Orcas getaway

We went to Orcas last Thursday and stayed through the weekend. The weather was cold but very nice-Friday was crystal clear and beautiful. We've been trying to get the boys ready for summer hiking trips so we did a lot of walking and hiking. We walked into town on Friday which is 5 miles round trip, we hiked around Mountain Lake on Saturday, which is 4 miles around and we did a bunch of walking in addition to that. They did great especially with the cold temperatures...they didn't complain once. Thankfully, Mack loves to ride in the Ergo baby carrier on my back...he just loves it!

Mack just turned 14 months! He is doing great! We head to Maui next Thursday which we are really looking forward to. My dad won't be there this year because someone has to stay at the dealership and Mom will only be there a week, which will just not be the same, but we are hoping to have a good time. We are not sure what we will come home too because business has been really slow but we are trying to keep a positive attitude through this, although it has been difficult especially the not knowing! It feels like life is changing that's for sure!

5 inches of snow this morning! Can't believe it! I am really hoping for a nice warm spring and NO MORE SNOW! It was beautiful this afternoon though with the sun shining on the snow.

Until we return home here are some pictures:
