We would like this blog to encapsulate exactly what the title refers to. The "memoirs", the memories, the observations and the life experiences that occur at Burke Manor. Why Burke Manor, you ask? Anytime someone new would come to visit our home Josh would always say, "welcome to Burke Manor". It just sort of stuck so now we have, "The Memoirs of Burke Manor".

Move it, Move it....
This year in 2011 there are going to be a lot of firsts for myself (Jadey). Obviously I am a new mom and that is going to bring a lot of firsts. However 2011 is going to be the year of "moving". No, Josh and I are not moving away. This year I have decided to become more active and mobile. Therefore I am going to attempt to run two races this year. I am not planning on doing any crazy Triathlons I will leave those to Josh. I do however plan on running a 1 mile race in March and either the July 4th 5 miler or the Turkey Trot in November. I am setting my goals low it is true, however if I accomplish them they will be big for me. When I was diagnosed with MS in 2008 I had no way of knowing what was to come. MS takes movement away from people that is pretty much all I know for sure. I am not sure what is in store in the future for me with my health. However, right now I can move so I don't want to take that for granted. Therefore my goal for 2011 is two races and to at least finish them.. Josh and I are also taking up Fly Fishing. I love to fish and haven't done much of it since getting married. Josh is not one for sitting quietly on the river bank or in a canoe casting for hours. So Fly Fishing seems as though it will be something we both can enjoy and we hope to get a few lessons from Colby Garman. So those are the new "movements" we will attempt in 2011 I hope to report back next January that they were all successful.
