I love a good time wasting obsession… Not one that necessarily takes away from REAL time, but those minutes that you are going to waste anyway.   So, when I am sitting in carline, watching the boys drive around and around the house on various motorized vehicles or sitting in a waiting room of some form, [...]

Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens – 8525 Garland Road, Dallas, TX 75218; [...]

We spent the day at the pool (not ours) with a dog (not ours) and it was pretty magical. Reid(7) and Taffy(dog years) splashed, swam, jumped and fetched for hours. At first Reid was throwing a ring into the pool for Taffy to fetch. Then Taffy started dropping a torpedo into the deep end for [...]

We were in the Vail Valley last week.  It was incredibly beautiful. And the perfect temperature…in the shade. I have 1000s of pictures.  Approximately 67% of them are of poppies. The poppies were so vivid.  I may post a poppy a day for the rest of the year… Many of the photos above are from [...]

We visited Winter Park, CO on Sunday. Get it? The title of this post is Summer Park. And it is really Winter Park. A few days of vacation can really unleash my creativity.

June 20, 2010

Monday can only mean one thing, my friend… It is potluck time. Today’s potluck is brought to you by the letter Y. Here is a little confession: Reid’s seventh birthday was last week.
