We are alive!!!!

So here is the scoop....

I didn't forget that I had a blog, but I currently have the most annoying problem on my computer right now... I CAN'T UPLOAD ANY PICTURES. Why do you ask does Amber always have problems with her computer?? Hmm... maybe because my little laptop has so much gosh darn stuff on it, that it's taken us literally MONTHS, to clean it all off. So now it is currently all cleaned off, but because both Taylor and I are not computer wizzes, we do not know what happened to the little part of my computer that allows me to add new photos to it. So I must take it in to get "looked at." (again)!!! So here is an update for you without pictures... :(

Yes, I did it, I ran the RAGNAR race (about a month ago). It was awesome, exhausting, sickening, and rewarding. I ran a total of 17 (ish) miles in about 24 hours. We are not exactly sure on the miles because each leg was not mapped correctly, but that was the round about mileage. We had a blast doing it, and I am currently thinking about doing it again. Pictures are to come of this event.

Dane- TURNED 1 YEAR OLD!!!! Pictures to come of this too! He's seriously is the cutest kid ever, and I pretty much want to gobble him up everyday (which I do because I'm mom and as mom I can do that right?)

Zoe- Seriously the cutest little 2 1/2 year old (minus her terrible-two's tantrums, sassiness, and plain old independence). I'm currently trying to read up on how to manage my little Angel and her sweet ways. If any of you have any suggestions on how to raise an almost 3 year old, I would be happy for some advice.

Taylor- Currently entering into his final rotations of his intern year yeah... and is going to be focusing on his specialty now... ENT (Ear, Nose and Throat) Head and Neck Surgery. For the past 9 months he's been doing all sorts of random stuff, but now that all those things are out of the way, he can finally start learning what we moved out here to do.

Things are busy, and full of adventure here, but we manage to keep our head above water and tread lightly when we can. Hope all of you are doing well.

Oh,good. That Arizona (or was it Nevada?) sun has not burned your family to a crisp and the wind blown away the ashes. Although if it wasn't the sun, I'm surprised it wasn't your marathon. You Polleis sure are resilient! Glad to hear you're doing well. As for the terrible two's - just hold your breath until it's over, although I think that really will be the kicker.

Buy an external hard drive and have a second place you keep everything...you can get one for around 150...a decent one at least...western digital is a great brand...

then take everything off and get your start up disks that you received when purchasing your computer and you can go through that and put on iphoto back on.

Hope this helps...

glad you are back...
more reading material to come for you! what are you reading now? love you
