Long lost pictures...

I have been married to Asia for 13 years, known him for 15, and I've never seen a picture of him any younger than about 12 years old.

Today, in an online conversation with his little brother, we discovered that all these years, he has been in possession of ALL the family photos - including Asia's baby pictures.

I made him scan some in immediately and send them to me...

I am blown away by this darling little boy. It's the photo-lover in me that just swoons at the thought of having pictures of him, finally, after all these years.

I can't wait to get them printed and create some layouts about this little boy who became my husband.

He's the little one - that's his big brother, Willy with him.

THIS is the stuff that inspires me - stories that need to be told - memories that need to be saved...

Thanks, Aaron, for keeping all those albums safe all these years... can't wait to see more!

    That is a great photo, but an even better story knowing that you have a link to that line of the family history!

Phlumpyschlumpy.

Good morning, peeps. It's Friday. There's frost outside this morning. *FROST!* This week has been ridiculously chilly. I'm having mixed feelings about blogging lately. Mostly because I feel like all I've been doing is whine about being tired. Or overwhelmed. And because comments are lacking. And because I can't seem to think about anything to write about except Tejan. And because some of the thoughts I'm having are too private for the blog - or too repetitive. Or too unformed to turn into actual words you all could understand. So I'm struggling a bit. And yet, I'm committed to documenting the process I'm in. So I'll keep writing when the words come. And when they don't, like this morning, when I looked at that intimidating blinking cursor and my mind went blank and I started to break out in a cold sweat and began by talking about the weather... well, then, I'll just gracefully (or not so gracefully) back out of the room... tail between m...

Missoula Children's Theater

Last week Savannah and Ethan were both cast in their school's Missoula Children's Theater production of Red Riding Hood. Savannah was cast as Mother Hood and the Grandmother, and Ethan was Robin Hood - the Hood family's cousin from England. After five days of intense rehearsing, (four and a half hours every day after school) they were ready for two shows on Saturday afternoon. It was so fun for them. And fun for me, as I was one of two parent volunteers with the privilege of being at every rehearsal. I come from my own childhood experience of many opportunities with theater and musicals, so watching them experience the thrill of performing was awesome. It was an amazing week. I'm so glad they had the chance to do it. I loved that instead of having to commit to weeks and weeks of rehearsals, they just had to do this one really intense week. A full scale musical production without a month of rehearsing and I didn't have to sew any costumes! That's my kind of pla...
