I'm living my dream life, spending my days with my three sweet kids on the rocky coast of Maine...


boy2001 is a loveable 2nd grade LEGO brick master. An average week includes a round of golf, some time at the track with a smidgeon of Nintendo DS time.

boy 2001


girl2004 is a Care Bears enthusiast when she's not twirling to imaginary ballet, she's gleefully giggling to pink princess daydreams or requesting baking sessions.


girl2006 is an Elmo and Little People Fanatic, she insists on wearing tights and dresses everyday, as well as reading our 'I Love You' books everyday. She shares my love for Little House on the Prairie.


My personal goals are to go back to school for my Masters, possibly in Library Studies or Biblical Languages.


Smokey is our playful pup, half chihuahua, half rat terrier he's a handsome dog, although very good with the children Smokey does have his issues!


Chexter is our roborovski hamster, over a year old he's recently started to nip a little!

Sesame Street Live, Chinese Dinner

Hi everybody!!  it’s been a while, things have been very hectic!  Yesterday was Sesame Street live day!  Big B has taken boy2001 since he was almost 2. 

I didn’t even question it, when he mentioned that this year he would get tickets, one for himself, one for boy2001 and one for girl2004.  We didn’t mention it in [...]

going down memory lane, where the streets have no name

Trip down memory lane… 

I was teaching “conversation”  in Japan and had to talk to people a lot.  Inevitably, this time of year everyone was talking about their “last Party” of the year (insert anything, like beer, dance, etc…) called Bonenkai.  These are parties to forget the year, it seemed it was symbolic for relationships with co-workers, student/teacher, [...]

It just isn’t Christmas around here until we put the tree up… Christmas on!  Maine is so dark and gloomy in the winter.  If you’re ever going to be depressed, it will be in the winter.  A lot of people walking around grumpy and not smiling!
