Of all the parks in all the towns in all the world, what are the odds we’d run into family at Coney Island for Independence Eve fireworks?

Apparently the odds are 1 in 1 … This was our first trip here, and somehow we managed to accidentally find each other in a crowd of over [...]

It’s time for the annual Spring Egg Hunt at Tower Park in Ft. Thomas, Kentucky!

This is the first year we’ve attended.  Though there were thousands of colored eggs on the ground, residents informed us that the recession caused a huge cutback in the number of eggs this year.

If you climb onto the porch swing, you can be sure that Shadow will try to join you!  Here Shadow enjoys a nice doggie sandwich between Di and Zadee.

After spending the afternoon at David’s, we returned home to open our presents from each other and Santa Dog.

Darby and Shadow love Christmas.  Here they help Theresa open her gift.

We enjoyed our Christmas Day at David’s house with lots of good food and wonderful family times!

We went tree-hunting late this year because Theresa’s family is coming to town in late January to celebrate Christmas, and so we wanted our tree to last until then.  We drove to all our favorite tree farms where we can cut our own tree, but they were all closed due to the drought the [...]

We visited EnterTRAINment Junction in northern Cincinnati today.  This unique indoor family entertainment center has 80,000 square feet of family fun.  It boasts the world’s largest (25,000 sq. ft.) indoor train display, railroading museum, hand-cranked railroad car that you can drive, children’s play area, walk-thru mazes and holiday displays.

Joel, David, Zadee, Lauren, Di and Theresa [...]
