As usual, we had a great time recharging in Maui this year. We spent a week in Ka’anapali and a day in Wailea. I am waaaaayyy behind on blogging, so I’m just going to let the pictures speak for themselves! I’m sorry they are out of order. I am trying to catch up.
From baking cookies to decorating the tree, here’s us preparing for Christmas!
Here is a huge photo dump of the rest of our November shenanigans:
One of the advantages of moving back to Snoqualmie is that we are two hours closer to all of our family members. We went to Grammy & Papa’s to celebrate Thanksgiving and had a fun time together. So much to be thankful for.
We closed on our new home the week before Thanksgiving. I have to start by saying there is so much we love about Bellingham. It’s a quirky, liberal college town. We had amazing neighbors, and a big, pretty house with an even more beautiful view. We loved life on the lake. But as time wore on, we felt pretty isolated, and with four kids to ferry around, we were driving constantly — and nothing was close by or convenient. We missed walking out our front door and going on family walks or bike rides. And we missed the large, supportive community in Snoqualmie Ridge. So when by chance, a friend told us about a house on her street for sale, one thing led to another, and we decided to go for it. Here are some pics of the new house, and the days leading up to the move.
