Team Campbell

Many of you already know that I’m a lover of blue cheese. In fact, my lust for fungus-ridden old milk goes so far as to prefer consuming it directly from the brick . It’s really quite disgusting. Today at work , the cafeteria ran out of blue cheese dressing. Normally, this wouldn’t...

I can’t believe it! Bethany is six months old. Every parent I know tells me to enjoy the first year, that it goes by so quickly. I always nod in agreement, but it never seems to sink in. Until now… I knew she would grow quickly, but I never thought she’d be noticeably taller this week...

Grandma and Grandpa Campbell (and Maggie, too) come to visit Bethany on a regular basis. On these visits, we do all sorts of fun things, like going out to dinner and mending fences. In between activities, there's lots of time for cuddling. And Bethany is looking forward to the day when she's big enough...

As many of you already know, I have accepted a position at Microsoft . As a result, Team Campbell is Seattle -bound. To be honest, moving so far from the area where we've spent a large part of our lives is frightening, but it's the right thing to do. The family benefits, job security, and economic stability...

Yep. That's our dog. Bursting with personality, Foster is clearly everyone else's favorite member of our family. At least, he thinks so. When you come to visit us, he assumes you've come to see him, that your only purpose for coming is to throw his " red orb of happiness ." I should mention...
