Sofia and Gabe have been loving tree climbing lately. They were excited to share this love with their pals Thomas and Tessa.

Come over and climb to your heart’s content Katrina. I really do want to see you. Why can’t we get our acts together to make it happen? We are happy to host you guys any time you want to come up!

I’ve been wanting to visit NYC SO badly lately. I went for a week with a friend to visit my brother who was living there at the time when I was pregnant with Levi, and I had the best vacation of my life. I was worried that I’d be too much of a country bumpkin to appreciate the city, but I was so wrong. I can’t imagine being in NYC with kids. It seems like that would be a lot more complicated, especially since I thought the best part was all the walking around. I’ve been trying to recruit a travel buddy because my husband definitely doesn’t want to go, but it seems like everyone I know either has a baby or a real serious job. There’s a part of me that’s considering going by myself, but I can’t decide if that would be liberating and inspiring or lonely and uncomfortable. We’ll see if I can make it happen, but hearing people talk about their trips to the city is making me even more agitated. January 16, 2013 - 8:54 pm

Oh, and by the way. I have a must do for your next trip. I went to a Korean spa for the day really close by in New Jersey (we walked home across the bridge). Ummm…..oh my goodness…wow. Its not luxurious pampering, necessarily, but an intense cultural experience that promotes self-care and positive and healthy body images. http://www.kingsaunanj.com just thinking ahead! xolaurie January 22, 2013 - 9:50 pm
Oh Laurie,  A few days ago, Michael Franti did a special family concert at the Britt Festival in southern Oregon. We had such an amazing time, and the kids were in heaven. I love Michael Franti. First of all, I’m pretty sure every booty at that concert was shaking, young and old. Even my husband, who is... 2 comments August 25, 2012 - 12:00 am

Sarabeth, two songs you may recognize are “Say Hey” and “The Sound of Sunshine.” Check those ones out first… they are great dance songs.  Gabe has become quite the chicken whisperer. If the chickens are out, he is really the only one in the family that is speedy at catching them. He is also really into collecting eggs as well. So much so, that he will sit and watch (and sometimes yell for her to hurry up) the hen... 3 comments August 8, 2012 - 7:29 pm

Gabe cracks me up! Every time I am around him he makes me smile. I love his personality!! We are having a garage sale on Saturday. Lots of kids stuff, some furniture, a men’s mountain bike, children’s books, and lots more. Saturday from 8-1 at our casa. The kids will be selling lemonade and yummy chocolate chips cookies, so come by for that at the very least. And…. if you haven’t seen this... 1 comment June 3, 2012 - 2:19 pm
I don’t know which was better – watching this awesome proposal or seeing Kara’s reaction each time she watched this awesome proposal:) |

. NYC with little kids would be crazy. The whole time I was there I kept thinking, “Could I ever live here with small children??” In some ways life seems more complicated, but in some ways it seems more simple. Our friends don’t have a car, so they take the subway or walk places. So nice not to have to strap kids in and spend so much time in the car. I so so hope to be able to go back in the near future.
