Florida sees its 12th DNA exonoree
Last week, James Bain was released from a Florida prison after serving 35 years for a crime he didn’t commit. DNA testing finally cleared Bain of raping a young boy in 1974. This means that the real perpetrator was free to victimize others.

Alyssa's creative Christmas decorations
She hung birch branches from the ceiling and then decorated the branches with ornaments and candles. Martha Stewart, move over!

Wanted to share ...
War is the favorite diversion of rulers who seek to draw attention away from troubles at home and re-direct it toward imaginary "enemies" abroad, and this familiar scenario is playing itself out once again – ironically, but unsurprisingly, during the presidency of a man who masqueraded as the "peace" candidate and an agent of "change."

If you are looking for Violet's birthday party pictures, I will post by Saturday
Violet's birthday pictures are on my computer at my house in Lake Elsinore and I am at Alyssa's right now. There are some really cute ones. I will post them as soon as I get back to Lake Elsinore.

Jake's first birthday
I thought some of this footage was funny, like when Ledge doesn't know how to share. When Jake wants his green truck in the beginning and Ledge is trying to keep it away from him, notice how Violet hands over her coloring books so her hands are free to intervene. Also funny when Ledge wants to ride the horse and starts screaming (he's the baby at HIS house). And, I love it in the end when Jake claps. He is SO, SO, SO, SO good and SO, SO, SO, SO cute!
