We made our first ever trip to Ikea. It was going to be a nice break from all the rain outside with a chance to walk around and see something new. The kids didn’t waste any time at the start dressing up with the clothes provided. This was about the last fun they had for … Continue reading “Ikea – 12/26/2015”
Christmas day had great weather and we decided to take advantage of it. We headed out to Rockwoods Reservation to hike the Lime Kiln trail. The trail head for this hike is hard to miss. The start has a large lime kiln. The weather was perfect, and we had a good time exploring and goofing … Continue reading “Christmas Hike – 12/25/2015”
So my “new” truck was broke. Lucky for me, my college roommate, Sean came to the rescue. He and family came to St. Louis and picked up the truck, towing it back to Jefferson City. One week later, I’m in Jeff City with Sonora at his house working to pull the engine and put a … Continue reading “Fixing the Truck – 11/7/2015”
Sonora had a Spotlight singer concert tonight. We were lucky enough to have some grandparents in attendance. Even more fortunate that we sat on the correct side to see Sonora performing right next to our seats! After the lovely concert was over, we went over to the Brown’s house so the kids could hang out … Continue reading “Sonora Spotlight Singer Concert – 10/22/2015”
We purchased a few acres of land on the Big River in Hillsdale, MO a few days ago. This is our first family trip out to our property, Waterfall, since our purchase. We walked around to check it out as owners. We got a few snaps near the water. It didn’t take Danelle long … Continue reading “Family Trip to Waterfall – 10/18/2015”
Okay, I swear this is the last time for a while that I do this ride! I went with Eric Ent from work and Sonora on the back of my bike. We tried to get his sister to join us, but she couldn’t make it. We made a slight variation on the last two rides, … Continue reading “Two Ferry Ride Again – 9/13/2015”
I had gone on the Two Ferry Ride the previous day, but it wasn’t enough. I have two kids and they both need time with their dad. So Sonora and I took off for a recap of the same ride. I got more seat time in and more kid time. Everybody wins, including Sonora, just … Continue reading “Two Ferry Ride Again – 9/7/2015”
We went out to Danelle’s parents land “Farm” for an overnight visit. On the way out of town, we picked up Grandpa Henry to go with us. When we invited him, he quickly stated that he had nothing more important going on and was going with us 🙂 After picking him up, we loaded some … Continue reading “Boeckmann Farm – 9/5/2015”
Race for the Rivers is an annual event benefiting the Greenway network. We’ve been racing in this event since 2011. Since I do other races during the year, this is Danelle’s time to paddle. I’m just here to support her. I also take tons of photographs. To see the rest of the album, hop over … Continue reading “Race For The Rivers – 8/29/2015”
Corvin joined a soccer team in the fall. The first game they played was in pouring rain and got cancelled due to lightning. This game was more pleasant, so I got the camera out for it. While the team was doing warm-ups, I captured bi-planes flying at the nearby Spirit of St. Louis airport. Sonora … Continue reading “Corvin Outdoor Soccer – 8/29/2015”
