so i’m going to try my hand again at the whole blog thing. i think i tried to just do updates about my family, instead of just thoughts and random observations about life (which, shoot, sometimes is more fun! though i’m sure the grandparents would disagree) so here i sit, hand-creating all the details and colors/style of this blog, which has seen more facelifts than goldie hawn. ok, so not that many, but you get the idea. and just because, here’s a picture of us at the beach just about a mile down the road from our house. strawberry and banana aren’t the most pleased to being posed here. apparently that day was not a ham it up day.
