The ski season

This ski season was full of pretty good snow and a lot of days on the mountain. I always forget how much Callie loves to ski until she starts again. She loves to rip it up on the mountain!

Clara and Callie with the mountain all to themselves. 

This year we started Liam. It took a lot of bribery and a lot of patience....but he reached the goal that I was hoping for - he wants to go again next year. He had a blast although he probably had more fun playing in the snow than skiing. 

Grandpa joined us to help me encourage Liam 

On the slopes.....

Laurel and Callie also had some epic runs and loved pushing each other to try new things. 

Thanks to Grandma, I even got my own "adult" ski day with friends and family!

Liam and I headed up every Friday that we could. One of the Fridays, unfortunately we got stuck at the pass and spent a couple hours just sitting in the car. Luckily he is an easy one to entertain. 


We had some gorgeous days on the slopes this year

Thankful for this little buddy of Liam's. We could not ask for a better friend for either of them!

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.
