Today is my youngest sister’s birthday. She is 15 now. I can’t believe it. Dixie and I are 12 years apart in age, so she’s always been the baby of the family. Now she’s big and grown up. And watch out, because in one more year she’ll be on the road. When she was little […]

Last week we took Bridget to the park. She recently got up the courage to go down some of the bigger slides by herself, so she was pretty actively showing off. We decided it might be fun to teach her how to slide down on her belly. We were at Willow park – the big […]

Earlier this week Dave went to Denver on a business trip. He was gone three days. The trip got me thinking about other times we went to Denver. One day while we were dating (summer of 2004) we were playing with my video camera. When the display showed the time zone as “Denver,” we were […]

April 21st, 2008 · 5 Comments · bridget, family

Bridget has a few words in her vocabulary that are very much made up. . . and we aren’t really certain what they all mean. I am going to write a few of the words here and a few examples of how she uses them. Since I can barely pronounce them, and I certainly can’t […]

My New Hair

April 10th, 2008 · 7 Comments · a day in the life, family, tina

I changed my hair. I’ve never really changed my hair before. So, for me at least, this was pretty drastic. I got highlights (Just subtle ones), I’ve never colored my hair before. And layers. I’ve never had layers either. And its above my shoulders. Its been a long time since it was that short. What […]
