family + adventures + the emerald city
{Eloise and I headed to a school friend’s birthday party at Playdate Seattle on Saturday morning. This is an indoor playspace and it was perfect for the drizzly weather we had all day on Saturday. It is so crazy that her friends are turning FIVE!}

{We ran into the Easter Bunny while out running errands Friday morning. I was surprised the girls were so eager to get this close, given their track records with Santa. Ha!}

{We had a much-needed lazy Friday morning where Eloise and I hung out in our jammies mostly, but Daphne wanted to be just in her diaper. And rain boots.}

Happy March! This last week or so has absolutely felt like spring here in the PNW, and even though I know the grey and rain and cold is coming back, it’s hard not to get giddy when the weather is just so, PERFECT!

{I headed out to Whidbey Island on Friday afternoon for a mamas only weekend trip. The beach house that we stayed in had the most incredible views!}

{A sunny morning greeted us on Saturday, so Aaron headed out to the local garden store to get compost and soil conditioner. We all spent most of the morning outside enjoying the sun and digging in the dirt. Plus, all of my spring blooms are starting – the Daphne is flowering and the tulips are starting to sprout!}
Continue reading “my weekend in pictures.”Just this past weekend we took the morning to celebrate our sweet Daphne turning TWO!
Unlike parties in the past, I purposefully kept this party (very) small. I really wanted it to be about Daphne, so we invited two (close) family friends (who have a younger sibling Daphne’s age) and family. Usually we end up with a house-full of people which is SO fun, but we often don’t get to see and actually chat with our guests. We also kept the food scene super low-key (a few snacks and cupcakes) which meant we all enjoyed the party!
Invitations from Paperless Post which you know is my favorite since I love all of the designs. Plus the guest tracking is amazing.

{We started out on Friday morning singing Daphne “Happy Birthday” and Eloise was very eager to help her open some presents. That’s what big sisters are for, right?}

{two years} TWO years?! It feels like it couldn’t possibly have been two whole years. And at the same time it feels like we have known Daphne for so much longer than two short years!
Continue reading “daphne {two years}”I never shared pictures from last weekend, so I thought I would share those this week too! We were out on Whidbey Island for the long, holiday weekend with friends and had SUCH a fun time! And thank you to Amanda for capturing so many great memories!
{Our rental house was right on the beach, so the kids spent SO much time out there exploring.}
