A Peek into the Past


       Today was the last day of classes at William Jessup University!!!  Now I just have a week of finals to survive (AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!).  My western civilization history class, definitely my favorite class this semester, required us to do an interview and presentation-style write up of someone who lived through the many Cold War decades.  My Grandma made a special trip up just for this project. (Thank you, Grandma!) We talked about many different topics and I learned several new things about my own family history.  Sadly, I had to limit the information down to just a few subjects, but I think the project as a whole turned out very well.  I have always felt my blog is like a scrapbook of my life, and I am very happy to be able to preserve this little piece of family history within its virtual pages.  I hope any passerby’s enjoy this peek into the past too.

Time Flies When You are Not Paying Attention

I found a photo album from the first year we moved up to Grass Valley.  How is it possible we went from this...
to this,...
or this...
to this so fast!
And I cannot even wrap my head around the fact that we have gone from these little girls..
to these adults!!!!
I guess I better pay close attention and soak it all in before life slips on by.

Theoretical Blogging



“What are you doing?”

“Blogging…theoretically.”

“Oooh, theoretical blogging.  Is that like being a philosopher?  Just thinking about something but never actually doing it.”

“I think I will start with this conversation.”

“Truth is more entertaining than fiction sometimes.” 

... but what to blog about now? 

Here is a picture of our new cats.  Reggie on the left, Bertie on the right.
They will be a year old next month.
