I’ve been sparse on posting and will continue to be for the next week – we’ll be gone a lot of the week…
We ate at the Spaghetti Factory last night, something that may become a pre-Christmas tradition. Last year at this time Sarah was pregnant (delivered on the 22nd!), and her mom was staying [...]
Well – it finally happened. I got laid-off on Monday. For those who don’t know, this is something I’ve been hoping for – so its a good thing! So now I’ll work four more weeks (starting next week), then go into nine weeks of being an employee but not doing any work. [...]

I got called out of the office today – Riley telling me that Mommy needed me… I ran into the kitchen to find Sonora bent over the stand up mixer, with her hair wrapped around the spindle and her head pressed against the machine. She had leaned over a bowl of cake mix [...]
