Wee fire in April. Fortunately it was just a short in the very old light fixture. We cut the power quickly and the fire went out, just smoke and the smell of electrical burning remained. Grateful for quick 911 responders who made sure there wasn't any damage in the attic. Most of the old lighting has since been replaced.
Ryan & Kathryn on Spring Break in Cali
Spring Dance, Kathryn and Savannah
First broken bone. 🦴🩻
Ryan was frustrated with a golf swing, bent down to pick up his baseball cap that had fallen off and punched the ground. SNAP. Simple boxers fracture, 4 weeks in a cast, 2 weeks in a splint (which he lost on the golf course as he was weaning off the splint back in to sports!) and has fully healed
Kathryn and Mira at UW Volleyball camp.
Year #3 for Kathryn, she's loved it each year.
Oh my goodness.
My baby is 18 years old.
He was so busy with his friends on his birthday, he granted me an hour - for cake and gifts. He's living a good life and excited to see him progress through his senior year in high school and beyond.
Another oh my goodness
🎈My little girl is 16 years old. 🎈

*Two hours at the Dept of Licensing for her drivers license!
*free birthday Starbucks drink (that is a $9 drink!!)
*Birthday shopping - she picked a necklace that I hope she'll love forever
*lunch at a Sushi Blue - a place she'd seen on TikTok for their famously good sushi. Legit was amazing!
*Cake to round out the day.
Camp Firwood with her friend Savannah.
6 days, no phones, they both said 10 out of 10 camp and want to go back next year.

Lots of new independence. 🚗
