1st Cul-de-sac Progressive Halloween party!

This past weekend, our cul-de-sac decided to have a progressive halloween party! It was so much fun & the kids had a blast.. We started out at Angela & Steve’s for appetizers & drinks, then moved to our house for games in the garage, then to Janet’s house for dinner, and then ending up at Huyen’s house for dessert. It got to be late & the kids were having fun at Janet’s, so we moved the dessert over there & skipped the last stop!

It’s the perfect way to have a long party, without one person hosting at their house the whole time. I highly recommend it!

Here are some pics of our fun night! :)

Ready for visitors!

We’ve been in Seattle for 7 weeks now, & we are ready for visitors! My dad comes tonight, and I’m very excited. Next week, Gail & Ernie come. Then in Sept.- Tara & Riley, and then my mom. Romy comes in October.. Any other guests.. come on!  :)

We love our new house & there are only a few things we would fix. If it were ours, we would paint these white walls & get darker carpet. It’s a little light for my liking. :) Oh…and the kitchen curtains are terrible, so those will be going away soon. :)

First Nature Hike

We’ve been seeing a ton of trail head markers everywhere & we finally drove to one tonight with the boys. It was in Cougar Mountain National Forest. We walked a little bit & came across a cool bridge with a trickling waterfall down a clay wall. It was really neat. The trees & nature all around are just stunning. I keep asking Jason, “So we really live here?” haha!

Here are a few from tonight.
