Our Adventurous Puppy

Posted in Family

Our “puppy” is quite the adventurer.  He loves to go out and explore with us.  Unfortunately, as he gets older, he’s starting to have a harder time with all of the walking.  He doesn’t want to admit that he can’t do all of the walking, so he does his best to follow us everywhere.  He even tried to chase after me when D talked me into trying to ride Munchkin’s dirt bike.  (That’s a crazy story for another time, maybe…) We decided that I would try taking him for a ride in the RZR, so he could go out with…

Relaxing Camping Trip

Posted in Family

To make things relaxing and enjoyable for all, we kept things very simple this time out.  Even though we took out our trailer, I packed like we were heading out tent camping.  Our meals were very simple with very little prep work necessary.  D made his yummy eggs, bacon, and fried potatoes for breakfast.  For our other meals, we just hand sandwiches and grilled cheese with fruit and chips. Munchkin decided that she wanted to take her bicycle with us, so she had a blast riding her bike all over the place. Since we were out in the desert, she…

D’s had an busy week at work.  He was suppose to be heading out of town for a conference, but things at work kept him from going.  We decided that we needed a little break to allow him to get away from everything, so we’re heading out for a short overnight camping trip.  He plans on doing a little of this… We plan on doing a little exploring.  Mainly, I plan on relaxing and reading.  I’m sure Munchkin will make sure we have games on hand to play. I did a bunch on baking on Friday to allow us to…

Get Out and Play!

Posted in Family, and Reviews

It’s finally getting cooler outside, and that means that everyone here in the desert will be spending more time outdoors.  While it’s always important to get fresh air and exercise, it’s much easier when the temperatures fall below 100 degrees.  The cooler months mean more bike riding, scooters, running and playing, bouncing on the trampoline, and hiking and exploring. More outdoor play also leads to more dirty laundry.  Depending on the daily activities, Munchkin can go through several outfits during the day.  Playing in the mud or rolling in the grass can mean stains on the clothes, but Shout doesn’t…

Fun before the Goodbye

Posted in Family

Today, we had to say goodbye to Grandma and Grandpa.  D decided to take Grandpa for a spin in the side-by-side before they left.  Then, Grandpa took Grandma for a spin.  Of course, we couldn’t let the opportunity to snap a few pictures pass by, so we took a few pictures in the RZR. It was a tearful goodbye, but we all are very grateful for the time that we were able to spend together.  The house seems much quieter now that our special guests are gone.
