While the parade at Friday Harbor was very eventful and grand, the parade that will stick out in our memories is the one at Cape San Juan on July 3rd. The kids helped to decorate the wagon, and then they pulled it through the “strip.” There were judges, and the Krembs were in it toContinue reading CSJ 7/3/13
Ferry Fashion
Dressing for the ferry rides in the Northwest is tricky. You never know exactly how cold it will actually be, therefore scarves and layers are extremely important! Luckily if the sun is out, you can bask on deck and warm up–eventually taking off each layer at a time. I wonder how many times these ZaraContinue reading Ferry Fashion
Red, White, and Blue
When I saw this red, white, and blue number, of course I knew it would be the perfect 4th of July dress–no matter what I was doing. Luckily for this past 4th of July I was up on San Juan Island visiting the Krembs (Brian, Jen, Anthony, and Henry) at their new home in CapeContinue reading Red, White, and Blue
Shirt Off My Back
I’ve mentioned on this blog before how my sister Julie and I have this unwritten code: if there is ever an item owned by one sister (usually within reason and most always clothes or costume jewellery although not limited to cute storage bins from World Market) that is so coveted by the other, we will just giveContinue reading Shirt Off My Back

Bohol was the perfect place to try out the new camera. Take a look (no edits–all straight from the camera!):
Surprise! We’re Going to the Beach!
For Spring Break this year, we surprised the kids for the first time! Of course we decorated our eggs for Easter, BUT, the Easter Bunny got a hold of them. He put a message on each of the eggs that needed decoding. Once the kids figured out the clue, the message said, Do you wantContinue reading Surprise! We’re Going to the Beach!
Incredible India
Many schools provide students with a traveling experience that promotes service, culture, adventure, and most importantly bonding amongst each other. At HKIS this trip is called Interim. There are 40 different locations for the kids to choose from. When I arrived this school year to HKIS, I was told I’d be going in one ofContinue reading Incredible India

The Krembs 1st Camp Out
Kevin and I have been camping many times, yet the kids had never been. With usual summer visits to the cabin it’s hard to stray away, but this summer offered the perfect opportunity. We took the kids on their first camping trip to the Olympic Peninsula. It was so gorgeous but more importantly such fun! We hadContinue reading The Krembs 1st Camp Out

Recipe: Broccoli Candy
Our dear friend Sandy Pascolini shared this recipe with us, and it’s so good we’ve been making it all summer long! I’ve adjusted her recipe to serve a crowd–which is what we usually have out here at the Kremb de la Kremb Cabin! Use the florets from 5 heads of broccoli. Douse and marinate for at leastContinue reading Recipe: Broccoli Candy
Spirit Lake, Idaho to Mt. Spokane, Washington
Yesterday we finally ventured on the back logging roads of Spirit Lake in hopes of reaching Mt. Spokane. Although there was no final reaching point to the ski resort, we did come close. The best part was the scenery as seen below:
