http://can-amyoungs.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 24, 2015. Eliot likes to "mow" the lawn with GranDad. He follows behind with his truck to make sure it's all done properly. Sunny weather just makes everyone smile. Yesterday we went to the Farmer's Market and the boys each chose out two tomato plants to raise. Eliot also picked out a lovely geranium. Thursday, May 21, 2015. Both boys were thrilled to find themselves back on a beach. They knew exactly what to do. Both Eliot and Peter were very impressed. The day was a huge success, as indicat...

Monday, June 24, 2013. This weekend I was SO lucky to be given my boss's season tickets to the game on Saturday! Not only did I get the 4 tickets, but I got his parking pass as well, which by the way just happens to be covered parking RIGHT NEXT to the stadium. We could not have gotten ANY closer! The weather was beautiful for an afternoon at the ballpark. Beautiful! I loved driving there and not having to take the metro, which I have always done in the past. Even though the club was air conditioned, we ...

Friday, January 24, 2014. Route 1 (aka. Pacific Coast Highway. or maybe also called one of the most beautiful places on the earth! The night before I had driven from the airport to Stanford (beautiful campus) and then to Santa Cruz where I spent the night. Then, in the morning I drove down to Monterey and started my drive down the Pacific Coast Highway. Yet again, a GORGEOUS day! I would stop at basically every turnoff and just get out and take pictures. So pretty! One gorgeous view after another! The on...

Yea, the best days of my life are all ahead. 8216;Cause we both said yes to love. Yes to love, yes to love, yes to love,. It makes me think. It's so...

Sunday, March 30, 2014. Past couple of months. Well, the first quarter of 2014 is over. It's been an interesting one. One filled with many good things and fun times, one filled with lots of cold weather and snow (but snow days too! And one amazing trip out to UT for a week. Here are the highlights! I had the privilege of taking one of my most favorite people out to lunch on her birthday! Our waiter took this picture. I think he was a little nervous and shaky b/c we were just so beautiful to look at!

Friday, November 2, 2012. What a bizarre week. but lessons learned. and that's the America I love. This time last week I could not have even guessed what the coming week would look like. The hype of Hurricane Sandy was all over the news, but deep down I didn't really think it could possibly be true. However, as the storm came closer on Sunday and the forecast didn't change much, I started to get slightly nervous. That was a new one to me. I also didn't like the sound of the wind shaking the siding and th...

Sunday, November 24, 2013. And a few personal lessons along the way. One of the things on my DC bucket list was to run the Richmond half-marathon. Last year I was registered with three good friends and ended up injuring myself in October and unable to run for weeks. so therefore no race in mid-November. This year I was planning on running it as well. A few friends registered back in June but I held off. for some reason it just didn't feel right to register! BUT NOTHING BEATS A GOOD RUN. The drive went re...

Sunday, May 18, 2014. Cherry Blossoms and DC. This post is VERY overdue, but I couldn't resist posting a few of the pictures from April's Cherry Blossom Bloom in DC! It had been quite a winter and we weren't sure it was ever going to warm up, but it finally did and the long wait surely paid off! The blooms were incredible. A couple of these pictures I snagged from friends. the ones in the sunshine mid-morning are mine, but I couldn't resist posting the others! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Learn to...

Monday, October 29, 2012. Makes me smile :). A few things recently have made me smile :). My list could go on and on. but I'll start with the beautiful weather we've had recently (before Frankenstorm), the colorful Fall leaves, my experiment with cooking (and actually having it turn out OK! And some opportunities I've had to help others recently. But, these I actually got pictures of:. Fancy Nancy coming to town! I also loved her love for animals! Notice her giving a large tiger a hug! One day I am going...

Wednesday, July 24, 2013. Two more items off the bucket list! I have this bucket list. Everything I want to do before leaving DC. Some are fun things, silly things, etc and some are more serious. Well, a few weeks ago I crossed TWO items off the list. Now, that's a productive week! Tour of the Pentagon! I had to apply for this back in April, but it was worth it! I look official, right? I also liked this "statue" they had next to it. I am so PROUD to be an American! The Pentagon was AMAZING! We had to go ...
