Not too long ago, Henry was invited to a birthday party in the Hollywood Hills. It was held at a home-slash-castle complete with moat-slash-swimming pool. It was crazy & gorgeous up there and had really amazing views of the city and the Hollywood sign:  It was a really clear day, which is a rarity here in…

 After a brief resurrection, our camera has yet again bit the dust- this time, I don't think it's coming back.  This is from our phone. I miss having a camera.  Not sure what to do with ours- get it fixed or what. It qualifies for an upgrade through Canon, but eek- what to do….. Anyway-…

 I was scrolling through some old photo's and remembered my computer was in the shop when we were picking figs from Grandma's tree.  The tree was packed. We picked as many as I thought we would use (and then some.)  I am not sure what kind of fig tree she has other than the fact…

 I was so excited for the first day of school this morning that I slept through both my alarms. After several gentle nudges, I was able to wake up the sleepy 5 year old who slept the whole night snuggled up to me (I'm so lucky!) I threw my hair in a pony, got dressed,…

 His first organized sport: AYSO. All the boys looked like they had so much fun, although, I think Henry was most excited about all his new gear. He's one of the tallest on his team. I loved watching his gangly legs running back & forth across the field.  We found out a few weeks ago that…

 There was a lot happening this week as we make final preparations for the next few days, which involve a lot of "firsts" for our little family (and mostly for that oldest boy of mine!) A range of emotions, but mostly excitement as we enter this next phase of our lives. Be back soon to…

Well this third child of mine is just over 9 months. My computer was in the shop when that big milestone happened. People always say he looks, "just like a Moore!" I'm starting to see it. He's looking more & more like Henry & Kate. He's a good-natured, sweet baby. No teeth or crawling for…

Remember National Waffle Day? August the 24th? I was all sorts of excited to talk about waffles and stuff and then my mac bit the dust. Now, I'm still thinking about ooey ggooey waffles. You should be, too. My mac has been given a new life, if you will. So I'm pretty much going to…

I packed up the children last week (blowing kisses & waving goodbye to our Pops) and headed north to Berkeley & San Francisco. Our good friends moved there in June and we have all have been missing them.  AND we haven't gone anywhere this Summer. I mean anywhere. We hadn't even left LA County. A…

You can read the story here. If you want to donate, you can do so here. Just back from our mini-vacation last night. Will hopefully have my computer back in the next few days. Be back soon.
