Team Espinoza

Took a lunch break stroll today with my little man. He’s getting better at walking every day.

I’m having lunch downtown with JD today and he just happens to office in the Weston Center – the site of Amanda and my wedding seven years ago. Riding down the elevator from the parking garage into the lobby where the reception was held I remembered the excitement and nervousness I felt that day. I [...]

I started to write a post last night, but as I was picking out photos to blog they all became fuzzy and ran together in my head. So I gave up and went to go see who got kicked off American Idol instead. Then I would be able to return to my social media habit. [...]

The stomach bug hit our house this weekend. I was in bed all day Saturday recovering. Daniel took the kids to his parents while I stayed home slurping gatorade and nibbling toast. It was nice to have a nap without the kids being my alarm clock. Although, a text from Daniel asking if Annabelle could [...]

Today was an odd day. Daniel, myself and the kids were certainly dragging this morning after a fun day on Sunday eating at Salt Lick and walking the Austin Trail of Lights. As I was strategizing to attack my To Do list I called my mother-in-law, Felicia. She told me that her brother (and our [...]

I hope you can look back on your 2008 with satisfaction and look forward to 2009 with excitement.   Get out there and do something you’ve never done before.   Let 2009 be the year “it” happens; whatever “it” may be. Here’s some thoughts to get you going. “The successful person makes a habit of doing what [...]

This morning my Uncle Manuel Espinoza passed away.  He was my dad’s younger brother, the second of the six siblings.  This was totally unexpected and the family is pretty stunned. On the way to the hospital I told my sister that I wish I could turn my phone ringers off when I go to bed [...]
