Charlie and Andy at Legoland Yesterday
Sam, Charlie and Andy with the Castillos at Legoland (what seems like yesterday)
We are getting ready for school. I know most of the rest of the country has already started but Andy and Charlie start next week. I’m trying to focus on all of the practical aspects of getting the [...]
Sam’s Gift
Monday, August 16th, 2010Our wonderful friend and phenomenal photographer Deb Schwedhelm sent us an email today titled “Sam’s Gift” with the following link to her post on her website. It’s impossible to explain all the emotions this post brought about. Certainly brought on the tears. Check it out…

Thank you Deb and thank you Terrie, for honoring Sam.

Happy 4th Birthday to Our Own Kobe Bryant!
Wednesday, August 11th, 2010Charlie and Andy in their Balloon Hats
Charlie boy turns 4 today. He is so excited. He’s been talking about his birthday for at least a month and telling everyone that it’s “tomorrow” and he could hardly believe it when we told him yesterday that it was actually tomorrow. He’s our funny, happy, cool (probably got [...]
Pics
Tuesday, July 27th, 2010So, thought I’d catch you up with some pics. The boys are doing well. They both had a great time in New Mexico, rafting, riding horses, camping and fishing (they both caught fish) and though their tethered balloon ride was cancelled because of the wind they got to see a lot of balloons go up. We had the [...]

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010Dear Sam,
Happy 10th Birthday Buddy! I know you would be so proud of those double digits. We miss you tremendously. Dad and I and Andrew and Charlie and your friends are going to celebrate you today.

Running on Empty
Sunday, June 20th, 2010Guest commentary by Neil:
Even with Sam gone, I love this blog. It serves as a diary of our life and I can always go back and relive the events of the day.
Father’s Day. What can I say. From an activity standpoint, it was a home-run. We had a “Easter egg hunt” (we’re big on those [...]
Slideshow
Wednesday, June 16th, 2010Uncle Matt put up Sam’s slideshow that we made for his All Star Party on the YouTube channel yesterday. It’s a lot of pictures. So many that we had to divide it into parts. There are so many great ones, I had a hard time picking. If you have some time check it out:

Outrun it?
Tuesday, June 15th, 2010Sorry for the lack of update. I keep starting an update and then deleting it.
Andy went to grief camp this past weekend and he had a great time. Isn’t that a funny thing to say? “A great time at grief camp” has got to be the world’s greatest paradox. He went canoeing and climbed the rock [...]
