Our present life

We are currently living in Manteca, California away from the cold winters of Chicago. We moved to California almost 4 years ago and started this blog in an attempt to keep in touch with our family and friends in Chicago or elsewhere. We miss everyone from the midwest but we love those who have become part of our life in California. Kevin is a teacher at Ripon Christian High. He also coaches girls volleyball and soccer and stays busy playing the sports he loves as well. Janey is a nurse 2 days a week and a mom the rest. She works at DMC on the pediatrics floor. Mason (5) and Talen (2) are growing daily and loving life! Enjoy our blog and follow us if you like!

Happy birthday to you

My little baby is now 1 year old. It's hard to believe the first year has gone by already. Mason had his final birthday celebration on Sunday. We had a fun party - balloons, banners, birthday cupcakes and presents. However, I have to say, it was the golf clubs gift that definitely stole the show. Mason is constantly carrying one of those clubs with him wherever he goes. His slide was also a pretty big hit. We spent about an hour going up and down. It's amazing to me how exciting it is for him to do the same thing over and over and over. God has definitely blessed us with our little guy. I continually thank him for what he's given us and how he has brought us to the very place we are right now.

Happy belated birthday, Mason! He is such a cute little guy -- I hope I get to see him soon. Are you guys at the house you used to live in on Kiernan? Hope transitioning back to CA has gone okay for you all.
