Strike a pose

Silly posing by my team at our work offsite meeting yesterday.

I am very lucky to work with such a smart and fun group of people.

Marital harmony resored: The Shed is Complete

I won't go into the gory details of what it took to get this shed put together... lets just focus on the happy outcome: Have you ever seen a more gorgeous garden shed in your life? I don't think so. I'm thrilled with this darling new addition to the garden.


Here's a glamor shot close-up of the shed's adorable details.


Ah, the bliss.

Strawberry Shortcake

After polishing off what was on his plate, he proceeded to climb onto the counter in pursuit of the bowl of leftover whipping cream. Both the bowl and the boy came crashing down onto the floor a moment later. After a momentary pause (during which I was sure he'd broken a bone), he popped up grinning ear to ear, saying "I ate some on the way down!"

Sleepover with Jane

Julia had a guest on Saturday night. It was a busy night. Fava beans were shucked, the climbing dome was summitted, the tricycle was tested, the Meow Meow game was played, the Blendy Pens were used, Cinderella was watched, and the cat was pet. Fun night for all, and they even got a little sleep.

Rare sighting: Grandpa on a bike!

Lion King Weekend

Thanks, Nana and Grumps, for taking us to the Lion King and for treating us to a special weekend! We had a great time. Highlights were the Lion King, of course, seeing Brad, Kim, Kira and Gwen, and looking for the soccer ball way up in the tree. :)

Wendy and the kids in the garden

Here is our very favorite person in the world, WENDY! With the kids, in the back yard.

Griffith Clan Reunion

Here is a picture of the whole Griffith crew, taken at the reunion last month in Pajaro Dunes. Thanks to a bit of organizing by Janie and Susan, ever single aunt, cousin, nephew, mommy, brother-in-law, grandpa, and the like were represented. Here we all are!

It was great to see everybody and have all the kids together. Thanks to everybody for making it such a fun weekend!

Been a while...

I've been busy, what can I say. But I'm thinking it would be nice to give the blog another try. I have a mac now, and am not sure how it will work with iPhoto... so this is a test post to see. Here is a picture of a few of us at the Walk4Hearing.

Happy New Year!

A quick look back at the past few months of 2009 as we say farewell to a great year and say hello to 2010. Happy New Year to all!
