Book {for my Dad}
I made my Dad the best present for Father’s Day this year. I finally got around to make a great book of our trip to the Dominican Republic last year. It was 60 pages full of fun snapshots and memories. He absolutely loved it, and said it was the best gift we had...
The first day of summer!
Here’s to the first day of summer! What are you doing this summer? Each June my kids write a list of their summer desires, and then we get some days scheduled to make sure we actually manage to cross some things off the list. Some are really easy, some require a little bit of planning...
Happy Mother’s Day
Happy Mother’s Day! Jason handed me this last week out of the blue. Yes, he scribbled it in a few minutes, and it isn’t his best artwork, but it is the little things that make being a Mom so special, isn’t it? I will keep this forever. It makes me smile.
I love being...
Sayulita, Mexico | 2010
Sayulita?
Earlier in the year when Mark suggested we go to Sayulita for spring break with the kids and my sister’s family, I had no idea where Sayulita was. We had talked about going to Mexico, flying less than a few hours… somewhere the guys could surf every day, somewhere casual, cheap and safe, and somewhere...
Baseball season | Palos Verdes Little League
Oh how my boys love baseball! We have been in full swing (no pun intended ) baseball mode over here, with Jason in T-ball and Derek playing minors this year. Between both boys, we have 4 games and 2 practices this week. They are just delighted. Me not so much. Actually, to be...

New Year’s Resolutions
We thoroughly enjoyed our winter break! I scheduled absolutely nothing. WOW. That is a first…. we slept late on a regular basis, went to the Getty Villa, National History Museum, CA Science Center, Malibu Pier, saw tons of movies, went for bike rides, read a ton of books… so nice! Not to mention that I...
Enjoy the week!
Hope you are all enjoying sleeping a little later, eating a little more, and loving on the kids before they go back to school! Mark and I took a spontaneous road trip to Malibu yesterday… J. Paul Getty Villa and Malibu Pier with the kids. Back to reality on Monday.
Happy Birthday to my husband. ...
Looking like Christmas…
The kids picked out a really tall thick tree this year – Derek loved it because the top was perfect for the star, but when we got it home, it wouldn’t even fit! We made it work – same with the fact that I apparently forgot that 2 light strands stopped working last year, and...
