Weekend Project

After a week or so of talking about it I finally made a teepee for Caleb and the girls to play in. The whole think blew down 5 minutes after covering it the first time so I had to improvise. There are still a little items to address but, the concept is completed. Did you know duct tape came in YELLOW?

Camp Michindoh Time

For the 3rd straight year Hannah spent a week at Camp Michindoh with Fusion from Cedar Creek. She had a blast and for the first year had no major injuries or illnesses while at camp. Above is a photo of Hannah in the crowd at one of the many group events. Below you see Hannah and the rest of her cabin mates. I'm not sure what they were doing but, it looks impressive.

Grand Canyon Trip 2009

Grace is TWO!

Mom, Dad and Hannah arrived just in time to celebrate Grace's 2nd birthday at Nana's. We were all happy to see each other after a long week apart. Watch as we sing happy birthday to her. She loves to sing. Unfortunately for her, Grace got a little too close to the candles as she tried to blow them out. No harm.

Vacation Update from Flagstaff, AZ

We are on day 4 of our vacation and we find ourselves in Flagstaff, AZ. We Spent the first 2 days in Las Vegas and yesterday we paddled 12 miles of the Colorado River after starting from the base of the Hoover Dam. We had to get permits to launch in the restricted location. It was breath taking and butt kicking. We spent the night in a Cabin, it sounds better than it was, near Lake Mead. Today we visited a Ranch, panned for gold. We actually found some gold flakes. We took a "short cut" down a 30+ mile dirt road before intersecting historic Route 66 which took us to our present location. Tomorrow Hannah and Jamey are going horseback riding in Kiabab National Forest outside of Grand Canyon National Park. I am planning on some hiking while they ride. We will spend the next 2 days in the Park and will returned to Vegas for a day and a half. It has been great but, exhausting. I wouldn't have it any other way. Here are a few sneek peeks of our photos.

Hannah's Big Trip

After hundreds of hours gleaming at our PC monitor we are finally almost ready to depart for "Hannah's Big Trip". For several month Jamey and I, mostly Jamey, have be planning a trip for Hannah, her and I. We hope to spend some quality time with her while she still "wants" to. We have literally looked from the Northwest in Alaska down the Caribbean in Dominica before we found a stop that fit most of Hannah's priorities. Horses, Volcanoes and Adventure. On Monday we fly to Las Vegas for three days, then to Arizona and finally to the Grand Canyon Village. We still have bags to pack and final reservations to nail down so wish us luck and keep us in your prayers. Not necessarily for our safety, rather our sanity after the draining task of planning a vacation on a budget for a teenager.
