Holiday Season 2025 recap in photos

2025 brought another full, busy, beautiful and fun holiday season filled with many of our favorite traditions and wonderful times together.  And it also brought a little bit of stress with horrible flooding, Nana recovering from knee surgery, etc.  It certainly was a memorable year!  Here were some of the highlights:

Thanksgiving

One of my most favorite photos of these two ever!

Vancouver

We loved our winter break trip to Vancouver, BC a couple years ago so much that we decided to do it again!  We did a lot of the same stuff as the last trip with also a couple new activities and a new place to stay--the Fairmont!  It was a great little getaway--such a fun city!
















And that's a wrap 2025!  Thanks for being a pretty good year!


Ready for 2026!!

Holiday Season 2024 recap in photos


It's that time of year for the annual recap of the holiday season via photos!  After a tough fall, it was so nice to move into the joy of the holiday season, spend time as a family doing our favorite traditions, and getting some downtime over winter break. And I'm so grateful the boys still love all the traditions. 

So without further ado, here are our favorite memories from this past holiday season:

Wild Lanterns at the Zoo with cousins

Snoqualmie Christmas Tree Lighting - SES Choir Concert

Cameron sang in the Snoqualmie Tree Lighting ceremony presentation with the SES Choir!

Bainbridge Island Christmas Shopping

James and I had our annual shopping day on Bainbridge Island which is always such a treat for us.  Then we went to the Met for dinner and ate at the bar and then finished up our shopping in Bellevue. It's such a fun date day, but sadly we didn't take any photos.

Quality time with Faders

Our dear friends the Faders were in town to celebrate Christmas with family and we got to spend a nice evening with them.

Winter Break

Winter break was filled with puzzling, Lego building, skiing, watching movies, sleepovers, Ollie snuggling and I got to get together with some girlfriends which was fun. Overall we started 2025 feeling refreshed and cups filled with love and family.
