Blue Wash Trail

It had been five years since we've been on this trail, but we took advantage of the beautiful weather and even though neither of them wanted to go, they ended up having a blast. I loved seeing them walk arm in arm and talk about who knows what the entire time. They are blending right into the scenery! I wasn't sure if we would find water since it had been so dry, but the "waterfall" did not disappoint. This little guy absolutely loved exploring, it made my heart so happy. It took us about two hours in total and we were all tired, but I had an amazing time, and I think they did too.

January iPhone dump

A look back at our January! 12 years ago I was pregnant with Fox, and I made some of the most amazing moms on a "First time moms of 2014 babies" facebook group. Since then, we have spent countless days together, from playdates, birthday parties, holidays, to camping and trips.

We decided to have a little reunion for some of the kids that hadn't seen each other in a while, and we went to this place called "Activate" where they got to play some games together.

They took some selfies in the room together, unknown to us moms, who got them emailed later on.  And just for fun...

We usually only decorate the inside of the house, but did the outside for the first time in years. Fox and I spent many hours in the car waiting for Finn's bus to arrive (there is an hour in between pick ups, and our house is too far away to make it worth it to drive home in between). Both of them chose rubber duck advent calendars this year. Finn got sick right before our cruise, but our friend Allison came by to sweeten their day with some early Christmas gifts. The elf returned for a few days, until the boys completely lost interest in looking for him each morning...HALLELUJAH! We spotted the giant elf on the shelf on a building in Scottsdale. Quick doctor's visit before vacation, luckily he just had a cold. Fox made rice krispie treats for the first time and did a great job. I visited Finn's school for their annual "Jingle Jog", where parents and kids join to ...
