iPhone Photo Dump

Here are some memories from our January!

Being sweet at the park with our friend Josua.

Emeline and her Christmas craft from Auntie Jenn.

My first attempt at a "meatza" during our Whole30.

Learning Adele is a climber....I found her like this one morning while I was putting away the laundry.

Kate brought her scarf to school one day, and this is how she was wearing it when I picked her up.

Adele learned to ride the bee!


More dress up.

Sweetness in the tub.


And chaos...

Adele learning to play in the car in the backyard.


Adele wanting to be a big girl and sit on chairs.

More climbing...

Balloon chaos and Adele's downward dog.

Backyard snacks.

A screenshot from my phone when I didn't know Siri was listening...

Hanging out with Uncle Brian.

Lollipops from a birthday party.

All tuckered out...

Wanting to show Papa their hair dos.

Kate likes to watch TV in her sunglasses and high heels.

Trying to take some self portraits to distract from the crying sick kiddos.


Adele is getting much better at walking....even when she's sick.

Kate gets ahold of the camera...

Playing around the house...

Help me put this on, Mommy!

A beautiful day at Baylands Park.  Emeline LOVED riding over these hills.

Adele in the sunshine.

Running and rolling down the hills!

Homeward bound

After almost two weeks up north, we finally had to say goodbye to family and friends and head home.  We had a few more adventures on the road...

Playing in the courtyard near Cafe Yumm in Eugene.  (One of our favorite lunch stops).



Bath time at the hotel in Ashland.






The next day we stopped at yet another familiar stop in Redding.  But for the first time we explored the Sundial Bridge.  It was a gorgeous day and we were so glad we brought the girls scooters along.  Perfect way to get out the wiggles.



For our dinner stop, we stopped at the Nut Tree.  I don't think I've stopped there since I was a kid.  There were all kinds of things for kids to do, a carousel, train ride, playground, and lots of places to eat and shop.  Another great place for the kids to burn of steam.

Adele LOVED riding the train.  She got super excited.






The carousel was fun too!


Kate didn't want to ride a moving animal, but soon regretted her choice, wishing she was on something more fun.


Emeline was all smiles of course.



And I think this was Adele's first carousel ride.

And then it was just a couple more hours to home sweet home!
