Cape Cod

 One of the things we all miss, is living an hour away from the pacific ocean. Lots of people here go to the coast for the ocean, 3 hours or more away. I was attending a meeting at a different college and the whole fam decided to join me so that we can spend one night at the cape before it got to cold (or we got too busy!) It was incredibly beautiful. 

Our national parks pass has been getting some real usage this year! Race Point Beach is the first spot the sun hits as it rises (or for you exact folx, as we spin). We went to watch the sunrise and had the whole beach to ourselves! Then we saw seals and whales. 




























And you know we had to have lobster rolls and shrimp and fish! And NY style pizza...and ice cream! This ice cream shop had a ton of vegan flavors, perfect for Matt.

This evening Cassidy revealed to me a small secret to keeping her occupied. After dinner she asked me if she could watch a show. We don't have tv, but we do have netflix through the wii on our tv and we watch all the greatness that PBS and Nickelodian have to offer! Except for Caillou because I think he's kind of whiny. Anyway, she gets to watch limited amounts of Diego, Dora, Dinosaur Train, Super Why, Word World, etc and sometimes we throw in some Cosby Show for good measure.

She went into her room and as she started putting toys away, she started playing with them. She'd go to put books away and start "reading" them. Twenty minutes later she'd start putting crayons away, then start drawing with them. Ten minutes later she'd start putting awa...

Dancing

Cassidy loves to dance. So far, any type of music gets her going! In this video we were cleaning the kitchen when she decided to break out. When she saw the camera she started saying cheese because she thought it was a real camera. I hope you can see it!

NASPA @ NOLA 2025

I am very excited to get to serve on the annual conference team for NASPA 26 in KC! As part of the planning team, we have several onsite meetings. One is at this year's conference to be in transition with this year's team. Several of my staff members were able to attend the conference as well. Below are some photos with friends and colleagues who I was so happy to reconnect with!  The rest are notes I took from a few sessions. I as going to delete them, then thought, y'all might be interested in some of the random things always on my mind and in process. Take a peek! Also, NASPA stands for National Association of Student Personnel Administrators. While there opportunities all year long to engage with different groups and regions, in person and online, the annual conference is the premier event where you can learn and hang out with over 6,500 of your peers in higher ed work!  Notes: The balance of crisis management and change management is ongoing. Rest is essential. Decisio...
