It was HOT here this weekend. 90 degrees on saturday! We sat in the yard dreaming of the summer, when our dirt pile of a yard will be a beautiful garden.

And today--rainy, cold, yucky.

How are things with the new little G??

Lily is about to roll!

Joining this Blog!!

Hi all, this is a good idea. Great way to stay in touch and hear from everyone. Great pictures of Lily and her Uncle Dan. Georgie III is adorable, and so is Hailey and Erica, of course.
Love and hugs to all.

This should be a great way to keep in touch! Jay and I just got back from Portland, Oregon where I had a conference. The weather was a bit rainy, but it's always fun to explore a new city. It's good to be back in sunny San Diego!

Sounds good to me.... we're in!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lily is so darn cute!!!!

And yes I admit...I'm terrible at sending pics to everyone so this is great!!! Love You

Welcome to Coast2Coast blog!

Hi folks!
I've set up a blog to make it easier for the family to share information and photos with each other. I've stolen this idea from Joe's family. The Sturges's have a blog and it has been really easy to post a quick message with a photo and know that other people will check in now and then to get the news from each other around the county. Much easier than email and attachments, i think. Give it a try and let me know. I've invited the following to post messages:

ileana, ray, joanna, jason, vivian, tara, george jr, sarah, toni, thomas, rise, alison, rob

Who else wants in? Just forward the invitation to them. Also, You can send the blog address to anyone you want to view it.

Today Lily is four months old. You can click on each picture to see them larger.



Below are some instructions on how to post to the blog:

1) Go to www.blogger.com

2) Sign in where it says "new blogger." If you don't have a Gmail account, you'll have to create one. Then type in your email and password and click "sign in"

3) This brings you to the dashboard - click on "new post" (it has a green cross next to it).

You just start writing -- give yourself a title and start to write. Add pictures by clicking on the little picture icon above and to the left of the box where you write text.

If you aren't done or not sure if you liked what you wrote you can simply click on "save as draft". If you want to see what it looks like, you can click on "preview".

When you are all done -- click on "publish"

You can add "labels" or categories at the right lower corner.

4) If you have saved something as draft, then next time you are at the dashboard you can click on "edit" and finish the posting. Also you can change your blog postings at any time you want, in case you see a typo or something. It's really easy.

I think that is all...have fun!
