Lady Cousins Trip 2023

By

Our first Yu-cousin trip was in June 2007 to Vancouver, and ever since then, several of us "older" cousins try to get together every few years to see one another and catch up. COVID put a damper on our trips but we rallied this year to find a time that worked for us Lady Cousins and guess what? Everyone descended here to Seattle last weekend! 

It was a really nice long weekend filled with LOTs of talking, laughing and eating. We kept the weekend super easy and low profile - we didn't have too many plans and were pretty content to make soup noodles at home and just hang out listening to music, playing mah jong and watching movies. Mostly, it was just nice to catch up and chat. I was super sad to see them all leave on Monday; it really makes me wish I had closer family in Seattle. At the same time though, it means these weekends with them are that special! 

Evie and Nora were sad they weren't able to join. Thanks to all the dads for watching the kiddos so we could do this girls trip. Next time, maybe the next generation can join!


Sunny days in Seattle are the best.

Tried the new ice cream place by Ellenos Yogurt. We got Earl Grey and Passionfruit. Yummy!

This is a nice picture of Grace!

90s Love Songs and Mahjong. YEAH!

We tried the new wine from Girl Meets Dirt. I approve!

Our delicous homemade chinese chicken noodle soup for dinner.

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!
