It's Me! Version 2.1

I thought I would reintroduce myself here and asked for your questions. Here's what I got:


Jen (please visit her blog) asked: If you could visit/or live in any place in the world, where would it be?
WOW! This required some thought! If I could visit anywhere, it would be San Francisco, any of the United States National Park and Italy. My dream place(s) to live are: near a beach in the winter and in the mountains in the summer (vague enough?).

Why I blog:

I started this blog WAAAAY back in 2006 to keep a record of our lives and so my family could keep track of what we were up to and the kids were doing. It is still that but I have added a lot of other things to it. I like that I have to "challenge" myself to come up with something to write when I feel like posting. I like looking back at older posts to see where we've been, what we've done and how much my kids have grown up.

Wife to the Mr. (married in 1997)

Mom to Young Mr. (born in 1993) and Young Miss (born in 2004)
