Let's be in touch.

We can't fight it: technology is The New Way and it is essential for keeping in touch. Some of our extended family lives far away, but with family life its difficult to stay caught up with those of us that reside in the same city! We get stuck in our own bubbles, our mini-tragedies and victories. Many important and mundane details rule our family from dawn to dusk, and before you know it so much time has passed, a sad thing has happened: we are out of touch.

But with a computers in our homes, on our laps, and in our pockets, there is no reason why we can't put the effort into sharing the tastiest bits of our lives with you, dear ones, on a more steady basis (and in a more personal way than social networking.) Actually, it is easy once you accept the wonders of technology. Picking up the phone is hard (it is never quiet around here), writing letters seems archaic (I can rarely find a pen around here anyway), and traveling is next to impossible (we lack the time and the funds.) But please remember: We love you. We miss you. We think of you often.

So this family-only blog is an effort to stay in touch with you, dear ones, even if it is simply a touch of the keyboard.
