~~~~~~~~~~ Winter Wonderland ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I love when we get snow! It makes everything look so beautiful. Im not too crazy about spending over 6 hours on the freeway stuck in traffic after work, but oh well. I made it home safe and took the next day off with the kids. We did some sledding, until the kids got too cold and had to come in. The rest of our day has been spent watching movies, making some muffins and drinking some hot cocoa and apple cider. Good times!

****************** Cousins spend the night!

Gavin and Nate spent the night with the girls and had a fun time goofing around, watching movies and playing in a little snow the next morning. May I add Gavin kicked mine and Nick's butts in Yahtzee. Who gets three Yahtzee's in one game, it's unheard of!

Acosta Crew Go To Chinatown!

Since we dont seem to get any cultural influences out her in Black Diamond, Nick suggested we take a day trip to Chinatown. We took the lightrail from Tukwila, which is always fun, and got off right in Chinatown. We did some shopping at Uwajimaya and had some Dim Sum at Hong Kong. Marissa loved Dim Sum, Savanna stuck with mainly chow mein. It was really delicious. The girls may have been a bit overwhelmed, but I think they had a good time.

Rookie of the Year and Most Improved!

Marissa has finished her first soccer season. Unfortuntely her team didn't win a game, but most importantly she made new friends and had a great time.
