There's not much I can say about these photos without bawling my eyes out. So I'll keep this short and sweet. As most of you already know, this is Trenton's Senior Year. He'll be 18 in February. I'm still having a hard time wrapping my head around ALL of this. And with every letter that arrives from a college, I lose (another) little piece of my sanity.

You're almost doing yourself a disservice if you live in the PNW but aren't taking ... Read More
Santa Barbara
The final leg of our stop was Santa Barbara and let me just say that Davey and I are already planning a trip back, just the 2 of us. We were only there for about 4 hours, just long enough to eat and walk the boardwalk, but oh my goodness, it was amazing. I think my favorite part of this stop was where we ate; Finney's. We got to sit outside and we had a great waitress who made some good dinner recommendations. The best part is that Jackson put Trenton's phone number on the receipt, along ... Read More
