Geek Boy Travel Photos
My husband and I both work in software. Our children, poor lambs, could type before they could write. Having a three-year-old who’s more technically literate than many most of the adults around him was extremely cool in 1999. Now, I’m paying the price. When we’re traveling, my child will take my camera and take detailed Read the Rest…
A Review Of 2009 On WanderMom.com
At the start of the year my husband and I were caught up in a Great Recession-fueled tornado. I think we’re just starting to feel like our feet are back on solid ground now as New Year 2010 approaches. During that time, I managed to keep up Photo Friday posts and not much more. But, Read the Rest…
Visiting The Kennedy Space Center With Kids
I last visited the Kennedy Space Center when CAM was almost 18 months old. We had a great visit. He napped or nursed on the KSC Tour buses, we oohed and aahed at how cute he was tottering between the rockets in the Rocket Garden. Of course I had it on my must-see list of Read the Rest…
NORAD Santa Tracker
I wrote this post for last Christmas, but I still think the NORAD Santa Tracker is a cool toy 🙂 Many of the folks who read this blog are Moms (and Dads) with little guys and gals who are bubbling with anticipation and excitement on this Christmas Eve. So, I thought I’d share a tech Read the Rest…

Final Push For Passports With Purpose
Photo Friday is usually a fun, easy blog post for me. Sometimes I write about the photos I post, sometimes I just indulgently post cute photos of my boys when they were younger.
Family Friendly Holiday Events in Seattle
Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year. I love the carols, the lights and decorating a good (real) tree. As my children are getting older, I don’t have as much opportunity to visit holiday-themed events in Seattle but that didn’t stop me finding out what’s going on. (Thanks to my friend Meg Paynor for Read the Rest…

Sydney With Kids: The Beaches
Sydney’s excellent beaches were the most appealing part of our recent trip for my children. And finding a good beach in Sydney is not a difficult thing to do. My boys had a blast jumping in waves, taking surfing lessons and generally goofing around on the shore. Our days at the beach were the most Read the Rest…
Win a Night at the Fairmont Olympic and Support Passports With Purpose Reach Our Revised Fundraising Goal
Today was an exciting day. The first email I read this morning was from my friend Debbie telling me that we’d exceeded the Passports with Purpose fundraising goal. We had raised enough money to actually build a school in rural Cambodia. I remember when Debbie, Pam, Beth and I got together in early November last Read the Rest…
