Welcome! I'm a Texas lady who recently moved with my husband, son, and our two furry critters to Utah.


This is a place to recount some of our good times and adventures. Largely featuring a lovable little imp we call Dimitri (born May 2010).


Thanks for stopping by!

My Bodhi Tree

Inspired by the author Gretchen Rubin, I have started keeping a daily one-sentence (or couple of sentences) journal about my favorite parts of the day.  It also doubles as a gratitude journal, which Oprah says is a good idea.  Most nights I pull out my journal and reflect on those small, but lovely memories I don’t want to forget.  Usually the entries focus on Dimitri because he is being so funny these days. 

When we’re older, I look forward to looking back and remembering some of these moments.  And maybe Dimitri and his siblings will want to read it too.

Last night the entry was this:

Today, two favorites:  When we danced together in the living room; and, after dinner, when you threw your bowl in the sink and it went clinkety-clink and you yelled, “Bye bye, bowl!”  And then I picked you up and covered you in kisses.
