My Talented Husband

My sister kept telling me that we should start a blog, but I resisted because I didn't think we had much to blog about. But, I've been thinking lately about what makes our family interesting. These pictures made it obvious that Jason's many talents are one thing that sets us apart:

Jason plays the guitar very well and I love when he has time to play for me.


Here's a definite talent: being able to look exactly like his dad 20 years ago. Jason's mom found these glasses and Jason had been growing out his hair . . . pretty scary, eh?

I was trying to find a picture of Jason doing magic, which is one of his greatest and most popular talents, but I couldn't find any. But I thought this showed his other magic skills. This is our nephew Jackson when we were in Berlin for Christmas. Okay, maybe I just thought it was cute!


The best talent that Jason has is his ability to calm me down and make me smile even when I'm as grumpy as can be. That's REAL talent!

The Nursery


OK - so it's not really a nursery, it's just a wall (the only wall in the house that we could dedicate totally to the baby). But, this is the first project like this that has actually turned out the way I had envisioned, so I'm pretty excited. It makes me hopeful that we might even get the rest of our lives ready in time for the baby (we'll see)!
