Passover Seder

We had a fun Passover seder this year. Goggy joined us and the kids helped out with all of the preparations for the festive meal. Amelia helped make the special Passover gnocchi, while Soren took charge of breaking all of the matzoh for everyone! Everyone enjoyed the meal, though Soren focused more on finishing everything left on the Seder plate!

Young Artist

Amelia is quite the artist, and has recently been focusing her attentions on the specialized field of Fruit Loop necklaces. Soren is her biggest fan, and Amelia has been kind enough to let him help her when she inevitably decides to eat her creations

Burger

We got kid-size burgers for Soren and Amelia for dinner last week, but Soren decided his wasn't big enough and claimed Goggy's burger instead. He wasn't able to finish the whole thing, but he gave it his best shot!

Snow in Seattle

Our latest Seattle "snowstorm" only brought us an inch of snow, but Soren and Amelia certainly made the most of it!

Hiking

We took a great hike in the Redmond Preserve this weekend. Amelia blazed the trail for the rest of us, while Soren kept stopping to try out different "walking sticks" that he found along the way. The kids are already asking to go again and we can't wait for the warmer weather to return so that we can do some more hiking!

Park City

We met up with Nana, Taid and Auntie Zoe in Park City, Utah for a great vacation in February. Amelia gradually took to skiing, especially using some kids' strap-on skis that our friend Kate lent us. Both kids loved playing in the snow and Amelia perfected the art of snow drawings. We got to meet some of the local "wildlife" and had some great meals and snacks, including a fun dinner with Kate, Terrence and Soren's new friend Bergen. It was a great vacation and we'll definitely be heading back sometime soon!

Meals with Kaila, Lexi and Kristina

We've met Mickaila, Alexei and Kristina for some fun meals this winter. The kids have had a blast, especially when they've found fun stuff to put on their heads.
