• Saw a man walking his parrot this morning. We don't walk our parrots in Idaho.
  • At the 40th annual ukulele festival. Just had a uke lesson. Very cool.
  • I've seen a bicycle with a surf board rack, a fire engine pulling a yacht & a bronzed old man with muscles like a dinosaur. We're in Hawaii!
  • Hong Kong airport. Free wifi. Chai. Lounge chairs. Kids craft area (gate24). Kids potties. English books. Love it! Gotta board the plane now
  • Hong Kong! There's just something about the fresh air and convenient transportation (Octopus card!) that makes my travel weary body smile.

Children's Day 2010

06.01.10

After the kids woke up from their afternoon naps, we headed to town in search of a little Children’s Day fun.

I think the kids look so Arkansan in this photo!

Schäfer insisted on wearing his “pig shirt”. He’s so interested in selecting his own clothing and he’s especially interested in changing clothes numerous times through out

Happy 1st Birthday Sianna!

On the morning of the kids’ birthdays, I like to get a photo of them while they’re still in the crib. Sianna doesn’t like to be in her crib after she wakes up so I took her early morning photos on our bed.

Happy birthday baby girl!

For breakfast, we started the celebration with

Giving thanks for these precious two.

We had a full house this morning with many friend’s over for Sunday brunch and fellowship. The only thing I wanted for Mother’s Day was to take some photos of me with the kids (I’m usually the one taking photos) and to eat out for supper.

It wasn’t the

Happy Resurrection Day 2010

Easter slipped upon this year. Thankfully, when we were packing for the move, we numbered each box and kept an excel spreadsheet of the contents. Therefore, when I asked Hubs at 11pm the night before Easter, “Hey, do you know where the Easter books and baskets are?” And with the click of a few buttons,

A Grave Ride

Finishing and decorating an apartment starts to take a toll on a person. I needed to get on the bike again.

This Saturday the weather was nice. Not sunny. Slightly cool. No rain.

So I hopped on the bike and just took off down a road.

I noticed more and more people along the road. Far more than

Good Friday Goodness 2010

I got out of bed delighted that it was Friday. I knew this because my Ironman watch told me so.

Hubs reminded me that it was Good Friday.

I immediately thought of Annelies and wondered if she was taking the day off from work which is her Good Friday tradition. It’s funny what brings people to mind.

Since
