Mrs. Olsen: May 2015
http://mrsolsen.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 28, 2015. Emma went to a birthday party and got a few ring pops in the party bag. There were only 3, so Luke didn't get one. But don't worry, the other kids shared. :). Posted by Mrs. Olsen. Wednesday, May 27, 2015. Me: I think we need to start a weekly lunch schedule. I don't like that! That prettt much summarizes Bart's relationship with food right now. Posted by Mrs. Olsen. Monday, May 25, 2015. This was such nice family time together that was easy and low-key. Aaaahhh. She had several c...

Mrs. Olsen: First 2015 Summer Swim Meet
http://mrsolsen.blogspot.com/2015/06/first-2015-summer-swim-meet.html
Wednesday, June 03, 2015. First 2015 Summer Swim Meet. The theme of the first meet was superheros. It's hard to tell, but each of the girls have on a superhero cape. Izzy did swim team this summer and that has been a lot of fun for everyone. It was BLAZING hot for the meet. I was ready to get this thing going! Here's Rebecca, lining up for her first race. Luke and me, trying to kill some time in between events. Rebecca swam backstroke for the medley relay. She's the second from the right.

Inconceivables: August 2007
http://natandbry.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 19, 2007. Garden of the Gods. I (nat) was desperate to go camping so we decided to try a spot near Colorado Springs called Meadow Ridge near Rampart Reservoir. It was a beautiful spot once we found it in the dark and sprinkling rain at about 8:30pm. There were pine and aspen trees and wild flowers all over. The reservoir was pretty cool with a red shore, but wasn't meant for much more than fishing. This is balancing rock. Good thing Bryan is holding it up! Rock climbers frequent the park.

Inconceivables: Easter Eggs!
http://natandbry.blogspot.com/2011/04/easter-eggs.html
Sunday, April 24, 2011. Pearl really got into the concept of Easter. Egg hunting this year. This was mostly fueled by a visit by grandparents from both sides of the family before Easter which they used to prime Pearl for the event as much as was humanly possible. Pearl was in candy heaven. Granny Z had a great time teaching Pearl to fill her own eggs with candy. Pearl's little neighbor friend Jos. Came on the hunt with her. That was the greatest discovery of the day!

Inconceivables: May 2008
http://natandbry.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 3, 2008. What's in a Name? My name is Bryan. When people call me something else (Mr. Burningham, Brother Burningham or even President Burningham) I usually tell them to call me Bryan. When people write me an email and spell my name with the wrong vowel (Brian, uh . makes me cringe) I usually respond in kind e.g. Carl becomes Curl. Isn't my surname more telling about where I came from, which would have some influence on genetic dispositions? What is in a name? How do we identify ourselves?

Inconceivables: December 2007
http://natandbry.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 17, 2007. It seems that in a city it is so easy to let the swarms of people just breeze on by. You don't even have to acknowledge that they exist. Ships passing in the night, only the night is day and the wide ocean is the width of a sidewalk. Averted eyes or a reclusive posture make people worlds apart even though you are standing 4 inches away on a crowded bus. My question to you is, should neighbors be interested in each other? It feels good to be neighborly. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Inconceivables: October 2007
http://natandbry.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 28, 2007. Every October our ward does a pine wood derby. Since we have virtually no boy scouts it becomes an entire ward free for all. There are no rules, limitations or restrictions! This year we did a space derby. Given the structural design of my rocket I thought it fitting to christen it " Skeletor. The second run I wound the propeller the same number of times, but the elastics had stretched. Thus producing less thrust. Unfortunately I lost. Option is just so enticing). In my younger ...

Inconceivables: November 2007
http://natandbry.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 17, 2007. An Award Winning Email. Recently Natalie's parents have started a largely vegan diet. I definitely give them kudos for such an ambitious lifestyle change. Of course this has caused a stir among some of the siblings as rumors have started the mom Bailey was planning on making a tofu turkey (tofurkey). Not being able to resist myself I retorted, "Michael, Don't worry, we won't judge you for your true red white and blue ethnocentricity. I'm sure there are lots of rednecks, s...

Mrs. Olsen: Bennett Nurseries Field Trip
http://mrsolsen.blogspot.com/2015/06/bennett-nurseries-field-trip.html
Friday, June 05, 2015. Bennett Nurseries Field Trip. A friend of ours set up a field trip to Bennett Nurseries. It was technically during summer break, but I've been planning on continuing school a little bit during the summer. Plus, who can complain about a field trip during the summer? I'd never been there before, but I'd heard about it. Still, I wasn't prepared for how cool it would be! Luke was in train heaven. The other kids enjoyed it too, of course. The kids loved the giant swing. :). It wasn't lo...

Water and salt | Waves in the Dust
https://wavesinthedust.wordpress.com/2008/07/03/water-and-salt
Waves in the Dust. A travel log of two people on an adventure…. Starting a new bend on life’s winding road. Getting the van ready to roll. Adventures in the Grand Canyon. Hitting the road, or water rather. 10 things NOT to do in a sailboat. I always thought boats were meant to be on water? Back at the beginning. Questing for the deep blue. You know your in the south when. Houses are but very badly built boats that are so hard aground they’ve become unmovable. I wonder if parking lots can have tides?
