We are boating to Alaska! We are taking our 22 foot C-Dory cruiser from Edmonds, Washington to Juneau, Alaska this summer. Chris has a small sabbatical from work this year which makes boating there possible. We will also be staying in Juneau for a while so Chris can “work from home”. During that time we … [Read more…]
I haven’t shared a post in forever. The main reason being soon after my last post we got a surprise and found out I was pregnant. The beginning part of my pregnancy left me sick and tired and no energy to do some of the things I love, such as writing. Right after my first … [Read more…]
Chris was out of town for almost a week, and the whole time he was gone, I was sick. When he got back I’m not sure if he missed us or the boat more, so despite me not feeling great we HAD to go out on a little boat adventure. Since I wasn’t feeling great … [Read more…]
March was a busy reading month for us! Ryan had a field trip to the local library, so we got a ton of great ideas of more books to read! A lot of my library holds become available this month as well, so I was able to listen to a lot of those! A few … [Read more…]
Spring has come to Seattle! The weather is warming up, the sun is shining a lot longer and a lot more often, and we are enjoying it! (Although I still do enjoy the rainy days too!) We were able to do a lot of fun things in March (which was MUCH needed for all of … [Read more…]
There have been some really fun things going on at the school this month! First we had Heritage Night. Heritage Night is where families are encouraged to come and show off their culture to the school. There is a potluck where people are encouraged to bring in their favorite dish, or a dish that represents … [Read more…]
Chris has been looking at speakers for our media room that will be in our basement once its done. We decided to go to Best Buy to look at their selection, and for Chris to listen to a few different options. When we were at one Best Buy listening to their set up, golf was … [Read more…]
Ryan has started to play tether ball at school, and LOVES it. Chris briefly mentioned that maybe one day we could build our own tether ball pole, and Ryan has held him to it. Of course it didn’t happen as quickly as Ryan wanted, but finally we had a nice weekend, all the supplies we … [Read more…]
Another sunny day, another adventure. Chris picked Snoqualmie Falls for this outing. Another place we’ve been to plenty of times before. I typically really enjoy this location, and this hike so I was really looking forward to our outing. Its about 45 minutes from our house and I really enjoy the drive, so really it … [Read more…]
We are finally having nice weather again and we are taking a small break from working on the house, so we decided to take the bikes out and have the kids ride their bikes. As most of my decisions are made, around food, we decided to go ride bikes around Kent, so we could eat … [Read more…]
February was a weird month here! We were stuck inside most of the month thanks to the massive snow storms we kept getting, but yet the month flew by! We started the month off, out of school with snow and ended the month home with sickness (kids have colds/fevers). During the snow days we were … [Read more…]
February has been quite the month here in the Seattle area! In the month of February we would have been to school only 8 days! (And only 4 of those will be -fingers crossed because they haven’t happened it yet-full days. ) Friday the first we had no school, scheduled teacher work day?) The next … [Read more…]
Porpoise Bluff-Sharpe Park Pass-None Difficulty 2.5/5 Rating: 3/5 Beth came back for another visit! Beth hasn’t been for a visit in almost a year! (I think that’s a record for her!) She was browsing for flights to come see us, and found a … [Read more…]
This year was a weird one for us. We did a lot, and had a lot of fun, but we also had more stress than we probably have had our whole married life. The end of 2017 we were in a car wreck and Chris also was made a manager. Those two things kind of … [Read more…]
We had a great Christmas this year! (Aside from EVERYONE getting sick.) Lillian got sick first, then Ryan, then me, then Chris. It was rough, so the whole break someone was sick sometime. We didn’t want that to stop us from having a good time and getting stuff done! Chris took just over a week … [Read more…]
