we had a nice breakfast at home with some present opening, then Scott and Evie did a quick walk through of the car show in Issaquah, and then we headed to the boat for a lazy afternoon before going to a friend's house for dinner.

Thanks, Scott, for all that you do to provide for this family and for making the girls the center of your universe! The girls each wrote a cute book about what they love about Scott and here's some gems:

From Nora:

- My dad is 90 years old and weighs 10 pounds

- My dad is really good at working with wood

- My dad is so strong, he can lift a big piece of wood

- My dad likes to eat hot sauce and drink water

- My dad always says "I am so sweet"

From Evie:

- My dad loves it when I snuggle with him

- My dad is funny when he misunderstands

- My Dad never tells me to go to bed

- My dad is the best dad because he is super funny

- He is funny when he does a funny dance

- He makes the best pasta

- He can run faster than a car

Opening presents and cards

Nora being silly. Wonder who she got that from?

Beautiful day on the boat.

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

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!
