Pre Fourth of July Fun

The kids and I headed up to Hoodsport before everyone else and on the way we hit up the zoo. The kids had a blast. It's so nice to be a bit less reliant on nap schedule - we can push Liam a bit longer and some days can even go without a nap. It had been a long time since we had gone to the zoo and the kids were so happy to be there.

Love this girl so much!

They had a lot of fun doing this slide together

Instead of crawling through the tunnel....I find my kids snuggling together...

The best picture I could get of the 2 of them together

This girl has the most infectious laugh

The next day, we headed up to staircase to get in a hike. Wasn't sure how long Liam would make it but he refused to go in the back pack and walked the entire thing. Success!

The hike was beautiful. With the kids the age they are, I feel like we actually get to enjoy the views.

They made it!

Towards the end, we had to have a bit of a dance party to motivate ourselves to keep going.

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.
