Christmas 2017

I am very behind on this post but needless to say, Christmas was amazing! We had a great day full of snow and excitement. Its been a long time since we have seen a white Christmas like this and it did not disappoint. Christmas morning we headed over to the Knowles house and had a blast playing in the snow, opening presents, and enjoying our new games. Afterwards, we headed to the cabin to lay low and enjoy the Grahams. All in all, it was perfect family time. 

These pictures seemed to pop up in no particular order....

Gingerbread houses

The Knowles cookie day was a success! More cookies than we could ever ask for.




Christmas day with all the cousins

The kiddos had some fun in the snow at Grandma and Grandpa's house. Some lasted longer than others but they all tried at least one run on the sled (except I think Maya stuck with the snowballs)




Grandpa was not feeling 100%, so Bennett got to carry on the tradition of handing out the gifts under the tree. He added his own camo twist to it. 

Christmas morning at our house



We headed up to the cabin the day after Christmas. We had promised the kids that there would be snow there.....there wasn't so we got to spend the day driving up to the mountains. We didn't stop until we found snow.




LOVE this one!



They had fun!

Anytime is the perfect time for a cartwheel. 



Christmas with the Grahams

After Christmas, we met up with some friends at a new gym around us. Trampolines, foam pits, obstacle courses, and so much more. You'd think the kiddos died and went to heaven.
They loved this rock climbing wall. If you fell, you just landed in a giant foam pit. 

I didn't get many of Callie, she pretty much didn't stop moving.

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.
