Thanksgiving Day Camping – 11/24/2016
All of our Thanksgiving plans with family fell apart this year. We didn’t plan to out of town, so we improvised a last minute camping trip. It has been three years since our last Thanksgiving week camping adventure. The kids seemed to miss the camping this time of year. So we quickly shopped for food … Continue reading “Thanksgiving Day Camping – 11/24/2016”
Grants Trail – 11/20/2016
In an effort to get away, I took the kids out to bike on Grant’s Trail. It was a bit cold outside, so Sonora was quite bundled up. Corvin and I unicycled and he did a great job! And as a treat, we had hot chocolate out of the thermos when we finished our ride! … Continue reading “Grants Trail – 11/20/2016”
Corvin’s Concert – 11/10/2016
Corvin is playing the upright bass again this year. Here is a picture of the students at the concert. He is in the back and we just couldn’t get him in a photo. And the video turned out just as well. But if you want to hear the concert, the music is quite good! Hogan … Continue reading “Corvin’s Concert – 11/10/2016”
October – 2016
Sonora dressed up as a very creepy clown for the Avery Fall festival. But it was perfect for the haunted house! Danelle and Sonora spent a day at Six Flags. And Corvin is getting much better at his unicycle. He went on a 4 mile ride with me. So we had to stop for Ice … Continue reading “October – 2016”
Broken Window – 11/14/2016
When I got into my van this morning, I didn’t realize how cold it was, the back window had a ton of frost on it that I could see in the mirror. But as I sat down, I heard a noise that changed my mind and saddened me at the same time. Somebody had broken … Continue reading “Broken Window – 11/14/2016”
KC Visit – 11/5/2016
We came into Kansas City to visit family. It was a rare weekend when Corvin didn’t have a soccer game and we took full advantage of it. Corvin and Sonora were most excited to meet Heidi, the new puppy. Planning ahead, I brought my unicycle and had a nice ride with Herman. I couldn’t get … Continue reading “KC Visit – 11/5/2016”
Apple Cider – 10/29/2016
Josh and Jen invited us over to their house to make apple cider. Ok, the real goal was to get the juice so they could turn it into hard apple cider. But all good things take time and we needed to start with getting the juice out of the apples. Several of their friends showed … Continue reading “Apple Cider – 10/29/2016”
Sweet Potato Harvest – 10/24/2016
We had a large sweet potato in our kitchen that started sprouting in the summer. I was annoyed, so I took it outside and planted it in the ground. It just became a pet project of mine and I continued to water it all summer. I finally decided it was time and decided to see … Continue reading “Sweet Potato Harvest – 10/24/2016”
Waterfall Shelter Walls – 10/23/2016
One of the goals of the shelter we’re building at Waterfall is to have a place to store boats where they are not in the sun all of the time. We’re specifically planning on putting our two plastic boats out there. Plastic and exposure to the sun don’t mix! As you can see, we had … Continue reading “Waterfall Shelter Walls – 10/23/2016”
