Photos from two years ago. It's that moment when the lights are out, and everyone is asleep, and I'm alone as the clock strikes 12 on a very special day. The twins' 2nd birthday officially begins! And it's as if they wanted me to have this moment to myself—to breathe, to let ...

Dear Eraserheads, I Knew it Wasn’t the End
Photos from Eheads' London tour, April 2014. I knew it. The Final Set Reunion Concert in 2009 wasn't the end. When you burned your Sticker Happy piano, took your final bow, and left the stage, I knew it wasn't the end. When people started leaving the MOA grounds, and Raimund came ...
15/52: Real Life Baby Dolls
Photographs of my daughters, once a week, every week, this 2014. Week 15. (Are you ready for this? Cuteness overload up ahead. Don't say you weren't warned!) Dawn & Rain: Home from church, all dolled up in their Sunday best. Dawn: It's sort ...
52 Week Project, 2013

Sweet Novembers
And so the past month ended with us attending a beautiful garden wedding, and I knew we couldn't have said goodbye to November any better. My husband and I doubled as dessert buffet suppliers and invited guests to a friend's wedding, and we have loved the excuse to take out ...
Thoughts on Yolanda, and the little ones
It was hard for me to blog about Yolanda. We posted a massive list of resources on the aftermath of the typhoon in our company blog, but as far as blogging how I felt about what's happening, I was at a loss for words. That's how I usually feel, watching the news or browsing ...
Starbucks Double Date
It's November and the Christmas drinks at Starbucks are here. So on Saturday morning, I convinced my husband to go to the nearest Starbucks with me so that I could get my Toffee Nut fix. But his idea was even more crazy brilliant: Take the twins with us and have a little family ...
What September Reminds Me Of
