A couple of weekends ago, the Krohn boys took a trip to the NE corner of Indiana to Pokagon State Park. Joshua’s cub scout troup enjoyed a day of tobagonning and ice fishing. A 2.5 hour drive from home, Pokagon is famous for its tobagon run. A man-made course with refrigerated tracks, it is quite […]

With the weather on and off these days, when a nice day comes along it is time to take advantage of it. One of our favorite nearby places to visit is just down the bike path to the creek and pond area. There, someone tied a large towing roap to a tree and made a […]

Fall is a beautiful time of year on our cul-de-sac, especially our backyard. Our lot is surrounded by 100 foot hickory trees that tower over maples. Each year the maples get bigger and reach their branches higher and wider to get more sun. This time of the year our yard turns miriad of colors ranging […]
This past weekend Joshua and and I enjoyed a 2-night family campout with Cub Scout Pack 197. Our whole family didn’t make it due to some flu in the house. It was a Joshua and Dad weekend. We traveled south to the trees and hills of southern Indiana and the Spring Mill State Park. The […]
For Matthew’s class he had to put together a group of pictures that introduces himself to the class. So Dad and Matthew used Lightroom to look through literally thousands of photos and narrowed them down to the few that Matthew thought best represented who he is. I have to admit, he did a nice job […]
Emily has written another special piece. Similar to her imaginative journal writing from last year, she let her creativity come through on this 5th grade poetry assignment. Yes, we are proud parents! The Five Senses of Autumn The Smell…… The crispy air that is stained with apple, That stings the nerves that smell it, A […]
School is in full swing with Emily and Joshua getting their fall 2009 pictures taken this past week. My how they grow up quickly. Matthew hasn’t had his picture taken yet, but I’ll add it when we get it. Yes, we did talk Joshua into wearing his favorite souvenir shirt from the Outer Banks. How […]
The weather was perfect today, almost 80 degrees. This morning Dad cut the grass, then Emily had a soccer game. Church had a great message and the boys (including Dad) played in the yard. The three of us set up the golf net and then worked on our games. Both Joshua and Matthew are starting […]
My little girl is growing up. She will always be my little sunshine. It has been 2 or more years since Emily has talked about painting her room. Patiently she waited as other projects took priority. Now it was her turn. After 3 or 4 trips to Home Depot for color swatches, she picked out […]
