Happy birthday to me!

By
I rung in my 41st birthday with a nice, low-key day! While our original plan of having breakfast in Hawaii (where we should have been this week for spring break) didn't pan out, it still was a great day. I was able to keep work at a minimum, spent a lot of quality time hanging with the girls and Scott and ate some delicious food. Really, all that matters is that we are all healthy and happy and together. I wish for this to continue for many many more years to come!  


Birthday breakfast surprise

We taught the girls to play Carcassone
Going on a hike on a trail near our house. Since Cougar Mountain is basically in our backyard, we have lots of trails to choose from. We probably did about 2.5 miles in and back (5 miles total)

Practicing using masks. 

The trail follows Coal Creek so there were lots of bridges crossing the water.
More bridges


Took a while to get her to smile naturally

No cake for dessert but we had strawberries and chocolate! (and sparkly rose!)

This girl looooooves chocolate!

    Happy birthday! I'm SUPER sad we didn't get to spend it together in Hawaii. :( Hopefully next year! But I'm glad you still had a fun day.

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.

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!

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!
