More Geocaching

Walks, adventures, and Sunday afternoons have new meaning at the Heuer home!  We have new reason to get out and discover parts of Washington… there are buried treasures everywhere!  We found a beautiful 10 mile trail and along the way, we did a little geocaching.  If you weren’t a geocacher (is that a word?) then [...]

Some inner stuff

I went for an eye follow up today, all by myself and it was wonderful.  I arranged and then rearranged some arrangements so I could grace the doctors all by myself. Last appointment, my show with the children was just short of completely humiliating and totally embarrassing.  Actually, it wasn’t short of, it was!  The [...]

Geocaching

Ever heard of this thing?  About 3 days ago, Tim introduced our little family to geocaching.  It went a little something like this, “We find treasures… it is a worldwide game and the kids will love it.”  That is probably a good paraphrase BUT needless to say, I question the kids’ enthusiasm when I see [...]

Wicked

I have been staring at these while they await their hiding place.  It is a little eerie to me.  I will eventually wrap them, put them in a large box and then tuck them safely in my closet.  This empty room in the front of my house has provided a safe haven for them while [...]

Just another day

I took some pictures of the kids today while they were chillin’ on the sofa.  Let’s talk about chillin’ on the sofa because it is a double edged sword for me.  I feel so much peace and quiet when they have found a great movie to watch.  They actually get along : ) and they [...]

Mailman

I guess you could say “old school”…??  We actually have a mailbox and a mailman that comes to our street.  I wouldn’t say that they use high tech to alert them of the changes in residency.  We opened our mailbox after a few days of being here and saw the correction had been made.  : [...]

Day out with Thomas

Tim found out that Thomas the train would be visiting Snoqualmie, at the train museum.  So, what does a parent do besides buy tickets for their son who loves Thomas?  Nothing… they buy tickets.  We all went on the outing and the train ride was about 5 miles, from the depot to Snoqualmie falls back [...]

There is beauty all around…

I mentioned our hunt for all the parks.  We were introduced to St. Edwards park.  There is a trail that leads down to the water but we ran out of time.  I love to go to the parks and sit in  my beach chair (since we aren’t visiting the beach, I can certainly pretend…) and [...]

Not the ordinary park

I guess you could say that we haven’t seen parks like this.  We are determined to discover all the parks in the area and there are many.  Each one is unique and fun.  The first one we discovered is what we call the castle park.   The weird thing about parks is the bark as the [...]

Not just strawberries

Forgot there were raspberries too…
