Happy Valley Vacay
First of all – what has happened bloggers? It seems like nobody is updating and nobody is commenting. I worry that people are too busy facebooking and tweeting to blog. LAME. I love blogs the best. Sooo if you are still reading this – speak up! I’m feeling neglected. But either way – this is…

It’s a Cox Thing
Well, we did it again. We loaded up the car and drove to Yosemite where we camped for a week, in the dirt, in tents, with kids – including a 5 month old. We’ve done this almost every year since we’ve been married. It’s a Cox family tradition, that has turned into a sort of…

Christmas Vacation
I have to be honest here, I want to hurry and get this post out of the way so I can go read more of the vampire books that I am shamelessly in love with. (Thank you Wendy!) I’m talking about the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. I’m halfway through New Moon and have only…

Let Us Give Thanks
Let us give thanks that we made it safely up and back to Fresno without any troubles or traffic, and that the kids were pretty well behaved for the trip. Let us also give thanks that the kids and Dad were healthy for the all the Thanksgiving festivities – even though Mom is still fighting…
