Pray for rain....lots of it.

For the second time in the last ten years, my home town of Los Alamos, New Mexico, is being evacuated due to a major fire. Last time around hundreds of homes burned to the ground, many just two blocks away from the house I grew up in.
Here is an e-mail I received from some sweet friends who are presently evacuating:
We have been through this before, and the good thing about it is it really puts the proper things in focus front and center-- God and our family.  We are at peace and trusting God. He is so good, and is caring for us.  We are taking with us the 6 "P's --people, pets, prescriptions, papers, pictures, and personal computers. And most importantly, the PEACE of God and PRAYER.
Jeff and I thought we might someday retire in LA. That is how much we love this town. 
I seriously love you, friends in Los Alamos!!!! Praying for rain and lots of it.

Who are you?

Every time I look at this blog I feel a bit guilty. I have not done an awesome job maintaining it recently. One of the reasons is that I get a bit overwhelmed at the number of subjects I post on. I have posted on our adoption, my kids, my husband, our numerous moves, crossfit and paleo (which are still a big part of my life), and, most recently, my music.

So, as I watch the blog traffic here, I wonder, who are you? Where are you from? Why do you read? PLEASE post a quick comment and let me know. I would love to hear from you!
