Hitchin' a ride

Today the kids and I ventured up to Snoqualmie to ride the Santa train and check out Snoqualmie Falls. So much fun, but VERY cold out. :)

My strange child, Jake

Fall is here!

Visiting Olympia

Obviously my last entry was a false start... but now that fall as officially kicked off, my camera is dusted off and back in action. :)

Back in Washington

Well, it's been a long hiatus but I think we're back. In all honesty, I haven't even taken my camera out of its bag since we left California but now that life is settling down, I hope to keep this updated for our adoring family and friends. :)

I did not take this picture of Everett... I stole it from Google images. But it will have to do until we get our own up. :)

A fun little escape

As a final hoorah before leaving Southern California, the boys and I took a quick trip to Knott's Berry Farm. Fun stuff! :) We all look a little goofy in these and I am not sure why, heh.

Hollywood!

For my 30th birthday, the boys and I met a friend of mine in Hollywood. I had never been down there before and was so excited!!! Julie Andrews - it doesn't get cooler than that! :)

And this bug was so weird I had to take its picture. What the heck is that thing?

Desperately seeking Washington...

Today I needed to get out of the house and find some negative ions (water, trees) to get me through another week in this very non-Washington place I live. So, we drove about 30 minutes to Lake Arrowhead - but not many lake pictures. Oh well. :)

On the way back down the hill, the boys and I got out and enjoyed the view.

Of course, once we got back to about 2000 ft, we realized why we had to leave the city in the first place. Ahhhh, take a deep breath kids - we live in that mess down there. Ugh. The layer of smog is a nice effect, don't you think? haha
