My oldest daughter went to the high school nationals a week ago in Florida. She was excited and had a good time but she was ready to be done. She enjoyed the competitions and the rigorousness of the training but there were things she didn't enjoy, and thus, after two years of POM, she's moving... Continue Reading →
Drive up to Mt. Evans.
Over the weekend I graduated with my Master's degree. I never thought I'd ever get here so I'm pretty thrilled. I started my program in the fall of 2009 and then took a hiatus in the summer of 2010. I had wanted to return but family life was more of a priority at the time.... Continue Reading →

This was a bittersweet performance not only because my daughters won't be dancing anymore (my oldest just loves ballet and lyrical), but also because a girl at the dance studio committed suicide and...

Welcome November! October felt a little long this year but it could be due to the steady weather we've had. Just maybe a couple of days of rain during the night and zero snow. Anyhow, in mid-September, Artifact Uprising offered free square prints and I thought I'd try it out to see what's so special... Continue Reading →
Went to lunch with my sister. It's always nice to spend time catching up over lots of food. After lunch, I went over to my parents' and Mom gave me some cucumbers from her garden and some Hmong herbs. Every year I ask her for herbs to plant in my pot because I don't have... Continue Reading →
