Easter 2014

And it's Easter!  Grandma and Grandpa visiting, lost of eggs and candy, and of course a visit to church.  It's so sweet to be here in Marin during this time - spring is definitely in the air!

And Ella turns SIX!!!

It's pretty shocking really!  And for her birthday Ella decided that she wanted to have a sleep-over, so we did have a few little ladies come to watch Frozen, play princesses, and spend the night.  Lots of work for mom and daddy - but I think a ton of fun for the birthday girl!

Maya turns 4!!!

Maya turned 4!!! As always during the ski season, the the lucky lady got to celebrate in Tahoe and again while back home with her friends for a little tea party and jumpy in the back yard.  Sweet and cute.  Very happy little girl!

ski 2014

Many fun weekends filled with snow, skis, ice skating, sledding, jumping (and roller blading!) and most importantly friends.  Tahoe is such a sweet spot to visit.  We had a great time with Jill & Pete, Nicole and Mike, and Michelle and Steve, and of course all the kiddos.  Mommy and daddy also had a chance to ski a bit (thanks to Michelle for watching the kids!)



Christmas 2013

We celebrated Christmas with both grandmas and grandpa.  The kids were thrilled of course with presents, but also with 'the feast' as they refer to Christmas Eve and Christmas day dinner.  Kuba seemed to 'get it' a bit more this year, as he's getting older.  And Ella with Maya both seemed so much older - little ladies at tea at the Fairmont.  It was sweet to celebrate all of it here again.

Celebrating fall 2013

It's been a while - so we have lots of catching up to do since fall of 2013.  That's where we last left off.

The fall is always such a fun time of the year - we do a bunch of hiking, picking up parsimmons, and of course getting ready for Christmas.  This involves the pick out the tree, baking cookies, going to see the Velveteen Rabbit, several santa visits and well, just general craziness.  We also had a blast going into SF to ride the cable cars, visit Chinatown and enjoy some of the Christmas displays.  It's a great season and such a blast for the kids!
