Sister Love


This captures a pretty common scene at our house. Kenzie loves Brynn a little too much. When Brynn is not being squeezed by her big sister, she is laughing hysterically at her. Good thing she thinks McKenzie is still funny despite her rough love. I love my girls.

An Inspiring Story

I have been meaning to post this for a while. I often watch this video as a reminder to have "more of a vision and bigger dreams," as she says. She is Melissa Stockwell, a friend of mine from college. We rowed together. From Baghdad to Beijing... she is making the most of life. She did not win a medal in the Paralympics, but she has inspired so many. Thank you Melissa for your service and your example!

It really is Magical...

Disneyland and family combined makes for a magical vacation.

Although she was scared of the characters, Kenzie couldn't get enough of Disneyland or her cousins. On top of going to Disneyland and California Adventure we also enjoyed a breakfast with the characters, did a great deal of shopping at Downtown Disney, and ate until we were all sick. It was a memorable time at the happiest place on earth.
