Evan 2.0

It’s funny what kids want to play with.  I caught Evan wanting to connect to the world of today.  USB style!  Extra points for figuring out what his shirt says. From Blogger Pictures ...

Hips don't lie

Well Shakira might think her hips don't lie, but there is a lot of truth behind this shot. From Blogger Pictures  We went skiing this week and I decided to work on my Telemark skills.  The conditions were Icy, with me being generous and my skills are still "in development".  A bunch of the teachers were taking a jump and I thought to myself, hey I can do that.... no really, having jumped and wiped out once before last season how...

Scooby Dooby Doo!

You should know first that Evan has eczema, especially when teething. Poor thing just gets raw hands and cheeks (face). Lotion alone doesn't do the trick, but you know what seems to be helping? Flax seed oil. Yup, simple. I love my ND! Evan takes 1 tsp or so with his morning cereal and is good to go. I'm supposed to take it too so that (a) I can be healthier (what?) and (b) he gets it through my breastmilk (I know, mmmmmm). Now I like to...

Land

I was trying to think of a witty title for this posting, but I don’t want one.  Plain and simple, Dora and I are land owners in Montana.  As of a week ago, we closed a deal on 3.5 Acres in Montana, just outside East Glacier.  For those of you who know me, I’ve been dreaming of this day for what seems like forever.  Civilization can be so draining and I often find rejuvenation in the great outdoors, like so many of you.  I...

Joshua Giraffe

As the title may imply, we visited the zoo last weekend.  It was an overnight stay at “Uncle Jeff’s” and Logan was thrilled.  It was a crazy weekend with 13 people staying in one house!  Surprisingly, a little social lubricant goes a long way!  I think everyone got a long nicely and fun was had by all.  It was nice to visit with Jeff and the weather was awesome to boot.  It’s starting to feel like spring here, something...

Mexico Update 2

I’ve got a slide show under production of our trip, but it’s still a few days out.  Adding pictures from the in-laws.  In the mean time, I thought I would post my top 3 for what was great about our trip. 1. Yalku Lagoon – This was a snorkelling lagoon that was full of fish and easy on the wallet.  This lagoon offered amazing views of fish at a price of about 10 bucks.  While not free, the other options hit closer to 100. ...

Mexico Update

Well, we've been back for a couple of weeks now and I've been procrastinating on posting. Here is a quick one with my top 5 suggestions to remember before leaving on a trip to Mexico. 1. Wear your sandals around the house before you go. Unless you name is Denny, your bound to get some "hot spots" on your feet. 2. Sunscreen is your friend.  No really, it's looking out for your best interest. 3.  Everyone is selling something.  ...
