Another weather non-event

The big bomb cyclone was billed as a historical event hitting the PNW and while I guess it was true, it hit off the coast and by the time the storm reached out, it was pretty much a non-event in my mind. We were traveling back by ferry on the day that the storm was supposed to hit so I was very nervous but I didn't need to be - the ferry was not at all crowded AND barely rocky. The waves were not anything bigger than what is typical this time of year, and that's to say you can't really feel anything on these big ferry boats. The girls did have fun standing out in the wind though, so we have some fun video of that! After we got off the boat, we grabbed tacos at a local joint that Nora looooooves and she scarfed down 4.5 tacos!

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.

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!
