"I know a place where the grass is really greener"

After a series of wandering years, we have finally returned home to stay (at least I'm pretending we're here to stay). I may rightfully be charged with being extremely partial to San Diego, even claiming that Zion is found in San Diego. But really, I think it might be. As Katy Perry put it: "You could travel the world, but nothing comes close to the golden coast". Call me snobby, but after being here you won't argue.

My two children (that includes the furry one) are also loving our new home. They both spend most of their time frolicking in the backyard, throwing dirt and chasing each other around. The best part of our new home is that we're so close to family that we see them almost every day.

So here is my new commitment to posting more often than I have been...maybe

Aunt Nanny and Grandpa decided to try a new do... it didn't stick.


Aunt Carissa tried to pack Blaine up and ship him to Charlotte.


At our new home in Charlotte, Blaine loves to play in Gus' dog water. Ben gets mad at him everytime; I think there could be worse things.



Easter morning.



First time in a swing. He loved it for about three minutes.


Our trip to the petting zoo.




Everyone loves to feed Blaine junk food. This is the face he gives me when I reprimand them.
