Day 5: A picture of somewhere you have been to


Day 5: A picture of somewhere you have been to

In March of 2009 my family and I went on a wonderful trip to Costa Rica.  We stayed at this amazing house the backed up to the jungle.  On our very first day at the house we had monkeys come to the house.  We spent just a little over a week in Manuel Antonio and it was amazing.  Truly one of the best trips I have ever been on. What made is so special was that my entire family came including my nephew who had just turned two. 


We ate amazing food, saw the national park and of course spent many days at the amazing beaches.  


Someday I hope to return to Costa Rica to explore a new area and see some more of the rain forest.  Of course this is if I can convince Rich to return ;)  I remember traveling with my family as a child and have such fond memories of our family vacations.  I hope we can explore new places with Cadence and Dexter throughout their lives.

Ups and Downs

These past few weeks have probably been the most difficult for me since C&D were born.  I am for the most part a very upbeat and happy person, but in the past few weeks I can see that I am not really be myself.  I have to find ways to deal with all the crying and screaming that goes on during the day.  It is so true that with twins when it is hard it is doubly hard.  Although when it is great it is so great.   The Ups these days are seeing my kids learn new things like playing with blocks and Cadence learning she can put them together.  She got the biggest smile on her face when she realized that they snapped together.  Or when Dexter is chasing Holly around the house laughing hysterically.  His face just lights up when Holly plays with him.   These are the things I need to focus on!  Life is really wonderful and we are so blessed! ~MoM

Blogging has bested me :)

So my attempt to create and maintain a blog has been a totally failure.  I am pretty sure that Facebook has been the problem.  Facebook so so instant.  Instant gratification.  I really have to do no work to post pictures or let people know what is going on with me life.  I am not sure I like this.  So I am changing my means of communication in hopes that I can express myself and keep family and friends up to date with the happenings of the Harris'.   So here is to a new year and hopefully a successful blog! My little walker!
