Love is making dinner for your family and charring the steaks absolutely black. And your husband nibbles on the steaks, and decides to eat it anyway, even though you know it's disgusting. He methodically scrapes off the sooted outside layers and tells you it's not so bad. And while you sit there mumbling to yourself about how bad dinner REALLY is, and realizing that you wouldn't feed it to the family dog (even if his digestive system could handle it), your daughter joyfully eats her cucumbers and gives you a 'thumbs up'. And while she purposfully does not respond to your mumbles, she announces, "You make the BEST cucumbers, Mommy!"
Now, all that....That's love.
I *heart* my family.

So Happy New Year everyone. For those of you wondering if the site was abandoned or forgotten, it wasn't. It was merely broken. Well, the computer holding it all was broken anyhow. Karen's computer had a good life, but in the end, it just got tired. I was able to recover most of the critical data from the computer, but not the key website.

It's all archived and backed up now in its html format, but not further editable. So the decision was made to clear that which was previously uploaded in favor of a new site. As you can see, it's new, shiny, and much improved. All new photos and videos in their own categories.



It will take some time to refine the new pages, but this gives me a strong foothold to start with.

As always, we look forward to you following along, and always welcome comments.
