History - Pics Karin's BD 2007

I love these pictures especially of Jaime, Jill and Mia in their matching dresses. What a difference 3 years makes!

Aaron

Just some random pictures of Aaron, delivering Mia and with his "new" Camaro.

Sweet Spot

After bouncing around like a frantic roulette ball for most of my life, I have landed. Life has become a cycle of small pleasures. I wonder about the meaning. Why these people? Why this place? It doesn't really matter. This is it. I don't feel the need to get somewhere. I am here. Now I want to maixmize on what is here: organize a corner, learn a new skill, find a way to volunteer. As for whatever is in store for me, I am not afraid. I do want to be healthy as long as possible so I can be around in 10 years - 20? to see how my grandchildren have grown up. Small pleasures, small ambitions perhaps, but my joy and gratitude are large.

New Blog - Simple Sunday Supper

I created a new blog and snagged a great blog title, Simple Sunday Supper. I hope to show our real suppers, try some new recipes and invite family and friends to join in.

Jill turns 7 - Better Pictures

Baked 60 cupcakes to take to the summer program at the park. Then we had a little family party for Jill with pizza and what was supposed to be a sand castle cake. It looked more like a Christmas snowfall cake, but it tasted good.

Jill's mom, Courtney, made her a Barbie cake like the one where she was 3.

Just a Regular Day (No Wedding Today)

Nothing special happened today but they did go to Cheesecake Factory to taste what would have been their wedding cake (red velvet cheesecake with white chocolate frosting).
