Welcome to Sawtelle 3.0

Sawtelle 3.0 It has two meanings actually:
I grew up in a family that lagged behind a bit when it came to being "up-to-date" with technological advances. Our idea of an internet upgrade was passively waiting on the newest (free) AOL disc to show-up in our mailbox - I believe we got to 9.0 before we finally ditched dial-up.
While Kelly and I wouldn't say that we "lag behind" with technological advances, we have come to grips that we are still a little out-of-the-loop of many multimedia social networks - some by choice (no interest is MySpace, Twitter and I vowed to fight the Facebook craze and never join...still going strong) and some because we just knew very little about them. One of these was the art of "blogging". To be honest, blogging never really made sense to me - until now.
You see, the 3.0 is also the incredible "upgrade" that our family received when Arden Rose came into our lives on December 29th, 2009. She is the main reason we are starting this blog. Since Kelly's family lives in GA and my family recently moved to WY (not to mention my large extended family in NH) - we wanted to give them, and any of our friends, a chance to catch quick glimpses into what's going on with the three of us. We love her more than we can even express, and are so thankful to God for her.
We hope that you will enjoy these brief updates.
