  • 2017-10-30 Maui Day 1 🏖️

    Today was a combo between total beach day, relaxation, and planning ahead. This morning I made the kids breakfast and after that I spend a good hour or two planning out our week and talking to the homeowner of the AirBnb we are staying at who has lived here for four years and knows everything…

  • 2017-10-30 Waking Up in Maui 🌺

    I woke up to the sound of roosters crowing. That was about 2AM. They have been at it off and on since then and it’s almost 6AM now. I think the kids are still sleeping though I can’t see how they could given the now almost constant crowing. We are very much in a local…

  • 2017-10-29 On the Move Again ✈️

  • 2017-07-18 PNW Day 8: Headed Home

    I ended up driving back to Portland last night with every intention of just returning the rental car and staying at a hotel near the airport and taking the shuttle when it was time to go. Instead, when we arrived, I thought maybe since our flight does not leave until later in the afternoon, I…

  • 2017-01-19 Puzzle Pieces

    What I’ve got to describe in order to form a complete picture of my life right now is a series of puzzle pieces. Each individual aspect of my life right now is segmented and has it’s own complexities and deserves some consideration when trying to make the complete picture make sense. It’s going to take…
