March 2017
March seemed like an especially long month this year — perhaps because it follows the shortest month of the year, or perhaps because we packed so much into this month. We started the month working hard to finish up the remodeling work on our house and get it ready to sell. We spent a few…

February 2017
Lots of day-to-day life this month. Remodeling work still in progress at our house, see pictures at the end of the album. We are back at Park Victoria Baptist Church and have started to get reconnected. One of the ways is through going out for lunch with two other couples after Sunday service. We all…

January 2017
Another month in another year has past. We have fully entered 2017. We celebrated Anthony’s first birthday this month! We made a pre-birthday trip down to Carlsbad to celebrate with Grandparents Powers. Tim also did a half marathon while in Carlsbad. We are settling back into no more traveling for a while and starting to…

2016 has come to an end. Looking back over the past year, it has been full of changes and challenges – opportunities for God to grow us and make us realize and remember our dependence on Him. It has also been filled with love and support – times to share and enjoy life together both…

November 2016
A Happy (Belated) Thanksgiving to all. Anthony turned 10 months on Thanksgiving day and we spent the holiday with Alicia’s family. Alicia and the kids spent 2/3 of November down in Carlsbad. Unfortunately, Tim’s business trip to Singapore got canceled but Alicia had already gone down, so Tim was up in San Jose by himself…

October 2016
No major events this month. We had a family outing to a pumpkin patch with the MOPS group in mid-October. As October comes to an end, the first rainy days have arrived. The turn towards colder weather seems to call for snuggling inside under blankets, but with two young kids around, that’s not really practical. …

September 2016
Lots of pictures this month from our family trip to the mountains and Alicia’s visit to Carlsbad. We took our first family camping trip sleeping in a tent over Labor Day weekend. We don’t have any pictures from that due to us chasing the kids around the whole time. Once Anthony is walking and stops…

August 2016
“What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun.” Ecc 1:9 The family updates have been getting lengthy over the past few months, so we shall return to simplicity. We were in San Jose for the whole month of…

July 2016
This month we have been trying to settle back in to “normal” life. We enjoyed reuniting in Carlsbad for 4th of July, with Tim returning from Taiwan and Cordelia completing her week of “camp grandma”. After a week of visiting with the Powers clan we all returned to San Jose to be together for the…

June 2016
Another month of travel and excitement. Tim made it back from Korea; Alicia and the Kids made it back from San Diego. We were together for two weeks before Tim got back on a plane for Taiwan this time. During those two weeks Aunt Kelly came for a visit and we celebrated Fathers’ Day. After…
