Kieron turns Fifteen

Posted on May 6, 2025 by Lindsey

Kieron turned fifteen this year, which means we’ll have another driver in the house soon! In just a couple months he starts driver’s ed. I’m not sure where the time is going. Our kids are growing up SO fast!

At fifteen, Kieron is nearly 6’2″, has really leaned out, is quite strong and could easily be mistaken for seventeen. Overall, he is a pretty quiet and mellow guy. He kept busy with athletics this year, and although school is not his favorite thing, Kieron is a hard worker. He enjoys swimming, cooking and baking (even made his own birthday ice cream cake) and hanging out outside with friends.

Happy birthday, Kieron Scott! We love you to the moon and back!

Kieron had a birthday sleepover. He and his friends played ping pong and video games, watched The Exorcist and roasted s’mores.

Birthday dinner request – smash burgers!

Birthday gifts – an iWatch and Ice Cube concert tickets

Opening Day

Posted on May 4, 2025 by Lindsey

We finally made it to Opening Day on Everlong this year and had a blast! In the past, Back in college, Jonathan rowed for WWU in the Windermere Cup and I watched from the Montlake Cut, and a couple times early in our marriage we went to watch together, but this was our first time viewing from the water. Our yacht club has a spot across from the log boom where we are allowed to anchor and raft up. Jonathan had to take the boat over on Wednesday and stay on it until Saturday. He picked us up in the dinghy Friday night.

Here’s Tyee. We are the boat on the left.

Did you know Seattle has the biggest boat parade in the western hemisphere? It follows the Windermere Cup on Opening Day.

Time to head back!

April

It may be April, but there is still some powder at The Summit, so Avery and Dalton went skiing/snowboarding

It’s getting real!

First fire of the season

I love this magnolia!

We stayed home for Spring break, but Layla went to her friend, Shelby’s family ranch, 9 Mile Ranch, in Eastern Washington for a few days. They had a terrific time together!

Phoebe, waiting for Jonathan to drop something… anything!

First day on Everlong this season. We had to take the Christmas lights off her!

Avery and Erika are so sweet with Layla. They’ll often hang out with her around the house.

Viva Las Vegas

Posted on April 24, 2025 by Lindsey

We really appreciate Nana and Frank staying with the kids after Easter so we could get away for a couple days in Las Vegas. It’s been a stressful couple months with Jonathan looking for a job and we needed a break to recharge, so we used miles and points to treat ourselves to a couple days in the sunshine. We hung out by the pool, walked around town, ate yummy food and went to a show.

We stayed at the Vencecian. Here’s the view from our hotel room.

We went to a show one night

Nana and Frank came up to visit for Easter this year. We had a traditional holiday morning while Avery went to church with Erika, followed by brunch with friends at Laura and Simon’s.
