My Ski Bums
We are at Alpental at Snoqualmie most weekends, so I thought it would be fun to do a little session with my girls and their skis.

Happy Halloween!!
It's my favorite holiday and I just wanted to share a few things that the girls and I have been working on this year.
Here are the girls posing with their haul at Spooner Farms.
This little lady has to be my favorite decoration by far.
The biggest pumpkin we grew had the perfect stem for our witch's nose.
More of the pumpkins from our garden -- I just love the white ones.
Our haunted house that started out as a milk carton.
Gracie is a woodland fairy this year.
And Maddie Reese is a witch this year. This was my big sewing project and my favorite part is the hat. After looking at these shots tonight, we coined a new name for her -- Dramaddie!
And even Tonka got in on the act with his Pup Daddy costume. Hope trick or treatin' was good for all of you!

Way too long!
Wow, it's been way too long since I've posted anything. I guess it's time to remedy that. Here are a few scrapbook pages I've been working on lately. From skiing at Crystal Mountain in March . . .
. . . to going to the symphony with Maddie for Mother's Day . . .
. . . and hanging out with Gramma & Papa Bear in Colorado . . .
. . . and going to Uncle Andrew's graduation in Colorado . . .
. . . to just playing in the backyard, enjoying this beautiful (HOT!) weather the last couple of days . . .

Little Storyboard in the Woods
Maddie Reese and I enjoyed a few minutes in the trees yesterday, just for fun.

Bad Habits & New Boots
What started out as a one time treat when I was at Starbucks is now turning into a bad habit. My girls are now asking for vanilla steamers every time we see a Starbucks (which in Washington is about every other block). It keeps me from hitting the drive through like I used to just to avoid the begging and pleading. Like mother like daughters.
I'm just in love with my new rain boots, which Maddie often commandeers.

Luau!
Though she won't be 5 for a couple of days, we celebrated Maddie's 5th birthday today with a happy luau in dreary January. And what luau would be complete without a sand castle and even hula lessons? Our neighbor had a video entitled "How to be a Hula Girl" and it was a hit! Also thanks to Aaron for sharing his 32nd birthday -- whatta guy. Happy birthday, my loves!
Sorry, just had to include Aaron's obligatory "insert-finger-in-nose" picture.

My Latest Project
Well, my husband was off on business for the week and of course it was time for a new project! Aaron never knows what to expect when he comes home. This time I made a window seat, pillows and a blanket. I'm so pleased with the results, and the girls and I have a new favorite spot to sit and watch the cul de sac and the TV. Tonka, however, is a bit miffed that his access to the window is blocked -- he still hasn't figured out he can get up on it yet!
