Miss Maeve started back to school this week. Two full days in and she loves it. Phew!

Comparing that to two years ago — kindy:

Conclusions:
1) Kids grow up.
2) Seattle is a vast desert in the summer (crunchy grass in background).
3) Kids grow up really, really quickly.

Family Fun

Nothing says family fun like a trip to your local volcano.

We headed up Mt. Rainier a couple weeks ago. It ended up being a wee bit cloudy so we couldn’t see the peek from where we were but still had loads of fun.

And the weirdest part?

Snow. Lots and lots of snow. Still. The kids *loved* having snowball fights in July.
