March HEAT WAVE!

Braden and I took a weekend trip to Utah for Brett Heywood's wedding. It was cold, maybe in the 30's or 40's. The day we got home from Utah it was in the 90's here in California. The heat wave inspired the first swim of the year at Ashley's pool. My niece Siena and nephew Jaden came along for the fun.
I think I've truly become a "MOM" because the water was too cold for me to dunk. There was a time in my life where it didn't matter how cold the water was- I'd play in it for hours. I guess I'm not patient enough anymore to wait for my whole body to go numb.

My college career started Summer 2000 at Mt Sac and ended on December 9, 2006 when I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts from Cal State San Bernardino! Right after this picture was taken Olivia worked the rose into her mouth.

Three schools (four if I'm allowed to count Pomona College Orchestra), one Husband, and two Children later I finally finished with a degree in Liberal Arts with emphasis in music.

Thank you to everyone who helped me accomplish my goal by supporting me, babysitting, and by listening to me endlessly talk about the classes I was taking.

Christmas Eve 2006-Levi and Olivia

Today I was viewing all my favorite blogs and was enjoying all the up-to-date photos-until I got to one that hadn't posted for over a month. I thought, "Boring!"...then I got to thinking...then got to feeling a little guilty...so here I am, creating my own family blog. Because, what's worse than going to a blog with out-dated posts? Going to a blog and finding absolutely nothing!
