Pumpkins

This year we kind of put off going to the pumpkin patch with hopes that Preston would get better and able to come. This weekend, we realized we couldn't put it off anymore so Callie and I packed ourselves into the car and headed out. It ended up being a bunch of fun but we were VERY wet afterwards. Callie had the privilege of riding home in the car in just her diaper.

Hmm....which one to choose?

She wasn't too keen on the inside of the pumpkin but eventually warmed up to the idea of it.


We decided to only empty one pumpkin out with her as she decided that raw pumpkin doesn't taste too bad - not a battle I was willing to fight. So we pulled the paints out and she painted her pumpkin.

Which she loved.....there wasn't much orange left by the time she was finished.

The end product

Sun River 2018

For mid winter break, we headed up to Sun River for the week. As always, it did not disappoint! The kids had a blast spending the week with Grandma and Grandpa, all their cousins, skiing, and playing in the snow. This year we started with no snow on the ground and ended with a blizzard that made driving home very tricky. Liam stayed home with Grandma while Callie and I skied. Although it is always hard to be left behind, he loves his Grandma so much and they had an absolute blast together. I'm also realizing that she took all the pictures so I have very few with her...major bummer! We celebrated these 2 boys on this trip.  When there is this many kids, you not only take over the whole run but there it is also very difficult to figure out which way to go.... Grandpa and his gang Pretty soon we won't all fit on one couch. Unfortunately our sister/dad ski day did not go as planned. Sarah took a spill the day before and was not able to ski with us for ...

Mothers Day Weekend

We had amazing weather for Mother's Day weekend and tried to enjoy every minute of the summer. On Sunday, Callie and I ran the color run. A 5k through Seattle which involved a lot of dust and color. It was a lot of fun and  I was super proud of her and how she pushed herself. Before the race. Shirts are still white and hair is still normal color. We ran with one of Callie's good friends and her mom.  Bubbles! That was a highlight for Callie, she loved running through the bubbles.  Done! Color and dust everywhere! We spent Saturday with Katy and Dennis and explored Renton and a local beach and park. Callie and Katy The gang! Saturday was so beautiful that we actually went home and the kids ran in the sprinklers and played in the bathing suits all day.
