Happy Anniversary to my wonderful wife, Amy! The first 10 years have brought us three wonderful children and countless amazing memories. I couldn't be more excited to share the next 10 years with you and see what is next for us and our family. There is no better person to share this journey with! ‪#‎blessed‬

May 1, 2004. We had an all-day downpour on our wedding day, but so many sunny and amazing days since (and surely to come)! Happy 10th anniversary, Dale!

Ivie left one of her "journals" on the kitchen island open to this page. At least she can be secretly, if not always outwardly, proud of her sister.

Mothers are the most important people in our lives, and I am blessed to have three amazing women in my life! I love you, Mom! I love you, Amy! I love you, Jane! Happy Mother's Day to the three of you, and all of the other special Mothers out there. This is your day!

After surviving a missed connection, some standby failures, and an ultimate re-routing through Amsterdam, we finally made it to London. Only 9.5 hours late. Our bags joined us 14 (me) and 28 (Dale) hours later. Here are some of our Days 1 and 2 highlights...

Rounding out London on Days 3 and 4 with these highlights: Wimbledon, Hampton Court Palace, Harrods, St. Paul's Cathedral, Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, Tower of London, and the Tower Bridge.

'Twas a rainy first day in Paris. But the drizzle didn't keep us from seeing "La Tour Eiffel" in the distance from the top of the Arc de Triomphe!

Paris, Day 2. Rain continued, but sights were still amazing, including Notre-Dame and the Louvre.

Paris, Day 3. Hereafter to be known to Dale as "the-day-Amy-took-a-gazillion-pictures-of-the-Eiffel-Tower". But, honestly. Can you ever have too many photographs of such a magnificent structure?

As the lady in the van next to mine was filing her kids out of the sliding door, she apologized for their delay, paused, and said, "Oh, but you drive a mini-van, so you probably get it.". Yes, ma'am, I do!

Deep thoughts at bedtime by 3-yr old Bryce: "Mommy, why Elsa shut people out?" Followed soon by, "Why Anna take Elsa's glove?"
