I don't know about you, but I LOVE and look forward to the pictures that I see on people's blogs more than I do the commentary. Don't get me wrong here, I do enjoy the updates and hearing about what friends/family are up to, but if I had to pick between commentary and pictures, I would pick pictures every time!
That being said, I have decided to update y'all with pictures. I know I spent most of last year NOT blogging, and this is my way of trying to make restitution for that. So grab a snack and pull up a comfy chair because you're gonna be here for awhile......
JANUARY 2012
Back to school...
| Probably the biggest news of 2012 for us (and I would contend the MAIN REASON my blogging became obsolete) was that Mom (that's me!) went back to school. |

MARCH 2012
A "right of passage" birthday and San Francisco
 | ||
| Our little girl turns 10!!! |
 |
| Can you guess why she is sitting in a chair at the jewelery story, looking excited and nervous all at the same time? |
 |
| Looking a bit more nervous here (which is why she's holding Grammy's hand)....but still excited! |
 |
| TA DA!!! We have our ears pierced!! |
 |
| This pic is the beginning of a few of the pics from our trip over spring break (which is in March here) to sunny...er...make that rainy San Francisco |
 |
| That's right!! We ate delicious crab and homemade sourdough bread....A LOT!! |
 |
| And we rode the trolley...ding ding! |
 |
| Dad mastered the art of chopsticks... |
 |
| And we bought matching sweatshirts! |
 |
| Can't go to San Fran without encountering a little sea life.. |
 |
| or without seeing the Golden Gate Bridge. |
 |
| Did you know they have a place called "Ghirardelli Square"? An entire "square" devoted to chocolate! It was like the mother ship was calling me home!! |
 |
| "Krikey! I wish I wasn't made of wax!" |
 |
| And the reason for our trip? Being together as a family :) |
