More From Turkey

As I mentioned, we have a friend travelling through Turkey solo for several weeks right now.  Her tumblr shots are insane amazing.  Check these hot air balloons!  Someday we will vacation in Turkey.  I'm dying to go!

If You Need Me...

Uncle Sylly!

The babes are skiing squaw for the first time. This is major! Good thing their uncle is by their side to show them the ropes.

Girls Rule - Go Angels!

You gotta read this article about my niece Z's baseball team!  So freaking cool.  My sister (and a friend) started the team and my bro-in-law is the coach.  So rad!  Proud of team Lucas!  Go Angels! LOVE!

Mural Love

The great news:  Today I fell for this mural.  It has been around since 1982, but I swear I've never seen it before.  I love Portland. 

The not so great news: I am not in Jamaica as planned.  I'm in Portland, admiring banana murals. Fingers crossed I'll be there soon.

Parenting Reads

I have read and enjoyed each of these articles recently.  If you read them all you'll laugh and cry. 
An 11 step program for people thinking about having kids.  Parts of it are hilarious.  Esp the part about bringing goats to the grocery store.
