92 Years and Counting

kgnorman — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 13:39:30 +0000

My grandpa never ceases to amaze me. I suppose after going skydiving for his 90th birthday, I shouldn’t be surprised at anything.

We went bowling as a family over the Christmas holiday, and it was so fun to watch my 92 year-old grandpa bowl like a pro! Check out that form! The middle picture below instantly became one of my favorite photos that I’ve ever taken. He’s such a stud!

Longwood Garden Photos

Before Christmas, we visited Longwood Gardens with Keely’s parents. It was really neat, though somewhat difficult to capture with a camera. Here are some of my photos.

Raelyn makes us laugh!

Sometimes she can be so silly! We love her for it

By the way, the order of the photos in the last post was supposed to be reversed. That way the pregnancy test doesn’t seem so offensive!

Another baby!

Hello to our few remaining faithful readers!

Most (or all) of you will have heard by now that we’re expecting baby #2! We found out a while ago, but we haven’t had as much time to ponder this pregnancy while we’re chasing around the result of our first pregnancy! Raelyn is keeping us busy, and she’s excited to be a big sister. The new baby should arrive right around Raelyn’s second birthday.

Here are some photos, including one of the new baby. We are going for our second ultrasound next week, so we’ll post that picture soon!

Our activity on here should pick up now that we can post from our phones…

Summer Catch-Up

kgnorman — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 17:25:34 +0000

Here are a few (ok, a lot) of our favorite pictures from this summer. We never got around to posting them, mostly because we were too busy doing all the things the pictures are of, and now… summer’s gone! Ah well. Maybe viewing some of our nicest summer moments will warm you back up from the inside out. (insert cheesy sigh here)

Enjoy!

Remembering Morocco today

kgnorman — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 19:56:39 +0000

There are a lot of things we miss about Morocco–the PEOPLE, the ocean, the simplicity of life, the hanuits, the crazy traffic violations, the constant sun, and the delicious cuisine, to name a few. But for now, we’ve got only our pictures and our memories to create a sense of closeness to all that again. Live the Moroccan life vicariously with us today through a slideshow of some of our most precious “lasts.”

All of our Morocco peeps reading this, WE MISS YOU!
