Bird Food

...I have lots of say so as a parent, right? I tend to let things slide sometimes, like "Amelia, don't feed the birds"

Spring Break for us!

Hello, back from a 1 1/2 year break...you missed a lot. Our family has been great,and things are just as they should be. Preston's music career is sailing away, my job is very fulfilling, Amelia is a bright and spirited 4 year old who is "why-ing" a lot, and we have been testing the waters with being foster parents.

We are currently enjoying a most wonderful vacation at Edisto Beach. It has been so amazing. The weather has been spectacular.

Winter!

We have really had a blast with all the snow! Good times and good snowman!

Amelia's 3rd Birthday

See Julian Run

Well, Bele Cher was this past weekend and every year there is a 5K road race held as part of the festival. It's a pretty intense (hilly) run and thankfully my two girl friends Robin and Ashley ran it along with me. It was a blast. This marked my 4th race this summer. There's just something about these events that I have come to really enjoy. It's MY time, and My thing that I can do and keep in shape for for my own sanity. Usually I do these totally by myself...no crowds of close personal friends (Preston and Amelia)cheering me on to the finish line. But I like it that way. It's just my "clear-my-head-time", to be by myself...what can I say, everyone needs that!

Some Thriller!

I love this!...Am I the last to see this? There were like 26 million hits on this! Here is the write up about the inmates:
there was a special on these guys.... the prison warden makes his inmates participate in mandatory organized dance practice because his prison is predominantly rapists and murderers and he was having a gang violence problem he couldn't control so this was his solution and apparently it works well......... they have performances for family and the public to attend and sometimes they appear at events ..... awesome way to impose positive structure and discipline... kudos to the warden :)
And this is just their practice session. Check out all of the other dances they perform! It's amazing!
