Just the Seven of Us


When I decided to follow in my husband's footsteps and start this blog, I asked him what I should call it.
"I don't know," he said. "Think for yourself."
When I told him I had decided on a title, he was a little perturbed.
"Don't make it about us, make it about you," he said. "You make me look like the selfish one."
But my life is my family - my amazing husband, our tiny star of a child, our three crazy rescued cats and our big red failure of a show dog. Not that my husband doesn't love and uphold all these things as precious, too. It's just that since I started staying home after my son was born October 2006, this is my world.
So that's what my blog will be about. Our little (okay, medium) house in Surprise, Ariz., our increasingly "crunchy" lifestyle and the beautiful, bright little soul that we call River.
If you are reading this, welcome. As my husband says, "Let it get weird."
