Sunday, September 22, 2013. Madison, WI Capital Building.

An approach from the west. Sunday, September 8, 2013. From the...

Saturday, October 5, 2013. Fall in New England. Today I had friend come to visit from Salt Lake City - she was traveling with a group of lifelong girlfriends.

One of them asked "Do you ever find yourself not recognizing how beautiful it is here? It is a valid question - don't we often find that we don't appreciate that which is so familiar?

Saturday, July 27, 2013. It is nice that they can finally begin life in a NON apartment since Adelynne starts school this year and the stability of a home of your own is a part of our dreams. So as I was thinking about what we could give them as a house warming present I found the following Irish Proverb."May your Home always be too small to hold all of your friends". I thought how absolutely perfect! It made me reflect back on our life and our home realize we have enjoyed this blessing!
