Ryan, Aubrey, Aiden, Oliver: Carmencita
http://ryanaubreyfamily.blogspot.com/2013/08/carmencita.html
Tuesday, August 6, 2013. At the young age of 22, singing for opera directors was far more intimidating. Now, it is just what I do, but it is far more rewarding, and I have the skills to prepare for them. The feedback I received was wonderful. When the audition was over, the party commenced: at the science museum, Zoo, and aquarium. Lynn McMillan is one of my favorite people, we had so much fun, and the sloth bear is a must see! August 6, 2013 at 8:41 PM. What an amazing opportunity!

Sunday, August 5, 2012. In the Spring of 2012, both Oliver and Aiden decided they wanted to sign up for soccer. To say that it was so much fun would be an understatement. Four days a week we got out of the house and went to practices or games. We all went. It was a package deal. Here are some photos of the season. Aiden trying to steel the ball from the blue team with a backward kick. Aiden intervening and getting the ball. Aiden right in the center of the action driving the ball home.

Ryan, Aubrey, Aiden, Oliver: Optimism and the power of the present: being conscious.
http://ryanaubreyfamily.blogspot.com/2013/05/optimism-and-power-of-present-being.html
Tuesday, May 14, 2013. Optimism and the power of the present: being conscious. This year I was selected as one of 12 national finalists in a very competitive competition. The competition was in Portland Oregon. Without hesitation, I agreed to compete, and decided to make a family vacation out of it. So while I sang for my future, my family went to the zoo. A mere optimist fails to have the information and facts, and a realist becomes depressed! Should I have imagined it happening over and over for months?

Ryan, Aubrey, Aiden, Oliver: "Joy" and the epic Kindergarten Graduation
http://ryanaubreyfamily.blogspot.com/2013/07/joy-and-epic-kindergarten-graduation.html
Sunday, July 14, 2013. Joy" and the epic Kindergarten Graduation. Oliver graduated from Kindergarten this year! Kindergarten had some turbulent moments for Oliver, but he has proven to be a person of character and strength. To love others even in adversity, to work hard at something that frustrates him, and most important, he loves his creator. If you have a conversation with Oliver, it is very clear that he is an old soul and very smart. I can't wait for him to enjoy first grade! You ARE a peacemaker, A...

Wednesday, March 20, 2013. Surprisingly, I have those moments often. Today, I had the recollection, yet again, of that moment, when real motherhood set in. When the recovery time was over and it was time to take care of me, and be a mom. Some people make it look effortless. I feel like a sinking ship, often. I keep about my day, by being absolutely present, at whatever I am doing. When I am present, I don't really feel like I am succeeding at all. I still don't have the answer of why I do so many things&...

Ryan, Aubrey, Aiden, Oliver: Easter 2013
http://ryanaubreyfamily.blogspot.com/2013/07/easter-2013.html
Sunday, July 14, 2013. The Easter bunny had hid eggs and Granny and Grandpa McMillan's. We celebrated with a beautiful Easter meal, and I made a traditional braided Easter bread. IT was so delicious. Definitely going to the top of my "New TRADITIONS" list! I recently decided to start creating traditions of my own. Not only was the bread delicious, it was so beautiful to look at. Here is the recipe if you would like to try it out! Http:/ www.bonappetit.com/recipes/2012/04/easter-bread.

Ryan, Aubrey, Aiden, Oliver: Bear Lake and the absence of Ego
http://ryanaubreyfamily.blogspot.com/2013/08/bear-lake-and-absence-of-ego.html
Monday, August 5, 2013. Bear Lake and the absence of Ego. One day at the doctors office, waiting for my friend to begin Chemo I looked down and saw on the cover of US News: "the hottest bods of 2013.". Without thinking things through, I grabbed the magazine, and made sure NO ONE fighting for their life would ever have to see this magazine. At bear lake, I let the camera shoot. And I didn't shy away from it. And perfection, is sometimes just allowing oneself to enjoy what IS. August 5, 2013 at 9:48 AM.

Thursday, August 15, 2013. My birthday dessert at Ruth's Chris. This year was no exception. It actually started early with some reflecting about my life, and why I am excited to keep learning more. My FB page contained lessons I've learned along the way, and in a few more years there will be more lessons to add to the list. The reflection began with this memory:. That, however, is not how it was. The professor was in fact a pure genius. A mediator whose thought provocation in our assignments, was...But i...
