Getting Started

Blogging is new to us. Our first real attempt was during our trip to China AKA our "Journey to Sophie!" We kept a blog of our trip in an attempt to include friends and family photos side notes and the whole thing.



Going to get Sophie was an amazing thing that deserved to be recorded forever. Today, I am not sure why we decided to do this; it is not like our lives are so incredibly exciting that the entire world needs to know about it. We have a house two cars and three kids (only 0.6 more kids than the typical family or American dream or whatever statistic tells us Americans have 2.4 kids!!



I guess the real reason we are trying this is because it really is a new medium for communication. Everyone is so dang busy now that the art of cummunication has changed. Instead of writing letters, we made phonecalls, instead of phonecalls we e-mail and now instead of e-mail we BLOG. I look at it as self inflicted spamming. If you want to check in and make sure our lives are just as boring or even slightly more boring than yours you can do it without reoccuring e-mails. By the way if oyur life is more interesting than ours please provide details, I am not above living vicariously through others.



Myriam will probably fill you in on lots of other things like kid photos monthly highs or lows and we will probably both use it to vent about our upcoming remodel of the house.

Okay- My turn here- I really like Blogs- I find it an interesting and fun way to keep up with people..... so if you have a blog- send it to me and I will add it to my favorites and check it out now and again! Anyway, my reasoning for doing this blog is to capture and document our major house remodel project. I think it will be a great way for us to remember this time, although it is already a stressful process! So, stay tuned and follow our journey with us, if you'd like!
