  • HAPPY 60 YEARS

    Today is my Dad’s 60th birthday! Woot Woot! I love love love this photo of my dad and my family. My Dad’s always been goofy, and well, for those that wonder, that’s where I get it.

    The cute lil girl behind me is my sister Melissa. And my mom’s got the great Farrah Fawcett hair. And yes, we are at Chuckie Cheese. But no, we didn’t go here for his 60th birthday.

    We actually got great tickets to see the Beach Boys this past Saturday night. This year they’ve reunited for their big 50th Anniversary Tour. It was a good time!

    Here’s to celebrating my awesome Dad. I can’t explain how much I love him, how grateful I am that he’s in my life, nor how much he’s made me who I am today. To many more good times and many blessings in the future. Love you big time Dad!

    Here’s some pics from the show.

  • HAPPY EASTER

    I’ve been in love with Serena Mitnik Miller‘s work for a long time. Check out her amazing watercolors, prints and photography, inspired by the ocean and coastal habitats. I thought this print looked like Easter eggs and wanted to share. I hope your Easter was full of colorful treats and treasures (and maybe tasty omelets with bacon!).

    I took last week off from blogging, while my parents were out here visiting. I had such a fun time, eating out, relaxing in the sun, and having some good heart-to-heart chats. And as a favor, please keep my Dad tucked in your prayers, as he is on the hunt for a new job. This visit, was their first visit out here since Tim has passed. It was a bit surreal at times, that Tim wasn’t physically here to enjoy our outings, but this is the new routine. It’s always a good visit when they come out, and now I’m looking forward to my sister and her boyfriend coming out in May. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Lots of love and blessings on this amazing day!
