long time,no blog! lots going on around here what with the new tiny person and all :))!

fall is my favorite time of year and this year it has been especially vibrant and beautiful here in the pacfic northwest. thanksgiving is just a few days off and our plans are to eat at bamboo garden which is a vegan chinese restaurant that just happens to serve  an amazing traditional thanksgiving dinner.

today we found out that my daughter is having a baby girl!!! yippeeee!!! we weren't surprised because we had divined the baby's sex the old fashioned way, with a ring on a string, but still it was awesome to have it confirmed by science :))! in other news, i am graduating from college next week and heading onward and upward to bastyr university in the fall.
