Top 10 Photos of 2005

OK, these aren't really in any special order, but I wanted to show off my personal top 10 list for 2005:


#1 and #2: Within the short span of just one year, S-Boogie decided to grow hair and now looks much more like a real girl.


#3: Due to sudden, massive plumbing failure in our old place, we got to move a few doors down to an apartment that did not have brown walls, brown carpet, or brown curtains.


#4 Master Fob finished his thesis and became a master, giving me hope that it can be done.


#5 Two weeks in Hawaii, during which S-Boogie made good use of her cute pink swimming suit.


#6 S-Boogie turned 2 and we celebrated with a fabulous party at her favorite place, the Scera Park pool.


#7 We became very, very grateful for good health insurance after 2 seperate hospital stays for breathing troubles. S-Boogie was diagnosed with asthma and now we give her medicine every day that seems to be helping quite a bit.


#8 Master Fob, S-Boogie and the redwood trees. We enjoyed a visit to San Francisco and spent lots of fun time with Th, Lady Steed, and the Big O.


#9: The best Halloween costume ever: S for Supergirl (and S-Boogie)


And, of course, the number one photo of 2005.

Happy New Year!

I feel so sorry for you and Master Fob in, oh, say, fourteen years. Sophie is far too cute for words.

The Truth Comes Out

I have a problem when it comes to buying shoes. Well, it's actually a problem with buying clothing in general. I'm cheap. Very cheap. I tend to have arbitrary price limits in my head and refuse to buy anything that costs more than that. This does come in handy considering our limited funds for things like clothing and shoes, but it also means that I tend to have a wardrobe of odd, non-matching, ill-fitting clothes. While it's true that I have found some great things at thrift stores and on clearance, I definitely have other clothes that are just plain lame. I will often choose to buy things because they are cheap, even sacrificing what I really want because it doesn't fit my predetermined price conventions. I am convincing myself to buy this jacket because it is comfortable, stylish, fits a wardrobe need (I don't have a blazer or jacket), and matches a skirt I already have. Oh and it comes in petite, so I can get a large that won't squeeze my tummy and not hav

Living with ideals

The first thing on my agenda in Davis was a lunch with some of the current graduate students. One of them asked me a question about my last name and my heritage, to which I replied that it was my husband's last name. That got me some fairly strange looks. Then there was the fact that I didn't order coffee after lunch with all of them. And then there was the awkwardness (more than once during the last few days) of trying to explain why I lived in Spain for over a year and didn't see any movies, go to any plays, or study at the university. Oh, and the fact that I don't drink wine and even though I'm not quite thirty I have been married for almost seven years and have two kids. Man, I am such a weirdo. I lived in Utah for so long that I became very comfortable in not having people think some of the things I do are strange. It was challenging this week to be back in an area where people questioned my choices and I had to explain "I'm a Mormon" (yeah, I kno
