Day Trippen: Day 6

This was a quieter day. We did laundry in the morning so we’re cleaner. Air pressure is a real thing. We’re lucky these chips didn’t burst. Daddy had a bad incident with altitude sickness last night. Luckily, a family friend hooked him up. We had breakfast for dinner. Zachary jumped right in and made scramble …

Day Trippen: Day 5

Well, we ran into a bit of an issue Sunday morning. Grandma and I went to shower and came backed to everyone out of the RV, except the dog, and a dead bolted RV. With no way to get in, we were pretty screwed. Luckily, Mom Mom asked whether the windows were open, which led …

Road Trippen: Day 4

Polson, MT we loved your views. We rolled in after another long day of driving. Our hotel had an amazing view of Flathead Lake. With pup in tow, we ate out on their back balcony taking in the scenery. Confederated Salish and Koontenai Tribes own the southern half of the lake while parts of the …

Rpad Trippen: Day 3

We continue our trek west. Last night we stayed in Glendive MT. Pretty small town filled with ranchers and generally nice people. With that said, we made quite the scene upon arrival. After an 11 hour day, we were ready to get out of the car. Unfortunately, in our haste, the trunk opened and out …

Summer Travel

Something about summer traveling with the family. It’s all the excited energy of travel wrapped with summer warmth and crowds. And lots and lots of cars, trucks jockeying for space on crowded interstates. We are on Part 2 of Family RVing across country. And this time, y’all we’re going international when we cross the border …

WIR: July 28

We are officially in the dog days of summer. The last couple of days have been super hot. The humidity is almost swamp like. But that hasn’t deterred Zachary and his buddies from fishing. Quiet frankly it has become his new favorite thing to do….and I’m all for it. Huntin, fishin, lovin every day, that’s …

WIR: July 12

This week, I saw a fascinating quote that spoke to our week. The quote, “everything you want is just beyond your fears” The boy went beyond his fears this week and we couldn’t be prouder. For month’s this week has been circled in his mind. Summer school at St. Joe Prep, followed by crew on …

Teenager

This weekend, our amazing son becomes a teenager. His path of an adopted kid from South Korea to living with us has truly been the most incredible story. From the beginning images, we wondered about the chunky kid with the funny comb over and very large feet. The decision to adopt, and from a place …

WIR: June 3

So, it’s been awhile since I’ve posted. Honestly, it has been a very busy couple of weeks. But also, the website was blocked for several weeks. It took some time to get that resolved. In the meantime, life rolled on: We are in the heart of our baseball season. It’s the last year on the …

WIR: Mar 3

Baseball season is quickly approaching. The boy has been putting in serious work. We’ve spent the last eight weeks, going straight from school, three days a week, to a local training facility. The idea was to get stronger and work on his hitting. It may not look like much yet, but his broad shoulders definitely …
