3 Days


Oops, I slacked off a bit.  But I'm back.  We had a fun day Saturday before last (the 11th).  We needed to go up to Lynnwood (about 45 minutes away) to pick my ring up at Shane Co (I took it in for the annual inspection/cleaning, etc.), so while we were up there we had lunch and did some shopping, and the girls each got a new piercing.  Olivia got her nose pierced and Kayley did her helix.  Not a fan myself, but not the hill I want to die on.  Family outings like that have become increasingly rare so it was nice.

Then, this last Saturday, the 18th, Paul and I met my Dad, stepmom, both brothers and their wives in Everett for dinner to celebrate my stepmom's 80th birthday.  That was so much fun.  We went to a restaurant on the water with a nice view and had a delicious seafood dinner, and it was so fun to see them all at the same time because usually it's the entire family or just a few at any given time.

Sunday the four of us took Paul's mom out to Olive Garden for HER birthday, which was actually Saturday, whereas my stepmom's was actually Sunday but it just worked out that we had to swap days.  So it was a busy weekend but fun.  Now the girls are on Christmas break but Olivia is sick.  Paul was going to take them to Crescent Bar Moday and then skiing today at Mission Ridge but couldn't because of y  her being sick.  So much for me having a nice quite house for a day and a half, especially since I'm still working this week.  Oh well.

Anyway, only 1 more working day.  4 working days until the end of the year (I'm taking the 30th off)!
 
I've been wrapping like crazy the last few days and now I just have one gift left to wrap.  Yay.

This picture of Maisy has nothing to do with anything but it's funny because of the way the cat tree is obviously not engineered for a cat of her size.

Transfer Anniversary

Today is the 5-year anniversary of my embryo transfer!  5 years ago today I became pregnant with my girls (I wrote about it in more detail a few years ago).  It was a Saturday that year, also. Olivia and Kayley at 3 days post conception (wish I knew which one was which): And Olivia and Kayley 5 years later: That photo is actually a few weeks old.  I tried to take one for today and this is what I ended up with: {Sigh}

First Snow of 2025

Yesterday it snowed for the first time this year.  I love when it snows when I don't have to go anywhere and can just stay home and admire it.  It snowed more today, and we took Kona out for a walk in the woods.  So pretty.

Senior Prom

Last Friday was the girls' Senior Prom.  A whole group of them met at a nearby park for photos, then they broke off into smaller groups and went to dinner and Prom.  Olivia and her group rented an Air B&B for the night, and Kayley spent the night at a friend's house with another friend or two. Olivia and Gavin (just friends) Everyone Just the guys Just the girls Olivia and Kayley
