Jonathan & Lindsey's Family Blog

Silas turned lucky eleven this year. Although he will always be our “Sunny Si”, lately we’ve been seeing a bit more of “Spicy Si” – perhaps it’s because he’s getting closer to the teenage years? At eleven, Silas is full of energy, has a lot to say, and is incredibly driven and motivated. He is active in choir, Boy Scouts, is a crossing guard, plays basketball, piano, and enjoys skiing and swimming. This kid will try just about anything! He is a good friend and is such a sweet boy. We love him to pieces! Happy birthday, Silas!

Make a wish!

Jonathan and I have been thinking about and looking for a new boat for more than a year. We finally found the one for us! She’s a 1973 36′ Grand Banks Trawler, Everlong. We look forward to many adventures with the kids on Lake Washington and exploring the San Juan’s.

Yesterday we went through the Ballard Locks when I heard someone calling my name. It was my friend, Lindsay Kokich with her son and daughter. Jackson was Avery’s original best friend and we spent a lot of time together as new moms. She took these pics of us at the locks. Such a small world!

Our neighbors mat made us chuckle

We went to Lake Chelan with our friends, the Estes, for mid-winter break. The boys had a day of skiing, girls had a day of shopping. There was a lot of pool and hot tub playing and relaxing, many great meals and lots of laughs.
