July was such a busy, fun-filled month! Our first visitors were Chris and Kelsey. They were here for the Fourth of July, so we hung out in our red, white and blue and watched fireworks over the Starlight Bowl at one end of our street and over the Hollywood Bowl at the other end of…
candy + hadley visit
Though it’s not quite officially summer time, the 103˚ weather would have us feeling otherwise. Last weekend, we welcomed the first of our visitors to kick off the 2014 summer. It was Hadley’s first time meeting Albert, and they bonded immediately. We didn’t schedule nearly as many “activities” as last summer, but we did manage…
easter 2014
Once again, we’re a bit behind, but hey, better late than never, right? Here are some photos from Easter, mostly featuring Albert the Bunny. ;)
grandad and janice visit
Upon returning from their cruise, Grandad and Janice scheduled a little time to hang out with us in Burbank. Saturday (yes, this past Saturday–not a Saturday three months ago–we’re all caught up!), Brandon, savannah and Albert picked them up from the cruise ship port, met Elissa for lunch at Porto’s (where else?!), shared lots of…
big bear 2014
Back in January (this is really the last post that is going to start like that!) we took the youth group to Big Bear. There wasn’t any natural snow, but we did get to go tubing down the hills thanks to some snow machines. The rest of the weekend we hung out in an awesome…
home tour
A while back, before Thanksigiving, we finally got around to getting everything photo-ready, but we never blogged. So… here we go with the tour of our main living spaces (only a year later than we should have shared :)
the office 2013
Back in October, Albert and savannah took these photos of the office to share as part of the (much delayed) home tour series. Their post kept getting delayed, and then, well, we didn’t really blog at all, so here they are now. We’ve redone the room since, so look for an update… sometime. Guesses on…
christmastime 2013
Hello there! It certainly has been a while; our apologies. We’ve been busy prepping, traveling and resettling… as well as going on adventures with the youth group at our church. Although we had flight delay after flight delay (because apparently they lost our plane and couldn’t find a working one), we finally arrived home for…
thanksgiving weekend | decorating
After looking at the weather forecast for Friday and Saturday, we decided to spend cold, rainy Friday inside watching Frozen and decorating for Christmas. On Sunny, warm Saturday, we went to Disneyland. A good time was had by all and Michael returned to Texas Sunday after church.
