I’m not sure what got into me, but I decided to do some tree trimming. I cut down some branches trying to keep the trees around the house under control and away from things like power lines. While I spent lots of time outside, Danelle was busy working on one of her jeans quilts. This … Continue reading “October – 2021”
Both the kids were going to the Friendship Dance this year. Neither had dates and were just going with their friends to hang out. Here is a quick glimpse into their night. First Corvin spent some time getting ready and didn’t want to get his fancy clothes dirty while he was preparing. Sonora and her … Continue reading “Friendship Dance – 10/8/2021”
August has come and gone. Some of our random stuff. Corvin Sonora Kids being silly! I met another unicyclist on Grant’s Trail! I walked from my house downtown to the arch. Was a 14 some mile day 🙂 We met Laura downtown for dinner. And sorry to disappoint, but no cat photos!

We purchased what strawberries they had left and brought them home. Then we invited Danelle’s parents over to help us make … Continue reading “Strawberry Syrup – 6/6/2021”
I’m not sure what prompts Corvin to do this, but he still randomly runs and jumps on my back. We were playing a round of disc golf this time. I’m glad I’m fit enough to still carry him and enjoy it. Danelle managed to capture this madness! Danelle very much enjoys the company of our … Continue reading “May 2021”
We purchased a chipper to help get rid of wood waste that we cut down on our new property. As an added bonus, we could use the chips as mulch and never have to purchase mulch again. First, a view of the area that we cleared out. It won’t look like much, but there were … Continue reading “We Got A Chipper – 5/8/2021”
The kids played in the Webster Groves High School Orchestra. I have 1 photo and video of the concert. Enjoy 🙂 Hogan Haake
We wanted to do a family activity today. We packed up some supplies and headed out to Waterfall to make breakfast and hang out. The menu was French Toast made on a camp fire with the dutch oven lid. If you’re wondering what I’m sitting on, it isn’t any type of a grave. Its the … Continue reading “Waterfall for Easter – 4/4/2021”
