42

I turned 42 on Monday and since my birthday was on a Monday, that meant that we actually spent the ENTIRE WEEKEND celebrating my birthday. Score! :)

In actuality, I got my second COVID vaccine on Saturday which put a bit of a damper on the entire weekend because I felt pretty miserable on Sunday and Monday. But, I was still able to squeeze in a walk through the Rhodedendron gardens, some hotpot, and some sunshine. All in all, not a super exciting birthday but I'm grateful for another year around the sun with good health, and my family's good health all, so I can't really complain. 

Oh but Scott did also get me a piano, and so far, that's been pretty neat! 


Nora took this video/photo of me getting my shot!

Afterwards, we went to the Rhodendron gardens and the kids stopped long enough for me to take a picture.

My Chocolate Mousse cake!


Birthday morning presents!

Birthday lunch - Korean ramen bowl. It was a hectic day at work so I made something fast that I can slurp up between meetings.


Birthday hotpot dinner. YES!!


We had a couple of really lovely warm days (upper 70s) so Scott sat outside doing work.

While Nora insisted it was warm enough to be in a bathing suit.

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!
