Introducing Wrestlemania

It was only a matter of time I guess

The Cold Season

Elizabeth and Nancy spent the last week home with a bad cold. She took to the sofa and watched TV



Wrested with Dada


Pretended to go swimming


Mama after 8 days of this

Happy Halloween!

Vampire Butterfly. It sounds like a goth metal band doesn't it? That's what Elizabeth was for Halloween. She got a huge haul of candy, which we plan to donate to Operation Gratitude.



The leaves from the chestnut tree has started falling and we are in the throes of pruning anything in sight.


Finally, some scenes from earlier in the month - Mom and Dad heading out for a party, and of course, the Jensen household favorite BACON

This Doesn't Really Need an Explanation

It's just funny.

More Summer Fun.

Swimming, Sunning precautions and of course Baobao Butoh

Summer Lovin' - Had Me a Blast!

It's been warm this summer and Andy's been working 24/7. So, we have been busy swimming. Well it started off slowly - witness her standoff with the sprinkler.

Since then, her water tolerance has improved. Elizabeth's taking swim lessons at the Medgar Evers. We go to practice at Madrona Beach. We visit her lifeguard crush, David, at the Volunteer Park wading pool. We swam with Martin at Roche Harbor.


We of course Mad Men'd ourselves. Here's Baobao's (she chose all these things herself!)

And she's almost independent in the water now. As she tells me every morning, "I don't need you anymore Mama."

So, I am back to hanging with George. At least he needs me!

Camp Adventure

We wanted to spend the 4th of July up on the island with Andy's mom and family. Logistics determined that we try a night of camping. Given that Nancy's idea of camping is a night at the Motel 6, this was at best a daunting proposition. Somehow, we pulled it off! You can see out campsite here. Elizabeth told me the best part about camping was "sleeping with Big G."
