where I am

Sometimes I miss being in a real city. I miss the vendors, the subways, the bustle,the shops, the museums, street musicians, the smorgasbord of scents as you walk down the street, the parks, and seeing every kind of person.

Sometimes I pine away for the country. I dream about the wide open sky,and the safety of the thick woods, the solitude, the soft hum of cicadas at night, the smell of dew in the morning, and absolute quiet.

...and then there are times like now when I am really happy being right where I am.

As a quick add on to Josh's post on Joel, check out these pics of Juden putting the moves on their daughter. Her name is Evangeline Linda,(my little name sake, it still makes me teary.)

What do ya think?

It's funny when you have kids people always like to figure out which parent they look the most like. Most everyone says they look just like Josh. These shots are of Josh and I as wee ones. So what's your vote?

trick or treat

Here is our little brood in costume. Halloween is definitely not my favorite holiday but it's nice to see the neighborhood come alive, and what better excuse to play dress-up and eat sweets with friends.
