Living the Hybrid Life

Sunday, September 5th, 2021

As we adapted to life co-existing with the COVID-19 virus, the first eight months of 2021 brought tremendous milestones in our kids’ lives. Allyndreth graduated from high school, Tyrian moved to Monterey to work and go to school at Cal State University Monterey Bay, and Evya had a career-best swim season.

Please view our albums in the Living the Hybrid Life series for the highlights of the year thus far.

2020: The Second Act

Wednesday, January 13th, 2021

Our sheltered existence continued in the Fall bringing us more distance learning, more sequestered celebrations, and Tyrian’s return from Vancouver. You can read about Tyrian’s harrowing escape from Canada in the pandemic roadtrip story.

Browse the new albums added to the series Behind the Mask chronicling the second half of 2020.

In February, we continued with our plan for the year by moving Tyrian to Vancouver to start film school.

But as they say, life is what happens when you’re making other plans.  To chronicle our time during the pandemic, we’ve started a series of albums called Behind the Mask.

Farewell 2019! 2020, here we come!

Monday, January 13th, 2020

The second half of 2019 was packed with activities!  Our Summer included swim season, a trip to England, and big family events like Evya’s 10th birthday.

Our Fall had the usual Halloween festivities, a visit from the North Carolina Engelbrechts, and a trip to Disneyland.

The Winter celebrations brought Matt and Tyrian’s birthdays, Christmas with family, New Years, and a trip to Tahoe.

Check out our seven new albums!

Graduation and Gallivanting

Saturday, June 22nd, 2019

Thus far, 2019 has had nary a dull moment.  With the usual and unusual school and extracurricular activities, we also had a splendiferous trip to Hawaii as well as Tyrian’s high school graduation.  You can also see all the albums on our main gallery page.
