Labor Day Weekend Fun

Since we had 3 whole days without any major plans over Labor Day Weekend, we each picked one family activity and one meal. It was actually a pretty fun and action packed! Can you guess what we each picked? What we ended up doing:

- Hike to Mt Fremont Tower in Rainier National Park

- Cat Cafe

- Crystal hunting/mining

- Dutch Baby

- TJ's orange chicken

- Szechuan fish in chili sause

- Banh Mi Sandwiches

If you noticed that there was actually only THREE activities listed, you have a sharp eye! Scott wanted to do a family bike ride but it was negotiated away because he tacked on a few extra miles to the hike. No worries, he still got a solo bike ride in.

Petting cats at the Neko Cat Cafe. Evie's choice!

Diving into the chilly lake to check something under the boat. No one's choice!

Crepe's! No one's choice but delicious anyway. Thanks Scott!

The crystals we found while crystal hunting. Nora's choice!

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!
