Liam's on track break so we spent a little time at the park with our friend Gage.  So Gage doesn't seem to enjoy having his picture taken but I loved the results!

Liam opted to play tennis instead of soccer this season,  so I reluctantly agreed.  The good thing is he loves it!  And really what form!

Today we went for a walk/ride and I know that I live in Vegas but it can be cold here especially when the wind blows.  Today was one of those days.  When Kade got home he commented on the wind (yes after nearly  11 yrs. of marriage we now discuss the weather).  And then Liam said "ya it was so cold when I was riding my bike I nearly froze my knuckles off!"  when Liam got to the part where he froze his knu.. off, Kade's eyes got big, he was sure that he was about to say something else.  I don't know what Kade was thinking!

Objects in this picture appear whiter than they really are.  Although they are pretty darn white.

Jack

Meet Jack.  Jack is the son of Kade's youngest sister Kasha.  He is also my kids' very first cousin on that side of the family.   On my side of the family my kids recently got two step cousins but they are about the same age as Kade, so I am not sure that they will bond like cousins often do.

  I hope that Kasha doesn't mind me posting a picture but this picture cracks me up and I just couldn't resist.

Book Club Brunch

This is my book club, well 3 are missing but next time hopefully they will all be there and I can get a picture of the whole gang.  I have to say that I love my book club! Not because the books are always great (most of the time they are)  but because the company always is.  Everyone is unique and brings something great to the conversations.  I really look forward to it every month, it is just a couple hours of great friends, great books and great food, yes let us not forget the food!

Today was brunch at my house and we had read Beethoven's Hair by Martin Russel.   It was interesting although unless you're a huge fan of Beethoven and his hair you may find it a bit tedious(sorry Andrea).

It seems that recently a lot of people have been talking to me about blogging and as you can see I am not a very faithful blogger.  Not that I don't think that it is a good thing but because I think I am painfully private and it is not very appealing to me to put something out there that could possibly be seen by someone else.  Anyway that being said Kade was talking to me on our trip home from Pheonix about how important it is to share your light with people.  I don't know that I am hiding any light,  I think I am not sure what light there is to share or what light would be of any interest to anyone else.  But I will try to be more dilligent in recording memories, even if it is so my children can remember me when I am gone.  My new motto will be Love like you've never been hurt, Dance like nobody 's watching and write like nobody 's reading.
