Memorial Day rest stop

We recently headed down to the cabin for Memorial Day weekend. We celebrated some amazing friends' birthdays and enjoyed some 'quiet' (as quiet as 5 kids can be) family time. The kids and I headed down early on Friday and were sure to stop at the children's museum to stretch our legs.

This was a lot of fun for Liam (and a lot of stress for me...we all ended up with paint splatters on us even with the protective clothes)

They have a little store - Callie pretended to be the girl ringing up all the groceries....

....and Liam shopped :)

Super cool branch houses/maze outside. We were sure to play the 3 little pigs out there :)

Painting the treehouse....I'm going to try not to think about how dirty that paintbrush is that he has in his mouth....

We are now a family of 4 pretty impressive bike riders.

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.

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 ...
