Our family life in the tropics. Lots of music, art, gardening, cooking, traveling, ponderings, and joy. Creating memories, traditions
and hopefully some humor. Trying to give back as well.

it was a great summer

Like I said, the summer started out well.  After LA, our second stop was New York. There was a reunion of almost all my siblings at my parents' home.  We celebrated father's day with the multiple generations.  My younger brother set my parents up with a new high tech stereo system.  We talked my mom into considering giving up her flip cell phone for an iPhone.  She began to consider.  My rock star sister, the queen of domesticity (who is also a college professor), made the awesome cakes.

family parties are the best. we've been trying to convince my mom to give up her ancient thumb-sized nokia for a newer and larger model, to no avail. she maintains that it works perfectly well, never mind that it's too small to read, because it's a PHONE - for speaking! :)
