Compared to last May, this one felt easy breezy. But as I look back, we still did A LOT of stuff! And this post doesn’t even include all of Blake’s stuff! And last, but certainly not least: BolderBoulder2023!! Highlights include lamas, double fisting creamies, Superhero capes, and Josh scoring 15 pairs of socks at the…
Life keeps barreling forward. How are we at May? Is working at Google even a job? Fully stocked fridges, ping pong, a music room, relaxation rooms, a giant gym, an arcade, meals, nap pods, etc. The perks are real. Rusty FINALLY got to go to Mountain View and meet his team in person! 21 months…

As always, it was an excellent Mother’s Day! And it snowed for the 2nd year in a row! I love this day to reflect on my feelings about being a mother. It certainly has its ups and downs, but I wouldn’t trade those tiny humans for anything in the world. They are my joy and…
