Hello BLOG WORLD

It's time to BLOG. (I want to preface, please excuse my writing skills/grammar.  If you would like to proof and edit, knock yourself out......)

I am going to look at this as somewhat of a journal about our lives.  The lives of Daniel, Jen and Alyson (and any more that may join the family.......).
I have always loved to journal, but this time it will not just be about ME, it will be about my amazing family.

What is going on in the lives of D, J & A?  Well, to start, we just got back from the beach.  Port Aransas to be exact.  The 3 of us went down to spend 4 days with Daniel's mom's family.  We had a great time.  It was not Alyson's first trip, we took her to Rockport when she was around 3months old, but it was the first time she stuck her feet in the ocean!  She did great, a little bit of a squeal as the waves rushed over her tiny toes, but no crying :)












Daniel and my dad have been busy with lots of home improvements to our home.  We recently put in wood floors in our living room and down the main hallway.  We also were able to run the t.v. cable to the opposite end of the wall (something that we thought was an option when we bought the home).  It is amazing how much it opens our living space up.  We will soon have everyone over to view for themselves.

I have started 2 new "projects".  I have always wanted to join a book club; I hardly have time to read, but it is something that i enjoy, therefore need to make it a habit.  A new work colleague of mine invited me to join her's and I am very much looking forward to it.  The book for June is "The Art of Racing in the Rain", a book told from a dog's point of view and so far I am loving it.  It is very endearing.
The other project I am starting is getting back into running.  I was training for the rock n roll half marathon when Miss Aly Grace showed up and I would like to get back into it.  For lots of reasons, physical strength, mental strength and a great stress reliever.

Well, I guess that is it for now.  I must get back to the "grind" of proposals.
