As a mom, I always feel just a little guilty around the holidays because I don’t derive great pleasure from baking projects, holiday themed crafts and similar things I consider just plain work. But reading certain super-mom’s blogs (you know who they are) shames me out of laziness, so I usually end up buckling down and following tradition.
So Halloween is right [...]

Am I the only guy in this country who’s fed up with what’s happening? Where the hell is our outrage? We should be screaming bloody murder. We’ve got a gang of clueless bozos steering our ship of state right over a cliff, we’ve got corporate gangsters stealing us blind, and we can’t [...]

Funny how a smell or a song will trigger a memory and a nostalgic feeling washes over you in an instant. That happened to me today when I played a song I hadn’t heard in awhile and it reminded me of somewhere I used to be and how I felt during that time in my [...]

Kyle has this happy, yellow smiley sign that he hung on the doorknob of his bedroom some weeks back. Last week he had a bad day and came home from school a bit grumpy. He told me he wanted to be in his room and that when I saw the “smiley face” he was ok [...]

Here’s a birthday wish for one of my closest friends. Maria, we’ve seen each other through so many crazy times. We were pregnant together, had our boys close together, and in the process became great friends. Your life has been topsy-turvey so many times, yet you always manage to find the humor in things. [...]

My pretty sister and the squishy.
Mommy and me. Thanks for your prayers for my mom, she’s doing much better. Please continue to uphold her in prayer until we see a full healing. I know it can happen.
Our kiddos. Sometimes it’s still hard to believe we’re all grown up with children of our own. Time flies.

Last Sunday was cold, crisp and gorgeous and the perfect day for warm apple pie, so Kyle, Jer and I drove out to Julian for the best money can buy at the Julian Pie Company. Seems like everyone else in San Diego woke up with the same idea as Julian was packed and we had to [...]

I love this woman. She’s a patient and loyal friend, quick to laugh, fun, unpretentious, warm, and not to mention a supermom. I’ve known Maria for over 3 years now and she’s been someone I know I can count on. I’ve gone to her during some of my more difficult days and after a conversation with her I [...]

I had such a great birthday, thanks to everyone who made it that way. Saturday night Jer took me out for seafood at World Famous in Pacific Beach. Dinner was wonderful, ….thanks baby.
Due to Jer’s cleverly crafted deception and my trusting nature, I had no idea there was a surprise birthday party waiting for me [...]
