We’d been dreaming of this European adventure for years, and finally last summer we made it happen! When Emily decided to take French in school (and she stuck with it for six years, often to the exclusion of other, less rigorous electives), we chose to go to France and England, and as a graduation gift […]

For the past five years, in January I’ve posted my favorites from the prior year, and it’s become the New Years’ activity I like best of all! (Prior years are here: 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015.)

(Though I admit, this was definitely one of those years where the year went fast but the days went slow: With three honors classes and three APs in a tough school district, Emily’s workload was absolutely brutal, and despite my […]

It’s been a while since I have done a plain old “pretty flowers” post, so I thought I’d share these. I haven’t been shooting nearly as much in the past couple of years as I used to (oddly, it seems to roughly coincide with my knee injury in 2014—ROFL!), but once in a while I find […]

…before our annual passes expire! Most likely our last visit this year—sigh… Emily had a lot of homework, but we decided this was where we wanted to celebrate our 20th anniversary and her 17th birthday. (And despite her working for a few hours each night and for more than 6 hours on the last night […]
