Happy 12th Anniversary to Us

Today we celebrated our 12th Anniversary, family style.  It was a beautiful day so we ordered Ohana take-out and spent the evening at Lake Sammamish.  It was a perfect way to celebrate during these crazy times.  

Maybe next year we can go back getting dressed up and having dinner at a fancy restaurant but for now it was perfect!

I am one lucky mom!

Happy Mother's Day to all of the amazing moms I know.  I feel blessed that God chose me to be Kallie's mom and lucky to have my mom as an amazing role model.   Today I feel grateful that we were able to celebrate Mother's Day with my family indoors - without masks!  It was the first time we have all been together in a VERY long time.  It was the perfect way to celebrate.

I am one lucky mom!  I love you Kallie Bates 

Washington Cup Finalists

Kallie's soccer team participated in the Washington Cup Tournament over the last few weeks.  They played hard and made it to the finals!  After a full game, two overtimes and 10 penalty kicks per team they ended up coming in 2nd place.  We are so proud of the team and Kallie for how hard they worked throughout the entire tournament - Great work Gunners!
