I was asked in May if I would be available to keynote the Microsoft Innovative Educator Expert summit in Auckland, New Zealand this July. At first, we weren’t sure about me going because there was a lot going on that weekend: JT had a baseball tournament and a birthday, and we were supposed to beContinue reading “Becky goes to New Zealand”

ISTE 2018 Chicago
I spent six days away from home last week attending the annual ISTE conference, this year held in Chicago. This is my fifth ISTE conference and it never ceases to amaze. A record-breaking 23,000 people attended this year! We arrived on Friday night and got settled – late due to weather delays all around theContinue reading “ISTE 2018 Chicago”
Lake Wilderness Tri 2018
I’ve been able to focus more on triathlon training this year since post-surgery recovery, and in January I started getting back into it. Six months of working out consistently totally paid off for my first triathlon of the summer! Jim came along to cheer me on so we got some photos too. Here I amContinue reading “Lake Wilderness Tri 2018”
Becky’s 38th Birthday
I woke up to a lovely homemade breakfast – yogurt berry parfaits and veggie-and-egg mini muffin cups. Jim did a great job with something healthy and yummy! Then he went to work, the kids went to school, and I went to spin class! I came home and worked a few hours and captured “me atContinue reading “Becky’s 38th Birthday”
E2 Singapore
I got a little behind on posting… probably because I have been gone so much in the past three weeks. Three weeks ago, I took a day trip to LA for work. Then on March 9, I left for an eight-day trip to Singapore for my favorite event of the year, E2. It’s when 300+Continue reading “E2 Singapore”
A little work trip
This week, I had two meetings for work that needed to be face-to-face instead of over Skype: one in Cherry Creek, Colorado, and the other in Long Beach, California. I was able to schedule them back-to-back to minimize my time away from home, and it was a whirlwind trip! I left late Monday night andContinue reading “A little work trip”
Becky gets LASIK
I’m not shouting… it is an acronym: LASIK. Jim has been telling me I should get LASIK done ever since he did, twelve years ago. Finally, I decided to go get a consultation last September. I was tired of getting water under my contacts when splashing with the kids in the pool or lake, orContinue reading “Becky gets LASIK”
Christmas Dinners
I had back-to-back Christmas dinners this week. Monday was our church’s women’s Christmas event. I invited my mom, my mother-in-law, my sister-in-laws, my niece, three ladies from my neighborhood, and a friend who is new to our church. We ended up with quite a fun group! The food was good, the speakers were wonderful, andContinue reading “Christmas Dinners”
Blogiversary
I’ve been blogging here for 10 years. (What?!) I have over 900 posts and over 56,000 page views, which means each post has been seen an average of 62 times. That’s crazy! I started this blog in 2007 when I found out I was pregnant with JT as a way to keep our story, andContinue reading “Blogiversary”
Knee Surgery #2
Eighteen months ago, I had knee surgery on my right knee. Last week, I had the same procedure done on my left knee. Much of the details are the same, even the photos inside… although this time, my surgeon said there was some evidence my knee cap dislocated at some point. So that’s a bummer!Continue reading “Knee Surgery #2”
