Home Again

We arrived home this afternoon and were greeted by a very happy and excited little girl (who changed so much in just 5 days it’s scarry). We had an amazing trip and I for one can’t believe it’s over. I hope to have much more to say about our adventures in the next few days…

Day 2 – Just as Good as the First

Yesterday was just as good, if not better than the first. Rocky Mountain National Park is truly amazing. We took in Sprague Lake in the morning and were treated to a spectacular view with great morning light and our shutter fingers could not have been happier clicking away. Only problem was trying to wrestle the…

Great day in the park

We had a fantastic day of hiking after getting about 9 hours of sleep. The rain held off until about 20 min after we finished hiking and after a soak in the hot tub and showers we opened the drapes to discover clear skies and a beautiful evening. We are gathering camera gear now and…

Snatching Defeat From the Jaws of Victory

Today couldn’t have been much worse (well, it probably could but I don’t even want to think about that). The great thing about being a parent though is you can still come home to a wonderful little person who can make anything better. Wives are pretty good at that too (well mine is). Today Helena…

11 Months!!

Christine and I can hardly believe it, but Helena is less than 1 month from being a year old! That’s right almost a year old!!! She has certainly been keeping us busy lately, but in mostly fun ways. She is not yet walking but she’s a speed demon on all fours. One of her favorite…

Screaming at the Baptism

We returned to the “scene of the crime” (ie where we got married) this past weekend for Helena’s baptism. She decided to announce herself screaming while she joined the ranks of the Catholic Church. I can’t say I heard anything the Priest said during the ceremony but we somehow made it through. Helena met the…

This is just a quick post to let my “loyal followers” of which there are few, that we uploaded the rest of the photos from vacation. Myrtle Beach – Part 3 Helena has kept us busy the last couple days with a lovely (NOT) virus called Hand, Foot, & Mouth Disaease. The symptoms include rash…
