I Missed It

October 4, 2011

Admittedly, I loved being a desert rat. Living in the desert southwest was full of the most amazing weather during what I knew to be the worst time of year growing up. The months of October through April are so beautiful in Arizona, the temperatures so mild and even. It was like the best of…

New…Again

September 12, 2011

Transition seems to have become a way of life for us lately. One year ago we were in the process of moving from our AZ home to a condo in the San Francisco Bay. The move was a wonderful one for Blake’s career, and it provided us the opportunity for the next job that would…

Breathing

June 29, 2011

I couldn’t think of a better title because this one words sums up so much. Since we arrived a week ago tomorrow, I’ve had heavy breathing from full days, lots of work and peaceful evenings with deep breathing as I soak up the peace and calm I’ve only ever found here at home. As I…

Go Figure

November 30, 2010

I was just reviewing some pictures from our weekend tonight, and this one just begged to be posted. I’m not sure what was going through the heads of either, but these two have always given us reason to raise eyebrows. What do you think they’re talking about?

Half Moon Bay

November 7, 2010

Yesterday we took the kids out to see the beach. It was so fun to drive 20 minutes, enjoy new scenery and play at the beach. I think we’re all thinking we’re going to like it here!! There was a fun area of organic fruit and vegetable farms along the drive, and I can see…

So Much To Process

August 6, 2010

A lot has happened in the past couple of weeks. First, we got a call that Blake’s grandma Faye wasn’t expected to live beyond a few days to a few weeks. This is a picture of her (front row, third from the left) in 2003, when Taylor’s adoption was finalized. Last summer, we visited her…

Halloween Part II

November 3, 2009

November is already here. I can’t believe it. Here’s the second installment of Halloween fun at our house. We carved some pumpkins on Monday night and a few more on Saturday: I need to point out that this year Taylor was completely independent on drawing on and cutting out his pumpkin faces. He still requested…

It Sneaks Up on You

October 5, 2009

The passing of time really does sneak up on you. I was looking through pictures this morning and couldn’t help but see the serious growth in my kids just since these were taken when we moved into our new home only 3.5 years ago. This is our fourth fall in this home. It doesn’t seem…

Bear World with Grandma

June 8, 2009

Our first day in Idaho was Grandma Sherie’s birthday. Yellowstone Bear World was the first stop. Cidnie wasn’t going to get that close to her cousin’s house without stopping to pick her up. I think the two were in cahoots because Amy just happened to be playing hooky from school that day and was more…

Alamo and Riverwalk

October 24, 2008

One of our most relaxed days on our trip ended with a trip to the Alamo and Riverwalk. It was fantastic! Taylor thought museum part was boring. Imagine that coming from our six year old boy. *giggle* I, however really enjoyed it! Then we walked down to the Riverwalk and enjoyed the streets as we…
