Whidbey day trip

By

Scott has been super keen on looking at vacation properties on Whidbey Island, so we did a last minute trip the other day. It's been a long long time since we've gone and explored the island so it was pretty fun to drive around to the various neighborhoods.

The highlights:
- Penn Cove Brewery has not one, not two, but THREE taprooms on the island! I have never even heard of them before this trip! We stopped by one of them and while it was chilly/breezy out, there was lots of open space for the kids to run around. The food from the food truck was on the expensive side, but it was pretty tasty and we had some fun beers to try.
- For Ebey State Park is a neato place that we will want to go back to for sure. We've done the hike on Ebey's bluff  before and this was a different part of the park, and just as beautiful. Definitely someplace to explore some more.
- Whidbey Island Ice Cream
- Exploring DoubleBluff beach. I'm not sure why it's called this, but the girls had a ton of fun riding their driftwood boat in the little water shallows.

I love that this guy photo bombed us!

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.

Ski weekend in Leavenworth

By
We had made plans many moons ago to take the MLK weekend for a short getaway to the Leavenworth area. We've been a few times in years past and it's always a fun place to visit especially in the wintertime. But this year, with COVID and all, we weren't sure whether we wanted to go but I'm super happy that we went. We had a blast and was able to keep safe by keeping to ourselves! First up, we left bright and early so that we can pack in a snowshoe/winter hike on the drive over. The last time we went , we had stopped for some snowshoeing on the way back and it was epic! Unfortunately, this time the snow was old and not nearly as soft and fluffy so while it was a nice diversion with some pretty views, it wasn't as great as we had hoped. The fun part though, was that we brought our camping stove with us so we did some tailgating in the parking lot and had a fancy ramen meal for lunch. It was super nice to warm the belly with the yummy noodles and broth! That evening, we ...
