It’s been eight years since Ty and I met, and we’ve been bouncing back and forth between Hawaii and Seattle as if we own stock in the airlines, but after a couple houses, and a baby, and some nervous laughter, Ty and I have decided to make if officially official. We’re getting married in September […]

Mountains to Sea
After five days in Whistler on a writer’s retreat I came home for a day and now I fly out tonight for Hawaii to join my two Gurney guys there. I’m really looking forward to getting some sun and swimming in the ocean and just soaking up Hawaii’s beauty. I need it after the hectic […]
Mac and Max
Getting ready to head to airport and it amazes me how much an almost two year old needs for a trip! Or maybe, it’s all the stuff I need to entertain a two year old on an airplane! Either way, it seems like we have a lot between cars and toys and snacks and diapers […]
Gladiator For a Day
I have my very own gladiator and he was amazing in battle. Two weeks ago Surfer Ty and my boys attended “Gladiator School” in Rome and Surfer Ty was pretty amazing. He’s always been a fighter–he’s something of a legend in San Diego–but watching him fence with his gladiator instructor wowed me. Ty only needed […]
Home from Rome
It was an amazing ten days in Italy and a rather hard jolt back to reality when I woke up yesterday morning at 3:00 am and couldn’t go back to sleep due to jet lag. There was so much to do but Mac wanted Mommy to himself, away from the phone and computer and stacks […]
Hello from Positano!
Just a few lines as I have a line behind me waiting to use the computer at the internet cafe (should have brought my laptop!) but its been gorgeous here in Italy–perfect weather, 70 degrees, blue sky, lots of sun. We flew from Sicily this morning to Naples, toured Pompeii for several hours and then […]
Taking Off
Heading to airport in a few minutes and am leaving computers behind. Will try to check email now and then from an internet cafe but as this trip is all about enjoying Italy and my guys I’m not really worried about business at all. This will be a real vacation–no work, no writing, no blogging […]
Little Bear Love
I’m leaving my littlest guy behind for 11 days soon while I take my big boys to Sicily and then the Amalfi Coast. We were supposed to be heading to Egypt with my mom and sister but the unrest and political changes in Egypt made me rethink our decision to cruise the Nile and visit […]
New Orleans
This is a shorty blog as I’m writing fast and furious today and I’ve three boys sick with the flu. 🙁 But before we were hit with the flu last week, and before Surfer Ty returned to Hawaii, we had our own little Mardi Gras party on Wednesday night. We wore green, gold and purple […]
California, Here I Come!
Tomorrow morning Ty Gurney, Mac and I jump on a plane for Fresno, California so I can make a book club event in Visalia Wednesday night and then Thursday morning we race down to Southern California for 4 more days of book events. I’ve got a very fun 5 pm Happy Hour for my readers […]
