About Me

My photo
Our adventure started on a beautiful June day in 2004. Fast forward 12 years and now we are the proud parents of 3 active, beautiful boys. Nathan, Bracken, and Marco. We call Prescott Valley, Arizona home and are constantly reminded that there is never enough time to accomplish and experience everything we think we want. Life with a young family is precious and simplicity is our ongoing quest.

Summer Road Trip - Fargo, ND and Glyndon, MN


Pioneer Day Party




At one point during the evening, we found Marco and Sam with their pants down around their ankles and relieving themselves on this pine tree.  When you gotta go, you gotta go!


















Catching minoes, is really quite tricky.  We finally had success once we lured them into a plastic clamshell from the grapes with little pieces of chicken nuggets.










Bracken and James really bonded on this trip.  When we drove away from Dan and Chelsea's house for the next let of our trip Bracken was very sad.  He quietly cried in the back seat off and on for 4 hours, because he missed James so much.

Watching the fireworks from our front yard while eating fireworks cookies (oreos) and fruit pizza.


Tuckered out buckaroos, they both fell asleep with their glow sticks.



This is how Marco gets into Papi's top drawer where all of his gum, keys, flash drives, electronics and pocket knives are kept. We catch Marco here many times every day.





Let the fun begin!

Going,

going,

gone!





This is when I started getting nervous.




Be gone nasty brown 80's carpet!


The linoleum hidden under the parkay flooring nearly did us in.  It was super nasty and seriously stuck onto the cement sub floor.
