The California Adventure.

We drove from Arizona to Dana Point, CA where the big family reunion was held.  We had a good time exploring beautiful beaches and tide pools, taking walks in the beautiful CA weather, and visiting with relatives we haven’t seen in a long time. Friday we took the day to visit Knotts Berry Farm.  Will’s [...]

The Arizona Adventure

This is my third attempt at writing a post for the blog.  My first one was entitled “The Joys of Traveling with Children” and I decided it was too much complaining.  :)  The second one got erased on accident, so here is the third attempt. We left Sunday morning from Tulsa, flying to Phoenix, AZ.  [...]

Seth’s first meal with a spoon.

OK, this is long overdue, as it has been over a month since Seth starting eating solids, but I was downloading pictures from my camera and thought you all would enjoy them.  So here is Seth’s first experience eating rice cereal at almost 5 months old. “How to Eat” by Seth Lein First you get [...]
