It's a little sad that we don't do much for Halloween aside from the general pumpkin carving and trick or treating, but it doesn't seem to bother the kids at all. They had a blast anyway! Nora carved the pumpkin for the first time (I was SO nervous while she was cutting) and then we loaded up on chicken-chili before the kids headed out for trick or treating around the neighborhood. I love that our hood isn't all that big but there's just enough houses and not enough kids so every house gives out loads of candy! Their bags were full by the time we finished our neighborhood so we called it quits and the kids spent the rest of the evening trading candy back and forth. Nora's favorite score of the night was a full size tootsie roll (it's as long as her arm!) and my favorite was one of the houses passed out adult beverages for the parents.
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.
