Why a picture of my computer screen you ask? Well... because it was the only picture I took! So it's all I have!

There are a few hills like this at the elementary school. Guess what? The kids are forbidden to go on them. Isn't that ridiculous? You combine grassy HILLS with active BOYS and you expect them to stay off the hills! Well... it never works... as soon as the school bell rings, I always see kids climbing them. They are just so inviting. There is a reason there was magic when Maria sang, "The hills are aliiiiive with the sound of muuuusic...." Let children be children... let them run and sing and climb the hills of life! So here are my boys... being naughty on the hill while their cool mom snaps a picture of the moment!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! Here is the gold at the end of the rainbow! These lovely holiday cupcakes were made by a good friend. She stopped by and surprised us with a bit of holiday cheer. The homemade buttercream frosting on these beauties was out of this world! Needless to say, they didn't last but a minute. I feel so blessed to have such good friends!

Rainy Reflections... As I sat, doing some computer charting in the birth center, I noticed how hard it was raining. Because the windows are flush with the outside wall, they get very wet when it rains. And because of the type of window, everything reflects back at night. So the raindrops in this shot are very real... not superimposed by a photo editing program or anything like that. I thought it turned out nicely!

Regardless of the season, Puget Sound waters are beautiful and we are blessed to have this immense beauty right in our own neighborhood!
