I just took a look at the new website design using Internet Explorer. It looks terrible, so I made this to show the difference:

The new family website design looks great on modern web browsers, like Firefox, but really bad on Microsoft’s outdated Internet Explorer.  That’s not to …

It was time to update the look of the site a little bit. I tried some orange colors for a day, but they were hard for me to read, so Ily and I came up with what you see now. The new top banner and standard blue links are much …

Reece turned one year old on Saturday. My parents came over and we got together with them and Melinda, Benj, and Jason to celebrate. Ily made a nice gift cake for Reece, who had a great time eating it (and so did the rest of us). The weather was rainy …
