The Greater Southland

I turned on my new bumpin' stereo and was blessed with the "life is highway, I want to ride it all night long" while driving on the five. I couldn't be happier at the time.

Mary Ward Deuce Reunion. Dorm map in the works...

Natalie and Kevin's little Kimberlin. Aunt Lindgie strikes again.

The newest clan member, Lila Belen. Throw an accent over that last e.

Oh, happy day!

New Edition

My niece was born today, Lila Belen.
As well as DJ Quik and the lead singer of KoRn. Awesome.

Editor's note: Don't blog after midnight, learn from Gizmo.
My beloved niece was born yesterday, January 19th.
She shares a birthday with Dolly Parton, Robert Palmer AND Jean Stapleton (aka Edith Bunker - that one's for Kay). Way cooler than KoRn.

Napa for the New Year

A happy New Year retreat. Sorry I cooked all the eggs.

And that was December...

Come and knock on our door...

Postcard from Gram's roommate from the 40s.

And that was November...

I said goodbye to this.

A warm November sunset on the beach.




Jasper came to town.




Awesome cabin time with Suzi and co.
