The photos that didn't make the cut to Instagram... Aidon fell asleep on the way to church Saturday night. He was OUT. I had to shake him awake once we arrived. He must've needed it though! Jackson wants to do everything Dad does. So when Huz bought himself a pair of running leggings to jog in, Jackson had to do the same. Except that he didn't actually own a pair of running leggings. But that didn't stop him. He just pulled out a pair of Scrooge tights and voila! Running leggings he has. I ... Read More
Dinner Date
Last week I had a dinner date with one of my best friends and we had a BLAST. We decided to try a new restaurant downtown and we were not disappointed. The photo above is of the Hazelnut Ravioli. I didn't know they could put hazelnuts in pasta...but it makes me wonder...what else could they put in pasta? Rice? Fruit? Skittles? I'm not really the adventurous type, mainly because I don't like to buy something and not like it. I'm always good with an Applebee's Happy Hour and their Beer Cheese ... Read More
I Will Always Have HiChews
This week my best friend Corianne welcomed her 2nd baby on Wednesday! ...or was it Tuesday? Anyway, I am ecstatic for her and their new little family of four. But also a little sleep deprived. It was a busy week of hospital runs and work and shuffling kids around. And there was also a wonderful memorial for Savannah's Papa, who passed away a few weeks ago. So as you can see, it's been an emotional but beautiful few days. And, alas, some details are escaping me. Simon Pierce Burton was ... Read More
Thirty-Four
It's that time of year again. When I abandon my blog and instead sit on the couch watching Housewives of *insert city here* and eating Chex Mix straight out of the pan. But I had to take a minute and share all (maybe not all) the photos from my birthday. It's one of my favorite traditions. Seattle. Hotel. Black Friday. No agenda. Lots of food. First stop of the night was The Lodge. I found this place on Yelp and knew it would be a hit. Sports Bar with rustic decor? Done. These photos don't do ... Read More
Quick Trip to Portland
Labor Day Weekend was a little out of the normal for us this year. Usually we camp over in Eastern Washington for the week and see Dave Matthews Band at The Gorge. The girls float down the Columbia River while reading books, Huz gets a massive sunburn and we end up eating more sand than anything else. But this year, the river is low due to crack in the dam (or something like that) so the county closed down our camping spot. Totes annoying. We looked for other camping spots in the area, but ...
