A Room Without a View

My amazingly talented brother-in-law designed my blog header for me. Isn't it GREAT! In exchange for hours of hard work I let him sleep on the floor in my garage - really - right next to the washing machine. Because of these furry creatures he had no choice but to sleep in the garage.

Definitely better than a trip to the emergency room I say!

Hopefully the delicious breakfast of Almond Ciabatta French Toast made up for it a little bit.

Thank you Adam!!!

What's In a Name

April 23, 2005

We live near the beach where everything is pretty casual and relaxed. You can wear flip flops almost everywhere and all year round too which suits us perfectly - we even got married in flip flops! They remind us to keep life simple, not to get too fussy about things, and to enjoy every day for what it is. Life is full of ups and downs - flips and flops if you will - and we have enjoyed and survived both in our four years of marriage. It is amazing how far we have come. Now we have this beautiful daughter to share the journey with us. She has brought us a joy we have never known and we can hardly wait for all the fun ahead!

The Beginning

Our Family

I must admit I have been blog stalking for awhile now. It all started during my pregnancy when I was too sick to do anything else. In-between throwing up in my trusty plastic bag I would lie on the couch watching tv and looking at blogs of family and friends. If you have a blog I have probably seen it and I have been strengthened, cheered, uplifted, and inspired by all of you. Well today is the day I join the blogging world. It has been my intention all along and my sweet husband actually started this blog for me awhile ago but I wasn't ready then - didn't want to be forced into it ya know! I am ready now and so without further adieu...
