Family in the Making



The cast and crew of Casa del Meyer, left to right, back row:

Colton: Son number one is really coming into his own. He has inherited from Seth, my brother, and my uncle, the uncanny ability of knowing the lyrics to virtually all songs regardless of era or genre upon first listen, and then can create parodies at the blink of eye. Sporty and quippy - this kid's going places.

Seth: AKA The Mister, Seth is my rock. Always there, stable, occasionally a PITA (it's what rocks do when you sit on 'em too long!), hardworking and very versatile. He is the human foundation of our family, seeing to it that no one's needs go unmet.

Moi: I have my own "about" page, so nothing more to see here. Except really cute hair. I was thrilled with it when we had this picture made.

Kelsey: Kelsey continues to be our parenting guinea pig as the oldest child. A therapy fund is in the works for that. Kelsey is our pun-loving, indie-pop resident artiste. She's also now technically an adult child.

Front row:

Christopher: Mah Baybee Boy. This kid is a crazy combo of fun, smarts, and heart. Think math and science wizard with the most sensitive and compassionate awareness of others, all while outrunning and outplaying everyone on the field in sports.

At Casa del Meyer, we do Jesus is real and we do really freaking loud. We do make-ups and timeouts, togetherness and laughter. We do candid honesty, awkwardness, and "Wow - I'm really glad you shared that." We do COFFEE and good food. We do hikes in the mountains and disc golf in the parks. We do rough and tumble, but also mending when tender and forgiving always.

They are my heart and soul.
