New Home
Toto, we aren’t in Grenada anymore. This twister called medical school has picked us up and dropped us in Redlands, CA. And after the dust has settled, I am so happy we can call this beautiful place home for the next two years. As I write, kids are giggling and splashing at the pool just … Continue reading
Taking his First “Step”
On July 17th, it was go time. Two years of medical school plus 69 days of relentless studying must now leak out onto an 8-hour test that would determine David’s professional possibilities FOREVER. No pressure, right? I am embarrassed to say that the last thing I said before he disappeared into the testing center was, “Did you … Continue reading
How Does Your Garden Grow?
Years ago, my dad built four cinder block planters for his soon to be expansive garden. Years of eggshell tossing and roto-tilling later, his precious soil had nourished hundreds of tomatoes, peppers, onions, carrots and corn. This year, dad gave a whole planter to my brother for his “Halloween Pumpkin” and little peppers. Leaping from … Continue reading
Home is Good for the Soul

That long strip of 35-mile-per-hour asphalt has rolled beneath my tires through more late night dates, trips to work, the beginning of adventures with friends and the end of weary days of both work and school. I could never tell all the stories that road … Continue reading

After two years of constant change and moving, the convenience that comes with home almost feels weird. I mean, isn’t life suposed to go all crazy on us soon? So far, America has been … Continue reading

Digging through the inbox I found a few pictures of our winter skiing adventure at Park City. It was only the second time I had strapped the “death … Continue reading
Baby You Can Drive my Car
While we were home in Reno, we took a little detour and ran straight into a traffic jam. These cars were not going anywhere any time soon. But, boy, they were fun to look at. The National Automobile Museum takes you on an automotive tour through time, housing hundreds of cars from the first horseless … Continue reading

These are a Few of my Favorite Things …
We have so much to be thankful for in the Glenn house this year. Here are a few of my favorite blessings: [oqeygallery id=17] 1. My Savior Jesus Christ: We were able to see the theatrical production of “The Savior of the World” on Temple Square with David’s family while we were in Utah. The two-and-a-half … Continue reading
2 Days, 9 Hours, 40 Minutes
While walking on the beach one day last week, and feeling particularly home sick, I found this little piece of sea glass. It is shaped like the state that I grew up in, the state that I love and the place I will always call home. I tried to position the little sun spot … Continue reading
