Up, Up & Away

Here we go! We are opening our world of toddling and chasing up to you. It is with great pleasure and a tinge of sheepishness that we invite you in on this. Blog? The word sounds so silly. Blllogggg. But the effect is nice, and so here we go. Thanks for checking us out.

Josh's dad, Miguel, flew into NJ tonight for a conference, and had time to stop by for dinner. What a surprise! As is always the case with visitors from California, they step back into our NJ lives so naturally that we hardly noticed they were ever gone.
-This feels perfect, we can totally handle New Jersey!
The problem arises, however, when our visitors leave and there is a gaping hole there in our souls, in our time, in our home. Sigh. We miss Miguel already, and he has only been gone a couple of hours.

Welcome to the blogging world, Mandy, Josh, and Micah. I'm excited: we'll be able to watch Micah grow up from faraway England.

The photos are terrific -- you all look so good. Micah, you have such a happy smile.

I totally understand how wonderful it is to have people you love pop back into one's life. We had friends who escaped NJ two years ago stop by for lunch yesterday. It was so wonderful to have them here, to see the kids go crazy together, and to just chat. Cami misses her friend Carter already.

PS. Sorry about the deleted comment earlier. I mistyped something & couldn't edit it :)

Welcome, you guys, to the blogosphere (another funny word!)...

Love the pictures (that is some seriously green grass and some seriously happy Micah) and I'm going to try to put your blog on my google homepage so I can keep an eye on it.

You guys are looking good and we long for a good visit together.
