Spring Break '16

Having kids out of school for spring break was something new to us this year, and I'm not sure we will be ones to regularly take off to do something, but this year we decided it would be nice to spend the week in Leavenworth.

Kevin worked in town the first few days, then took off Thursday and Friday to spend an extended weekend playing with us.

We spent an afternoon in Wenatchee at Pybus Market, went on daily walks down the lane to see the horses and train, rode the ATV, and did all the other usual things (dinner in town, campfires, tons of outdoor time).

Here are pictures from our week!

He slept like crap ALL WEEK.  But in our bed he slept best (relatively speaking)

We put these (toy) guns away within minutes (after both A and G pointed them at each other, us, and in their eyes and mouths).  It was just a bit disturbing.  Ha!

So focused

Cutting to the chase



We are headed back this coming Thursday (the big kids and Kevin will take the train over that evening!)  to celebrate my Dad's 70th birthday, and I can't wait to spend the weekend in one of my favorite places during it's most lovely season.

Ahhhh.

Lake Wenatchee

Happy Birthday, Kevin! We spent an awesome 4 days on Lake Wenatchee this past weekend; relaxing by the lake, (attempting) to fish, playing in the water, and enjoying quality time together as a family.  Our parents joined us on Saturday afternoon to celebrate Kevin's birthday; a wonderful day full of family, food, and the great outdoors. Weekend highlights include Fish Lake on Friday (Abigail and i will not be invited back for the next fishing adventure...we may have mangled the line more than once), a trip into Leavenworth for pizza and dancing at the gazebo, a steak feast for Kevin's birthday, and relaxing by the bonfire that evening. Here are some pictures of our trip. Friday at Fish Lake "helping" Dad with his tackle While Kevin fished, Abigail and I fed Parmesan garlic pita chips to the ducks. At one point, we had a crowd of 10! Ladies of leisure on the lake  :) This sums up our fishing experience... Thursday evening f...

20 week ultrasound

Yesterday Kevin and I went to our 20 week ultrasound.  Everything looked great and the two questions still lingering in my mind were confirmed. 1) Yes, it's a boy! 2) Nope, I'm not having twins  :) I've heard it a million times: with each pregnancy you pop a little sooner, but when I was in maternity pants at 12 weeks, I thought surely there must be two in there... Here are some pictures, if you'd like to see. During George's 20 week ultrasound Kevin admitted he'd almost fallen asleep, so I will admit: I had a hard time staying awake this time  :) But we did get to see him in 4D ultrasound which we've never done before, so that was really cool. So fun! After our appointment we went to breakfast at Salish Lodge and took my first Month of Bumps picture. (cue shrills of excitement from everyone eager to see belly pics for the next 4 months!) Before taking the picture I (lovingly) assured Kevin that yes, we would be taking...

It's Santa Time!

Kevin and I kicked it up a notch this year for our annual visit to Santa with dinner at Hamanasu followed by a night at the Hyatt! We've been waiting to make this a bigger deal (add the overnight piece) for a few years, but this was the first year we felt the kids were old enough for it - and it was sooo much fun!
