What a busy fun month! Lets look back at some of the memories. I remember picking up the kids from school one night and Sonora was especially sad. I had some shopping I wanted to do and asked her to come along with me. I figured some one on one time with her would help … Continue reading “February – 2013”
More flags more fun? At least the kids think so. This is our first family trip to Six Flags ever, let alone since we moved to St. Louis. It isn’t that far from home. The kids don’t look excited in the photo before we entered the park, but I promise we had trouble keeping them … Continue reading “6 Flags – 8/13/2012”
All of the things that just didn’t have enough oomph for their own album, but deserve some recognition… One of the kids favorite people is Erin Fee. She watched the kids before they were old enough for school. In fact, Danelle and I have never had a single occasion to say or think anything unfavorable … Continue reading “July – 2012”
Sonora wanted to have her birthday at her favorite place, Hammer’s (Formerly Incredible Pizza Company). The four of us went on Tuesday after work. It wasn’t too busy.

Thumbelina is in the Guinness World Records as the smallest horse in the world! She is not quite a foot and a half tall. The kids also … Continue reading “Corvin and Sonora Meet Thumbelina! – 8.15.11”
On Monday mornings in the late spring and through the summer, I help a group of researchers form the World Bird Sanctuary capture birds in special nets at the ecology center where I work. On one of these mornings, I was fortunate to be able to bring Corvin and Sonora with me. They watched while … Continue reading “Corvin and Sonora Catch Birds with Danelle – 8.15.11”
Sonora got her wish of having her birthday at Chuck E Cheese this year. It wasn’t one of those “official parties where they come out and sing to you, but just an informal gathering of family and friends. She got to have her cake and eat it too. One of the kids favorite rids is … Continue reading “5.15 Sonora’s 5th Birthday”
We travled to Kansas City this year to celebrate Easter. Grandma Pat started off the wonderful weekend by taking the kids to the “Ball Museum” (Wonderscope Children’s Museum). They always love going there with grandma to play. Aunt Holly decided to join them. After the trip to the museum, Hannah had PROM that night for … Continue reading “Easter and Prom 4.23”
