Here is a very quick recap of February in mostly iphone pictures... Basketball for Paige (Jan/Feb/March). Great season on her team Squad Goals (insert mom eyeroll...).   Love that her BFF enjoys the same sports. Carpooling is a breeze thanks to that factor! The girls had great coaches this year, too.  Cutest fan ever...although she hates to be contained in that stroller! We had two snow days due to a big storm with ice that stuck around for about 10 days. That is super odd for the PNW. This winter has been a doozy (I say that as I type this in mid-April, and it's still not really spring weather yet!).  Meg did not like that she could not move around well. Lots of crying and I eventually just took this snow storm party into the house with her.  Finley's cute snowman with the neighbor girls, Olivia and Audrey. These two girls are in and out of our house a lot and they are a total joy. We are grateful for good neighborhood friends! ...

For my birthday, Chris surprised me with a trip to Vegas to meet up with my BFF, Courtney, and her husband, Seth, over President's weekend. It was a whirlwind, but a super fun trip to catch up with each other!! We never lack for fun or conversation when we are together. Chris and I flew in Thursday night and had to be up early to pick up Courtney and Seth from the airport Friday morning. They were troopers after their red eye flight. We went straight to the Bellagio for the Post-Impressionist art show. It was awesome...Courtney and I loved it.  (I know pictures of art are super lame, but ever since my art history in high school, I just love learning about the techniques and themes of different periods...these were my favorites...I want them in my house!) Vinton, La Blanchisseu se (the laundress). Love the light and reflections on the water!    Monet, Charing Cross Bridge  (love the fog...amazing)  Sargent, Fishing for Oysters at Cancale, love ho...
