It's My Birthday!

I realized last night that my birthday is the last of our first birthdays living here in Washington.  My Mom's was in May, Zach's was in June, Evey's was in November, and Jeff's was yesterday.  Odd tidbit ... not really of any significance, but I thought of it so I'm sharing, ha ha.

Since my last post we revisited the sledding area at Mt. Rainier National Park.  We went on Superbowl Sunday and had a lot of fun again, despite it being less sunny this time.  Here's one photo I took on a bridge crossing over the Nisqually River.


Next week I took three days off work because Evey's school is closed for its mid-winter break ... bizarre to me since they have winter break and spring break as well!  I figure we'll have a good time further exploring things to do around here.  I have a couple ideas so far.  Visiting the Black Diamond Museum and the Cedar River Watershed Education Center.

On another note, I can safely say that working out and eating better have finally become habit again!  I have a long way to go, but there has been progress since we started this at the beginning of January!  I have lost about five pounds so far, hurray!
