A-boating we will go!

We did our annual summer "boat camping" trip last weekend and I can say that it's getting SO much easier now that the girls are older. Before, we had to watch them like a hawk and they fussed about wearing a life jacket, but now they scamper all over the boat with ease and know that the life jacket is a must have. Plus, they're more brave about swimming in the lake which is always entertaining!

We got a new floatie mat and even Nora was brave enough to jump on!

How many people can you fit on the floatie mat?

We picked up some passengers on the way back!

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.

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!

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!
