Charcuterie cutie

With Scott back at work now and Evie's schedule changing with hybrid learning, it's been an adjustment in trying to get a good lunch on the table at the right times. We've done lots of sandwiches and heating of leftovers. So, it surprised me when Nora tugged at my arm while I was on a call to show me the lunch she made herself. I was both proud, embarrassed and feeling guilty that she had to make her own lunch. On the one hand, look how bougie she is with her beautifully displayed charcuterie plate! And she even made it healthy with apples and nuts! And she cut the apple by herself using one of the kid chef knives we bought her! On the other hand, I feel bad that she had to make it herself. Hopefully this just means I'm raising a foodie who can cook.

the version she made Evie did not have Apples.

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.  

Alaska Cruise

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...

Skateboarding

Evie got a skateboard recently so our usual scoot and bike nights now also include her skateboarding. Here's a short video of her, Scott and Nora rolling down the street.
