New Beginnings

Visiting my family in Bryan (A&M College Station) is something I always look forward to. It's a time when I can leave things in San Antonio behind for a few days, and enter a home where I often find new ideas and purpose, returning home with a new beginning. Lately, there have been new beginnings for my family, too:


Celebrating my Dad's 60th birthday.


Laurie plans for a baby boy while Eva, 18 months, runs at me.


Taking a ride in the van.


Coincidental matching dresses.


A tree hundreds of years old outside the historic new home of my cousin Susan and Dave Fox.




Sister Lisa with Kathryn.


Dad teaches Sophie how to play the guitar.
