This is my sister Laura and me on Hornby Island in British Columbia. Laura is 19 years old and goes to the University of Portland. Next year, she's studying in Salzburg, Austria. I get to visit her for Christmas :-)

These are my parents, Deb and Tim, on a hike in Arizona. My dad is an environmental scientist and my mom volunteers and does ceramics.

This is Nalin Satiravorakul (aka Jean), our exchange student from Bangkok, Thailand. She is here until June, and plans to come back to the US for Graduate school and then become an accountant.

Maggie has been my family's dog since I was in Kindergarten. Her favorite food is cheese and she loves taking long walks on the beach and getting back rubs.
