It has been so long since I last posted. I pulled this up to do my first post this year and realized I had already uploaded several pictures.
This is why it is so important for me to keep up with this because I already don't remember what was happening in each picture but they sure area llcute!
Hike on the Swamp Trail just outside Issaquah
Yellow Lake ducks
Logan flying his new drone he got for Christmas, the beginning of a great hobby.
We took our very first family vacation. Logan and I realized we go on vacation with other people all the time but never take vacation just with our own family. So we booked a weekend at the Great Wolf Lodge for Grandpa Day (our very own family holiday) and had a great time! It is an indoor water park with a few restaurants, an arcade, etc. Everyone got complimentary wolf ears.
The kids had so much fun!
The arcade was fun, but I like Chuck E Cheese better. ;)
We didn't take any pictures while we were in the water but as we were leaving after the kids were changed we snagged a quick picture. We had just potty trained Tommy and he happened to poop into his water diaper and it went unnoticed to us until we got back to our room. He then proceeded to pee all over the floor there. Ugh. I have decided that vacations are vacations for the kids but are more work for the parents than if they just stayed home.
Sadly, and as usual, even though we were on vacation Logan's work contacted him and he had to work late into the evening on our special first family vacation ever. I try not to get upset at that but it always seems that whenever we take any vacation days they still manage to get him to work on something. I do wish we could disconnect from the world when we went on vacation like they used to do in the 'old days'.
Little Tommy turned 3!
I always have to work so hard to get pictures of my kids.
The kids are so good at combining robots and barbies to play with each other.
At the end of January Logan's parents came to visit.
We went on the ferry to Bainbridge Island. It was SO windy!
Thanks to Grandpa we all got donuts in Poulsbo to eat on the ferry ride home.
Grandma and Elsy playing Lottie Dolls!
I do not remember what this was for. I think Elsy made me a birthday cake or something and wanted to have a party...
Logan and I got all dressed up for the Fresh Consulting company party on Mercer Island. It was a really fun night, mostly because Logan and I got to spend time together. The power went out and we hurried to his company office in Bellevue to get some lights on stands from the studio. Not long after we got back the power came back on thankfully since they had a lot of presentations they wanted to do and had all worked so hard on. The food was great and it was fun to get to know some of the people Logan works with.
My winter buddies!
Elsy's preschool group. Some people were missing this day. We either learned about snowmen or winter clothing, I can't remember....
