Girls weekend in Palm Springs

By
Last weekend I had some girl time with my HS buds down near Palm Springs and we had such a blast. It's been several years since we had some good quality time to catch up because we usually only get together for dinner over Xmas. I've known them going on 30 years now and even though we don't see each other that much anymore, we fall right back into gabbing and laughing our heads off. We worked off all the rose we drank with some pool time and a great hike scrambling up giant boulders near the place we stayed in La Quinta. We also did an escape room, which was my first time and it was super fun. We opted to go for the hardest one and we got out in time (we got hints) but technically didn't solve the puzzle all the way so I feel like we found a loophole in the game! Anyway, the weekend was a really great getaway. Big thank you to Scott and Grammie and Grandpa for watching the girls while I was away!


Dinner at the Cliffhouse in La Quinta.
No filter!

We stayed at the Legacy Villas in La Quinta and the grounds were beautiful!

We escaped!

We made it to the top!

    I was on my girls' trip with CMC friends that same weekend. Aren't trips like that the best? :)

    It was the best! It's so nice to just relax with good friends without constantly looking at the clock to get home. Can't wait to do it again!

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.

Alaska Cruise

By
We got back from our week long cruise to Alaska and ready to go again! We all had a great time but really the best part of our trip was all the family time we spent with my parents, Way and her family and Kin and his family. I think the last time we all vacationed together was back in 2015 when we all went to Kauai . It was so long ago that not all the littles had even been born yet! So yes, a big family vacay was long overdue. The kiddos loooooved spending time with their cousins, whether it was playing bingo or ping pong, or biking and hiking or just hanging out at meal time or playing mahjong. It helped that since we were all on vacation mode, we didn't push (too hard) on eating healthy or limiting screentime. It also really helped that the service on the ship was so accommodating to the kids and (pretty good) pizza, ice cream and drinks were available at all hours.  I was happy with the ship we picked too. The Quantum of the Seas is nearly 20 years old (first sailed in 2014) bu...
