We've been spending some quality time with one of our favorite neighbors lately - Sophie, the smartest 2 year old around. One night she and Meg and Addy were enjoying some quality book reading on the bed...






The weather in Flagstaff has been all over the place - blazing hot one minute and then back to snowing. Above are a couple of pics of Meg and I are we got caught walking/running home with snow blowing up our noses (on two separate occasions). Luckily for us, springtime seems to have actually settled in for good these days and we are enjoying the clear skies and warm sun.

Visitors from Boulder....

Amy and Neil came to visit a few weeks ago and we had a fabulous time:

* sitting in the front yard listening to the best radio station ever while keeping our eyes peeled for any wild fires in the neighborhood (one afternoon we looked up to see a fence in our next door neighbor's yard on fire, with flames reaching at least 8 feet in the air. luckily the neighbors were home and had access to a hose and they put it out, but not before we called the fire department and got fully involved in the situation).

* walking the dogs.

* going to see the big ditch.

* and watching a red sox game on easter at a local bar.

*

so, um, yeah - i got a new computer.

so far i don't know anything about it.
except that it has this super amazing photo booth program that offers endless hours of
entertainment,
procrastination,
and way too many self protraits.

get ready people.
this is only the beginning.
really.
i think this is the beginning of a major addiction.
