Winter vacation

December 22, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

We just finished a tasty breakfast of oatmeal with cranberries and figs. Now we're off to he post office and mall to do some last minute gift shopping. We're missing you all so much this year! I still want a redo of last Christmas, one where I'm not sick. Hopefully the snow, hot toddies and cookies will help smooth the holiday. I'm attempting a tifel for Christmas dessert so I'll be with all of you in foodie spirit.



Thanksgiving

November 27, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! The pies are done, the turkey is in the oven and the bread is rising. I'm sure we'll get in a listening to Alice's Restaurant too. We all of you are warm and happy today!

Trip

September 19, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

I had hoped to post more during our trip but we were scheduled pretty tight. To make up for it I'll give you a nice picture.



Chicago

September 17, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

Mom and I made it in safe and sound last night. We are meeting Anne Pontius for a quick visit this morning and then will join the family for Anita's wake this afternoon. Sadie comes in this evening so Mom and I will be happy with hugs and baby kisses.



Happy birthday!

ALS Challenge

September 04, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

The teachers at Robbie's school were given the ALS ice bucket challenge.  Here's a shot of Robbie getting very wet!   



Back to School

August 27, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

We've been back in school for two weeks now. Robbie's loving his new school and has a great group of kids. Isa is doing great, settling in to 8th grade, and enjoying seeing all her friends again.
I've been working to get the wine bar open. We finally got our permit and started construction on Monday. I've been designing menus, ordering glasses and making endless to do lists.
Life is is busy and good.



Yayoe's Visit

August 15, 2014 by Adam in Cortez

Yayoe asked me to post a couple pictures of her trip.  Here's a brief update:


This is the living room of the Cortez home in Chimayo. The house is
beautiful and reflects the Santa Fe style of architecture. Everyone is
thriving and looks great. Had a wonderful time staying with Hanni and
taking scenic tours with the family. Santa Fe is beautiful. I can see
why they live there and why they love their community.



Teenager!

Happy birthday Jordan! Welcome to the big time. Make sure you learn all the secret handshakes :)



Visit

August 10, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

We've really enjoyed having Yayoe here. we've dragged her all over Sante Fe and Chimayo, and tomorrow we're off to Los Alamos. Here's a picture of us at the Cathedral in Santa Fe.



Isabell's Arrival

July 31, 2014 by Adam in Cortez

I've been going through old video tapes, getting them all digitized for the future.  I have a few more to do, finally getting to things like the video of Sadie's friends hanging out and Isabell being born.  In any case, here's the greatly abridged version of Isabell's arrival:



Happy birthday Mom!

July 23, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

Here's a last sweet photo of Simon before I head back to NM!



So sweet!

June 20, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

I'm really excited to get back to Robbie and Isabell next week, but I think I'm now addicted to cute babies!



Happy Father's Day!

To Boston, to Boston!

June 01, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

I head out to Boston early tomorrow morning! If anyone needs to reach me I'll have a cell 505-423-0241.



Happy birthday!

May 27, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

Happy birthday Emma and Jenny! We're sending lots of birthday love and hugs your way!



Whew!

May 22, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

Well, I was offered, and accepted a new job!  I'll be the manager at the new wine bar up in Los Alamos (Vivac and 2 other wineries are opening it).  It's not slated to open until July, so I'll have some flexibility until then.  It will be nice to only work 5 days a week again (though that may not mean it's Sat/Sun off). The pay is better (though no benefits), and I'll be able to drive Isa up to school.  

Robbie is applying for a 1st grade position up there as well, so keep crossing your fingers for us!



Send your good thoughts this way!

May 19, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

I'm off to a job interview in a few hours. I'm loading up on lattes, hoping it will make the twitch in my eye go away! Wish me luck!



Happy Mother's Day!

May 11, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

Sending huge hugs to all of you!



Battle of the Books

April 05, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

We headed down to Silver City yesterday. We're staying in a remodeled 1930's Art Deco hotel in the old downtown. Last night Isa picked out a great little restaurant. It ends up that it's owned by a couple from OR, the wife of whom graduated with Sadie. Crazy!
This morning we were up early to register for BoB. Isa's team won 3 out of fur rounds,and had a great time. We walked around around this afternoon before heading back to the room to relax before dinner.



Birthdays!

January 22, 2014 by Seraph in Cortez

Happy birthday to the amazing Isabell and Joanna! Isa is groaning if I post anything to sweet, so just know that I'm really happy to have a teenage daughter!!
