The day after Sonora’s concert, Corvin had one of his own. Danelle and Sonora decided to warm up by the fire before we went into the concert. Glad they didn’t burn themselves! Unfortunately, Corvin plays the bass and we often forget to bring the good camera, so you can’t really see him in the back … Continue reading “Corvin’s Orchestra Concert – 12/14/2016”
Laura wanted to check out Tilles Park’s Winter Wonderland. We decided it would be best to visit on a carriage. So we split a large carriage and invited Josh and Jen to join us.

I wanted to ride the Chain of Rocks bridge for some time and the weather was decent. I packed up Corvin and Sonora along with snacks and hot chocolate and set out.

But if you want to hear the concert, the music is quite good! Hogan … Continue reading “Corvin’s Concert – 11/10/2016”
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.

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”
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”
