The Story of Us: January 2010
http://thelandrumsblog.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 24, 2010. From the Frozen Tundra. Robert happened to be online at the same time as me this morning and we were able to IM briefly. He said they are FREEZING because they're in a mountainous area now. I think -23 degrees was the last temp I heard. Unfathomable! He said he was wearing two pair of pants, two shirts, his jacket and gloves at all times. I asked him if his thermals were coming in handy. He said, "What thermals! Obviously he didn't check the front pocket of the suitcase! We flew...

The Story of Us: April 2010
http://thelandrumsblog.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 29, 2010. Who Do You Know? We are in chilly Minneapolis this morning attending the first day of the Christian Alliance for Orphans Conference. So far: incredible! We were able to hear Tom Davis. Speak at the opening session and he was part of the session I attended on engaging "Youth and College Age Students in Orphan Ministry". If you're unfamiliar with Tom, a great place to start is his book Fields of the Fatherless. So much has been said this morning that strikes us deeply. The mos...

The Story of Us: November 2009
http://thelandrumsblog.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 7, 2009. Had never had smores. Kristina was convinced that they sounded yucky, but after her first one she was hooked. Eventually the Hershey's chocolate ran out and the fire died down, but it's a sure bet you'll find us in the backyard next weekend again. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Story of Us: Excuse Me, but the Correct Idiom is "Fall off the Wagon"
http://thelandrumsblog.blogspot.com/2010/08/excuse-me-but-correct-idiom-is-falling.html
Friday, August 6, 2010. Excuse Me, but the Correct Idiom is "Fall off the Wagon". It happened when I least expected it but fully needed it. Shoes kicked off, one leg slung over the arm of the recliner, saucer perched in hand, butter cream frosted slice of cake in midbite - Sam sidled up to me and with genuine sympathy said, "What's wrong mom? Did you break the wagon? She said, "I'll pick you up at 5 am.". That was bound to be a committed group of women. Although I wasn't thrilled about the early hour...

The Story of Us: Summer of Service
http://thelandrumsblog.blogspot.com/2010/07/summer-of-service.html
Friday, July 30, 2010. Has it really been two months since our last post? I believe summer days pass quicker than any other time period. I swear I was just cleaning up my classroom and this week I found myself rearranging desks to try a new classroom layout. School will be here in a matter of a few weeks, but we've been redeeming the time during our time off. Hannah loves on her favorite horse Prince. Hannah having a heart to heart with Image about where they are and are not going to go. I swear they've ...

The Story of Us: Running Here, Running There
http://thelandrumsblog.blogspot.com/2010/04/running-here-running-there.html
Saturday, April 24, 2010. Running Here, Running There. Another blissfully busy weekend! Signing up for my second race has kept me motivated to put my running shoes on several times each week and hit the pavement. You see, I'm not a runner, but I am trying! And I am reaping the benefits of the exercise. I've lost 7 pounds thus far and I feel great. We've decided to sign up for the US Secret Service 5K Road Race later next month, so that's where our focus will be in the coming weeks. Hannah is our resident...

The Story of Us: May 2010
http://thelandrumsblog.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 29, 2010. I know, I know. It's been a month since we blogged. I blame it on the fact that I'm a school teacher. We're down to the wire here. Seven days left of school. My desk is a sea of ungraded papers and inventory sheets that mocks me everytime I step into my classroom. But apart from school, there have been some other things going on. Hannah has been volunteering at a nonprofit lately. She works with handicapp children and horses doing what is called hippotherapy or riding therapy&...

The Story of Us: Let's Hear it For the Boys
http://thelandrumsblog.blogspot.com/2010/12/lets-hear-it-for-boys.html
Friday, December 10, 2010. Let's Hear it For the Boys. They're sixteen today. When did that happen? They've grown into such tender hearted, strong young men. I can hardly stand it. Sixteen years ago we found ourselves standing over incubators in a neonatal intensive care unit trying not to tangle wires and set off moniter alarms just to get close to them. For their service to homeless and ill veterans. Happy birthday, boys. We are so proud of you and we love you so much. Still alive over there?
