Wanna see something authome? Check out the following link. It is a video of Timber and I and a group of friends launching our sea kayaks for a weekend paddle from Waipio Valley to Wamanu. It was a great trip...the launch was exciting!!! The commentator mentions that they weren't set up to film the first launch where a boat did and end-over-end. That was me... you get to see my second attempt which went much smoother.

Love love lOvE
Our good friend Lindsay (from the Chico State and Outward Bound Days) recently announced her engagement to Jason. I am so excited for these beautiful people. I hope your future overflows with love. Best Wishes!
Happy Birthday Dad
This week my dad celebrated his 68th birthday. Isn't he a handsome man! He is very ill right now; he's battling stomach cancer. Unfortunately, he was in the hospital for his birthday...his big gift...a blood transfusion.
I hope this year, his 69 circle around the sun, gives him reprieve from this disease. I hope he gets to meet his granddaughter and I hope he gets to enjoy his beautiful yard and his recently retired wife.
I love you so much dad. Happy Birthday!

Happy New Year
Here's to 2009...to more friends visiting, house remodeling, a booming yoga studio, to Miley Rain joining the family, to wellness, and love. We wish you all the best in 2009.
Miley Rain grew a heap in December. I've been able to feel her dancing around in my belly for the past couple weeks. At dinner the other night, my sister was the first person to feel Miley move by placing her hand on my tummy. It is so fun and exciting. Timber and I are going to be parents in 2009. Wow!

Twilight
Timber and I both teach Jr High School students. I've seen all of my female students go gaga over the book Twilight. I'd seen the previews for the movie (recently released) and wrote the whole thing off as a high school epidemic. Until...
Timber has quite a reader in his class. They connect with each other by sharing books. Often time Timber will roll his eyes while reading saying, "This one is for kids." However, after his student gave him Twilight, he read the book with very few eye rolls.
I got a cold last week and picked up the book while I was confined to the couch. I read it in the two days it took my body to fight off the grimies.
WE ARE HOOKED!
Ya see, there is a series of 4 books. The student had all of them and has graciously passed them on to us. Timber stays just a book ahead of me and has been keeping the secrets well. Here it is just 2 and 1/2 weeks later and I'm waiting for him to finish the last book so I can suck the blood out of it.
Baby Girl
Here we are with our bun in the oven. 
This photo was taken the second week of December while Dick Auth was visiting. It was just about that time when people started saying, "Oh, you are starting to show." So here she is...Miley Rain Auth.
We're in the 5th month of pregnancy and doing great. the nausea has passed. Thank goodness! I'm back to doing yoga and taking walks and treating Timber nicely.
