About Us

Welcome....This is the story of our family. As the parents of a 3-year old and an 12-year old we are on a non-stop journey through life that includes diapers, teething, soccer, and middle school. Believe it or not, the latter seems to be the most difficult.

These are the things that makes life worthwhile. Nothing makes a mothers heart melt more than watching her children together in such a way that is so innocent.

A Firefighter in our midst?

After much excitement and talk of fires and the heroism of firefighters, Jacob is on the road to being a true hero!

FIRESTORM 2007


Well I had planned to update with pictures of the kids playing and enjoying the sunshine, but instead we found ourselves in the middle of a fire storm. As of Sunday we thought oh look there's a fire somewhere out there and then on Monday as I was one of the very few teachers driving to school (all districts who are sane canceled school) I was thinking that this was just going to be another day and the fires would be under control. Then on Tuesday, after the district got smart and canceled school, we got the order to evacuate. We could see the fires from our back yard, but were really thinking that we were not going to have to evacuate. After about 30 minutes our evacuation order was reversed (WOO! We felt better). We slept, or at least tried to, through the night and woke up this morning to see that the flames on the mountain behind us were gone! All is safe and we are now struggling to keep the 2-year old and 11-year old occupied. Not as easy as it may sound.

Family Introduction

Hello to all. We have tried many times in the past to keep up a web page. Hopefully this time it will be a success. Our lives in San Diego have been full lately. Rebekah and her soccer keeps us busy most nights and weekends, and whatever free (free, did I say free?????) time we do have is spent occupying the curiosities of a 2-year old. Between the two kids and our actual paid jobs we find that it is difficult to have any time to talk to each other let alone leave time for phone calls to our extended families. Let's hope this helps! Love to all.
