the present

"practicing presence"

endeavoring to let go of an excessive and unhealthy preoccupation with the past and future,

and embrace the place where life happens.

the present.

happy spring!

the past few weeks have been busy

and full of memory making!

thought i would share just a few photos.

i just returned from coronado island

where i spent 3 amazing days playing, eating, relaxing

laughing, soaking in the sun, smelling the air, feeling the sand

and listening to ocean waves....and i shared it with my blogging friend joni. our

friend annette was to have joined us also, but her dad passed away days before. we missed her and keep her in our thoughts and prayers.

home again

toes in the sand

we played an egg drop game where the adults had a raw egg and had to pad it with various materials and then drop it.....it proved to be quite entertaining and my dad even joined in!!!
