If I can't say it out loud, odds are I can blog it! Monday, April 13, 2015. I'm not feeling too great, and sitting here is actually quite painful, but I still want to get down a few thoughts that have been shuffling around in my head. The exact amount of time Emily slept is still open to debate, but I figure that's up to that car! Our vacation rental was sweet! We only ate out 3 times. The rest of the time we cooked at the house. It was such a relaxing vacation! Of course, no POGO required for temple work.

I realize my children, along with one particular sister in law, are probably the only people that will read this entire thing, but so be it! 160; This will be a work in progress as our vacation progresses. Day one was a travel day. We left for the airport around 8:30 am. We paid a bit extra to have 4 of our party of 10 board early, and that was a stroke of genius! The desk clerks said to come back at 9 in the morning, that thei...

If I can't say it out loud, odds are I can blog it! Wednesday, April 03, 2013. Currently, two topics seem to dominate the news - gun control and gay marriage. I thought it would be beneficial to at least my own family to express my thoughts on one of these. Given that, I do see how those who would prefer a same sex union could feel discriminated against, in particular with health care, inheritance, taxes and other issues. For that, I don't take issue with recognizing their relationship legally, allow...

If I can't say it out loud, odds are I can blog it! Friday, February 24, 2012. A Non-Mormon's Guide to the LDS Missionary Experience. Lately, I've been wondering if my Facebook posts make any sense at all to friends not of my faith. I put things out about the MTC and Braden, and it finally dawned on me that I might have friends asking themselves what exactly is an MTC? And what exactly does it mean when I talk about Braden's mission? 19 - 21 year old young men, known as "Elders". The MTC is basically wha...

Before I dig right into the park experience, let me give you a run down of the drive from Utah down to California. This was our youngest Traven's first time driving, and it had been years since Lori made the drive. I have to say, they both did great! I have to say a bit about parking. I know, who cares right? Now, a bit about the holidays at Disneyland. Absolutely wonderful! Well at about 10 minut...

Between sports and other summer activities, the only time we could pull off a week long vacation was around Memorial Day weekend. I was not excited about the potential holiday crowds, but we went for it, expecting the worst but hoping for the best. One quick side note. I took a lot of grief over it, but my Google doc vacation check list worked out great. We were definitely over prepared! Simpsons - still rocks, although T was not...

What wonderful music and talks we have enjoyed so far. Christmas truly is a magical season. It amplifies our reverence towards our Savior, and reminds us of God’s great gift to us, providing for us a way to be saved and returned to His presence. You know, it’s funny. I am so disappointed in myself. Oh well, here we go.
