dear foreigners,


especially Brazil, London, Delft Zuid-Holland Netherlands, Germany, Dueville Veneto Italy, Burnie Tasmania Australia, or Auckland New Zealand, but really any of you little dots...

want to be my daughter's postcard pen pal?

she is exceptional at writing her name, drawing roller coasters and playgrounds and sticker selection and placement. we have a big map that we want to start putting pins in and a postcard from somewhere is going to happen a lot faster than a trip.

yes, my six month old is wearing a tie


and glasses in a cell phone photo with my sister


can you guess which side of the family my kids' cheeks come from?

secret note to michelle

in the form of a fabulous scrapbook page from like 10 years ago even though she isn't actually in it.


enjoy. I am quite the scrapbooking-designer-mastermind.
