Headed home

This might be the cutest and most ideal way to spend the five hour drive home. While due to extenuating circumstances we didn't get out as much as we had hoped, the Methow Valley is absolutely a beautiful place to be. Can't wait to return!

The men of the Methow Valley

It's a beautiful day here in the methow valley and the snow is such a treat. A long drive to get here but oh so worth it. Hopefully more snowshoeing before we leave tomorrow.

Well, it's been awhile

Before jumping into the new year - here's a collection of highlights from last month and the end of a pretty busy, fun and wonderful year. Let's hope 2010 brings plenty more adventures, good health and time to share with family and friends.

As for our holiday season - it was rather fantastic. While we missed not getting to see family and friends as we typically do during the holidays in Oregon, it was so nice to stay close to home and just enjoy our little family of three. In between walks, good food and other celebrations, Macadam loved it. He wasn't sure what to do when the tree was gone but loves his new little play area as he loves, loves, loves to sit at tables.

Merry Christmas!

For the first time in more than seven years, Rob and I are at home for Christmas (no driving!) and loving every minute as we enjoy Macadam soaking up all the love and fun the holidays have to offer. We hope you all are safe, warm and enjoying those you love!

First snowshoeing trip

While Macadam slept for most of the trek, he had a blast in the snow and the lodge. It was so much fun to see him toddle about. Very much like Randy from the Christmas story or the michelin man.

Backtrack part 1: Thanksgiving

Living where we live, being healthy and having wonderful people in our lives has long been reason enough to be thankful. Yet when you add an adorable, sweet, charming and rambunctious son into the equation, there are hardly words for how lucky we truly are. Like most Thanksgivings, we stuck close to home and enjoyed a day of good food, drink and movies. We had good friends over to share the day and it was a fantastic way to enter the holiday season.

Here he comes

Just a few shots from our 2nd annual Christmas tree venture (more photos soon). Couldn't help myself - if this doesn't make your Monday a little easier, it's hard to know what will:).
