Cross Country Road Trip 2014
I can’t sleep. I’m blogging from my phone hoping that by seeing the ridiculous amounts of miles we intend to cover tomorrow, it will persuade me to shut down and sleep. I’m just as excited as the kids, but they’re asleep. What gives? We all decided that the goal was to be one the road by 0600. Alarm set for “Oh my God that’s early…” Oregon, here we come. I guess what I didn’t realize is that we did this drive in August 2012. I thought we did it last year. Oh well. Maybe that’s another reason that you blog, so that you can remember things. That’s all for tonight. On the road in the morning. Next stop… Omaha, Nebraska.

South Beach
We had the most amazing trip to South Beach, but the highlight of our trip was driving to the Florida Keys. We had an amazing lunch is Islamorada. This picture tries to capture the beauty, of Katie and the Keys, but it doesn’t do either justice. It was truly amazing. There was even a love […]
Katie, Austin, Brady & Lily Gussied Up
Austin & Lily’s piano teacher, Kim, had both of them participate in her wedding. Austin was a ring bearer and Lily was a flower girl. It was a beautiful ceremony.
Pumpkin Carving
Athough the kids weren’t thrilled pulling out the insides of the pumpkins, they sure did enjoy the final product. They had a very festive weekend, too, as those are tattoos on their faces, not dirt.
The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie by Red Hot Chili Peppers
I LOVE the Red Hot Chili Peppers, with them in my Top 5, but I think my #1 is still U2. I know Katie is not a huge fan, but hey, that’s why we work and we embrace each other’s differences, although she may substitute “faults” 🙂 So, here are the Chili Peppers doing their […]
