Regardless of your politics, today is a day to celebrate progress in America. As I watched the election results come in (while sitting in class), tears streamed down my face. I called my brother Hanns, and the first thing he said was, “I wish Dad was here to see this.” “Me too,” I said. Me [...]

Procrastination
Posted in Uncategorized on October 28, 2008 | 3 Comments »
I don’t have enough free time to be blogging; I have to research a paper tonight and write another paper as well. But I’m feeling the need to procrastinate. It’s been more than a month since my last post, so there is a lot to catch up on. Luckily life has been pretty consistent - [...]
Change
Posted in Uncategorized on September 21, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I’ve been a bit anxious this week, as I know a lot of change is coming soon. On a side tangent: One of my favorite memories from growing up was hanging out at Jessie Kinnahan’s house and sitting in the living room while she played piano (without any formal lessons - she just learned). She [...]
Good Day

Sunday was a good day. Saturday was too - I was pretty tired on Saturday because Mel and I spent a lot of time finishing up Reyna’s room (more pictures coming soon) and then we ran errands pretty late.
Sunday I woke up at 6:30 in the morning to drive to Greenlake and run a 5K [...]
Summer fades away

It’s been a while since I’ve written - my apologies. No good excuse really, except the usual busyness of life.
After Glacier we took it easy for about a week, except that I started working a second job teaching students study skills, learning styles and brain preferences (left brain, right brain…though I’m not sure how scientifically [...]
Oh, mountain

Wednesday morning was gray and cloudy, but when I checked the Mt. Rainier web cam, it said things would clear up by the middle of the day. So I got in the car with my neighbor, Tracie, and her daughter Reyna, and drove south.
By the time we got to Tacoma things were clearing up a [...]
4th of July Weekend

We’ve had a busy weekend.
Our friend Shannon has been staying with us since our family trip and is settling into Seattle from Florida. To get some exercise and help acquaint her with some of the scenery in Washington, we decided to try a somewhat tougher hike and climb to Lake Serene. My friend Becca (from [...]
Frost Family Reunion
Posted in Uncategorized on July 5, 2008 | 1 Comment »
So this past week was filled with great Frost family reunion fun (that’s Keba’s family in case you were confused by the last name thing). Aaron and I flew to BAUston and rented a CAH, picked up Teddy and Lori, and met the rest of the family on “the cape” - which Aaron says with [...]
Thank you for sun
Posted in Uncategorized on June 16, 2008 | No Comments »
School has been over for a whole week now, but I was really struggling to get that “you’re finished” feeling. I think it was because the sun was hiding last week.
After my final presentations, papers and assignments, we had an end of the year picnic for our program and gave out awards to top faculty. Despite [...]
Olympic Coast

Despite that I only have two weeks of school left, and three very major, very large group final projects to work on, I am SO glad we went away this weekend.
Aaron and I aren’t really “campers”….The first time we ever used our tent (thanks Matt Guy) and sleeping bags (thanks Aaron and Kellie) was in [...]
