Tahoe fun







This past weekend we made a quick trip to Tahoe. Good times as always! Our good friends the Nielsens joined in on the fun.
It was not Adeline's first time in the snow, but definitely her first time sledding.... maybe a little too early?? But I think she had a good time :)

Prop 8. vote love or vote... hate???


This is an article that was recently posted by the company I formally worked for.

While I respect everyone's right to an opinion I do wish to clarify a position I feel strongly about. I feel that I represent the majority of the people who voted for proposition 8 which states that marriage should only be between and man and a woman. I voted for this with much consideration and an enormous amount of empathy for those who it would affect the most. I can honestly say I was not happy when the proposition passed as I knew how many people would be heart-broken and made to feel that they were still not accepted in the community. I "hate" that this caused so much pain.

To say- "vote love not hate" is simply wrong. There is not an ounce of hate in my heart for the gay and lesbians, and I wish they could understand this. This statement is too black and white. Sure, unfortunately there are some who do hate.. and I shame them. They make the rest of us look ignorant and awful. I truly believe they are the minority and that the rest of us voted for something we felt was right for ourselves and for our families.
