…ok, so not really any lions, and maybe just one tiger, but still ~ the Alaska Zoo was a blast for the Shenanigans. Of allllll the things Ty could do for his 30th birthday he chose to skip out on free tickets to a motivational speaking seminar and join his girls at the zoo. And […]
From Alaska
Train Adventure
Niki and I managed to sneak off for a little post turnaround getaway. We spent the night in Anchorage last night and are on the train headed to Seward now. More to follow…
Romantic Getaway For Two
We left the girls and went to Homer this past Monday and Tuesday for a little getaway … and the girls were still watching cartoons when we got back! Ha ~ kidding, kidding … please don’t report us. Anyways, thanks to a generous gift from our youth pastor & church, we got to stay at […]
Super Nya!
Most superheroes have fancy costumes, but some are so cute they don’t need one at all… Today Niki and I were blessed with the presence of our favorite super hero in our house and I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to take a few photo’s. This is really my first foray into black and […]
Mount Redoubt, Bring It On…
Well as I’m sure you’re all aware, Mount Redoubt finally blew yesterday and is continuing to do so. I wish that I could have got some pics of it but as circumstances had it she came like a theif in the night. But, that doesn’t mean that we’re not prepared, I think the following speaks for itself… […]
Sick Day Drive

My little Nya bug continually impresses me with her vocabulary and comprehension, and today was no exception! So here are a few fun stories for the day…If Mommy Says No, Ask JesusI was nursing Elli and Nya walks up and says “Mommy, paint Nya’s nails?” (at least now she’s asking instead of just doing it […]
Ski Day
Today Ryan and I (friend from work), came up to Alyeska for a day of riding. It's beautiful out but a little cold so far. About 5 degrees… Were eating lunch right now. Just thought I'd drop a note.
“More pickle please?”
… said Nya after eating a bowl of pasta and 4 baby dills. And what happened next? … up she blows. Nasty. Yes, I should have trusted my better judgment after day #4 of barfing and diarrhea, BUT the fact she even had an appetite made me want to give her whatever she was asking […]
Which Is Grosser?
…. barf or diarrhea? … or how bout both mixed? Ya, I know. Disgusting. That’s what I got to clean up in Nya’s high chair after finally getting both girls to bed tonight (a tiny miracle in itself). My poor babies are both sick so my day started out with cleaning up puke and ended […]
