Oh, Mexico...

Adios...

We are packing our bags and heading south of the border for a little R+R. This will be our first family vacation since the little lady came into our lives only seven short months ago. We are all excited for our time together out of the daily norm - no work and all play. I haven't been to Southern Baja since I hitch-hiked out of there in 1997 after a semester with NOLS. I have a feeling that this trip will be much more glamorous than that experience {which was an incredible adventure by the way}. We have done something completely out of the ordinary and booked a time share at an all inclusive resort. Usually we find a house and rent through VRBO. However, you find yourself still doing laundry, cooking and cleaning while on vacation. So with a friend's recommendation we decided to give the resort thing a try. I am curious to see how we fare - I have a feeling we will make out just fine. Have a great weekend everyone! I will check back in after our little Mexican jaunt. oxo

J + C

Here are a few random shots from Joe + Clare's big day last week. I wish that I was more diligent with the image taking however there were too many folks to play with and way too much fun to be had. My favorite is the last one...I love both of their smiles. Yesterday the happy couple started their journey to South East Asia where they will be living for the next two years. Bon Voyage J + C...we wish you all the best in Singapore and can't wait to come visit!

I heart MV...

I have been missing...I have been travelling with the kids visiting Nana + Papa on their island in the Atlantic. I love my home on the East Coast and enjoy having it be apart of my kids' lives as well as mine. I am so thankful for our time spent with family & friends and am blessed to be able to return to that lil' rock I hold so dear to my heart.
