Weekend in Libby for a BIRTHDAY!

Friday, Louie, Bentley and I headed to Libby Montana, to visit Louie’s family and celebrate Lydia’s birthday (Louie’s mom).  It was a really fun weekend, with new restaurant adventures, a walk by the river, and a great birthday breakfast with some strawberry shortcake as dessert!  Yummy!

The Twins are HERE!

When Louie and I were gone for the weekend skiing at Mt Baker, Matt and Casey’s sweet baby girls were born on Friday morning around 10:40 am.  I missed it, and thought about them ALL weekend LONG.  Sunday, on our drive home, Louie and I stopped by the house to see the girls for the first time. 

Kkandtwins Welcome Bella and Lilah!!

I am playing nanny to the Jackson-Fleming family this week…so I have gone to the first doctors appointments, witnessed the baths, and of course been there for all the chaos and wonderfulness of these two angels.  I have tried to capture some of the moments.

Today or tomorrow I am going to try to get more pictures of the four of them together.  It is sooo great to be able to share this experience with Matt and Casey and to be able to bond with these little girls.  Sometimes it is great to not have a job.  It was meant to be.

Mt. Baker Ski Weekend

Last weekend, Louie and I drove to the western side of the state for a ski weekend with the Walters and crew.  Lets just say it was an AWESOME day of skiing.  I really really like Mt. Baker.  I felt comfortable on my skis, and was able to somewhat keep up with Chris.   The house we stayed in was beautiful, but there were WAY too many sweets and good things to eat!
