Here is a story Keenan made up today (as scribed by Grandma Jeri).

The Fossil in the Cloud, by Keenan (age 4.9 years)

First there is a flower in the cloud. A puppy smells the flower. All of a sudden, a monster comes, but to our surprise, it was Keenan. The monster has a lot of arms. They were slipping on ice down the mountain and crashed. Then Sunna came to save Keenan monster and the puppy.Sunna saved the day. All of a sudden, a boulder rolled down the mountian and squished Isis, the monster and Sunna and the flower.

The end.

Celebrated the New Year with family in NW Montana. Had a wonderful time. Since we didn’t have much access to live TV to watch the ball drop in Times Square, we decided to celebrate on our own. We took a lighted Coleman lantern and lowered it via a rope. Yes, alcohol was involved in our decision making process.

Jeri and I spent some time wandering through the restored prairie at Jubilee College State Park, Illinois on Sunday, July 11. These are some of the flowers and insects we encountered.

These are some of the photos I took while we were celebrating July 4 in Indiana. I particularly like the knots which look like a wolf.

Keenan wanted to share his knowledge of the alphabet with us while we are in Montana. Here is what he had to share.

Not to be outdone, Keenan also had some thoughts (just prior to his 4th birthday).

Gavin had a few things to say. These are some initial thoughts at roughly the 1 year mark.

Since we have a number of websites, we decided to develop this site as a birdge to the various sites.

Milo is the newest member of our family. Here are a few photos of him.
