Seattle

Back in February, Kristofor, Kelso, Joseph and I took a road trip to see my big brother Ben and his family in Renton, WA for my nephew Evan's baptism. I've put off blogging about this because there's so much to share! So instead of going over every detail, I'll just post pictures. :)

The trip up:

 

 Oregon

 Excuse the bed head

 Kristofor has a mouth full of Swedish Fish in this picture. 

Wow, what dorks. 

 My sister Rileigh and her girls

 My brothers - Ben and Joseph

 Cousins! Ellie and Clover

 Ummm, Joseph?!

And that's all for now! There's more to come.

Isn't it weird how we label days 'good' or 'bad'? Well anyway, today was a mixed bag. It started fine, then turned sour, I was feeling pretty crummy and decided I needed an attitude adjustment. Said a little prayer for help, changed the way I was thinking, spent some time with some good people, and now my day's turned around. I've got a lot accomplished and just have a few more things to check off my To Do list before it's time to relax with some pineapple sherbet. 

Kristofor got me this ^^^ print for Valentine's Day. I love it and can't wait to get it framed (I'll wait for the 50% off framing sale at Michael's, and even then I'm sure it's gonna cost a little chunk of change because it's not small)

I keep telling people "spring is coming. I can feel it."

But mostly I'm just saying that because I need winter to be over. I feel like my life is on hold while I wait out the weather. 

I'm so grateful for the little things I have to look forward to. Valentine's Day, then my birthday, and then maybe spring will really be here!
