Adventures & ramblings

  • More blankets

    Since I liked the idea of the one I made for Quince so much, I decided to make two more for two friends who are also pregnant. One of them just had their baby girl a couple weeks ago, while the other is due in the beginning of April(also with a girl). Here’s how the…

  • Weekend fun

    Richard has been working hard on Quince’s bedroom in prep for the arrival of Kami and Alicia this weekend to add their creative touch using paint. Here are some quick pictures of the room in stages. When painting the ceiling Richard got a fancy white paint which rolls on pink and dries to a flat…

  • The start of the last trimester

    In addition to having a number of visitors to the house over this last weekend, it also marked the start of our 3rd trimester. But before I rattle off the things about pregnancy, weekend adventures! (They are more interesting anyway). Saturday afternoon we were visited by Tj and his two brothers, Micah and Shilow. All…

  • We have blanket!

    I made a blanket for Quince. In my time surfing the internet for items to add to our list of things to buy for him, I noticed that the picnic blanket(those with a vinyl backing to prevent getting wet) are very popular for babies. Of course they are smaller, and boast cute baby-friendly prints on…

  • New year, new post

    Hello! I hope that everyone had a great New Year’s and aren’t too hungover on this Jan 1st. Richard, Kami and I had a great dinner at a place in Sequim called Alderwood Bistro. We had heard about it, but never eaten there before, so we thought new year’s eve dinner would be a good…

  • Holy Snow Fall! And Thanksgiving notes

    Here’s some pictures I took with my phone over the course of the day. Although it’s hard to tell snow is falling in both of them. I think you can actually see it a little better in the afternoon shot. The first one was taken in the morning, shortly after Richard left for work. The…

  • To China and Back… plus some other news.

    Happy November! Today is a rather cold one with temperatures at 25 and steady snow fall. This is unusual for the week of Thanksgiving. Hopefully, we’ll be able to make to over to Shoreline for our annual dinner at Steve & Meg’s house. This post is rather late in coming as I accidentally broke my…

  • Maybe I am crazy…

    This could be a shock to many, however sometimes those are good, right? After much hmm and hww I decided to quit working at the store. I’ve heard all sorts of questions such as “are you sure you want to quit during these economic times” and the like. My answer is yes, I am sure.…

  • Few and far between

    I meant to post here a bit more like once a month when we moved from nothing to wordpress, it hasn’t really worked out that way for me. Part of the problem is that when I think about posting, ie waiting in the ferry line or over at someone else’s house, I either lack internet…

  • Sakuracon 2010

    I have posted up pictures from this year’s con already! Although some of them need to be rotated so deal with it until I get that done. I don’t have much free time somehow so it’s on the back burner of things to do. 🙂 This year was a pretty good time. Kami made both…
