About Us

After a significant amount of badgering, Dave has convinced me to keep a blog for our little family, the Hill’s. Admittedly, the arrival of a certain little someone (a.k.a. the Bean) was the real inspiration for this blog. After all, who (other than our moms) would want to read about the daily happenings in our mundane lives?? But add a baby into the mix, and now we have endless material for blogging.

For those who don’t know what a BLOG is…welcome to the 21st century! A blog is short for web-log…apparently saying the “we” in weblog took too much energy, so it got shortened to blog. Are we lazy or what??

Anyway- thats what this is. Now, who are we??? Basically, we are just a couple of twenty-somethings figuring out life and enjoying the beginning of our own little family. Dave is the foundation of our family…he works for the government as a computer engineer. Top Secret stuff, not allowed to say anything else!  Seriously, I am not 100% sure exactly what he does for his job, but I know it involves a lot of technology and computer stuff. In addition to playing with electronic gizmos, Dave enjoys hiking and camping in Shenandoah. And then there is me, Sarah (maiden name Sarah Vignes). I have taken on the role of entertaining our friends and family as the primary blogger (at least for now). Currently, I spend my time wandering the hospital wards, pretending to be a doctor. I will graduate from GW medical school in May of 2007 and I’m planning to go in to surgery. So, much like a cameleon, I change my color based on my scenery…I am a medical student by day, and a wife/mom etc. by night. Easy enough! Admittedly, I am not very good at all of the stuff that a normal wife would do, but thats OK. I am comfortable with my lack of domestic skills.

Bryson is quite possibly the cutest little drooly baby ever (ok, maybe I am a little biased, but he is definitely in the running). He was born almost 4 weeks early, on August 25th, 2006. He started out a little on the small side (5lbs) , but has been steadily catching up.  Of course, Bryson isn’t our only kiddo. Our first 3 babies are rather furry and all have red and white hair. Chase and Gracie are the two corgis. They bark too much, but they love to snuggle and are super swimmers/hikers. Despite all of their barking, they make me happy. Tiger, is the big red kitty. He is by far the most tolerant of all the baby noises and gear.

Here are some photos of our family…
