2013: A Look Back

2013 was a great year, complete with a few big milestones for the girls.

In February they turned 5.  For the first time we had a party with just their friends, now that they are old enough to care and we can't fit all of our family plus their friends and their parents in our house and can't afford to have it elsewhere (like Kidz Bounce or someplace).




In June they graduated from preschool and in July we had a fun family vacation to Lake Coeur D'Alene and Silverwood Theme Park.  Of course, there were also multiple trips to Crescent Bar where the girls were able to hone their swimming skills.




September marked the start of a whole new era--elementary school.  They started Kindergarten!  I can remember thinking back when they were babies how far away September of 2013 seemed and now it has come and gone!



We dealt with strep throat and head lice.  Good times.


Christmas 2013


2014 should be another big year.  We will take our first trip to Disneyland and I will go back to work (or at least start looking)!  Yikes!

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
