Jordan and I had a chance to go to a picnic with a whole bunch of limb different kids and their families this weekend. It was a lot like the impromptu gathering we had last year except this time it was a little further away from our house and we had even more families! It [...]

Swinging free

April 3rd, 2010 · No Comments · 2010, Outside

There’s something so remarkable about Spring. It’s a chance to just be who you are. The outdoors do that for all of us if you let it. What’s awesome about the outdoors and Jordan is she is attracted it to during all seasons. She’s happy to wander around in whatever the conditions. (Wet, snowy, windy) [...]

The weather was sunny and warm-ish enough on the day Randy and I returned home from our vacation to watch the kids rude their bikes outside. Jordan had to wear the new tutu her grandma bought her while riding. She was having so much fun!

It’s refreshing to have a child who is happy to just go outside. Last night she spent 45 minutes or so playing out in the slightly muddy backyard. She spent time on the backyard treehouse and swings. She returned covered in extra dirt in her pretty pink dress… But I won’t complain. I appreciate a [...]

Simple joys in life

May 18th, 2009 · 1 Comment · 2009, Family

I had some extra time this evening… so I picked up Jordan and walked her through campus for a little while. She asked to sit on my shoulders… and she proceeded to wrap her hand around my forehead as tightly as possible. I asked her why and she told me she was protecting my brain [...]

Bravery, development… And I didn’t have a camera

May 4th, 2009 · 5 Comments · 2009

After what was supposed to be a non-stop rainy weekend… We had weather that granted us all kinds of time to enjoy the great outdoors. So we got the kids out on their bikes. Jordan got on her tricycle and Cameron on his new bike. Our house isn’t far from a really big parking lot [...]
