Santa Barbara

Category: Travel & Trips Posted by Maisie on Sep 21, 09

We spent the last week in Santa Barbara CA.  Luke and Jesse went to a conference the first couple days and the rest of the time was spent hanging out with Jim and Michelle in the area.  Our hotel overlooked the ocean which was nice, so we spent some time at the beach.  We also went downtown and spent a couple hours in Solvang (a dutch town) and toured some wineries.  It was a good trip, but I’m glad to be home.  I was at the end of my rope yesterday.  I wonder when I will actually be able to fully relax on a family vacation…  Maybe that will be 10 years from now??

“Hah”

Category: Baby News Posted by Maisie on Sep 11, 09

Izzy found one of Luke’s hats in the mud room today.  She put it on and went around the house saying “hah, hah” (she means “hat”).

Colorado Run 5K

Category: Daily Life Posted by Maisie on Sep 07, 09

I made it across the finish line with a finishing time of 39:09! Okay, compared to the top finisher who had a time of 16:26 that’s nothing, but I still feel good that I crossed the finish line. During the run I was thinking that it’s crazy that people pay to run in these races! I ran with friends Heidi and Gretchen who helped to keep the pace. Again, thanks to Nate who helped me train for this event. I don’t think I’ll run another 5K in awhile =)

Super 8’s

Category: Daily Life Posted by Maisie on Sep 01, 09

During our move we discovered some digital versions of super 8 films that were taken when Luke was a baby. It’s fun to see Luke and Jesse as little kiddos and random shots of their life.


This video is of some Saint Bernards Luke’s parents use to own.


We think this dog was Luke’s cousin Corey’s dog back in the day.


Perfect example of where Izzy gets all her energy!


Little Luker going down the slide.


Little Luker might have been a scaredy cat!


My favorite video…Jesse, being a typical boy, super excited about his new Christmas present, but then…


Luke’s dad and his cool hair do!
