The park is piloting a new system of timed entry tickets to mitigate the crowding. Though it's a pilot program, I don't believe it's going to go away as the national parks are all seeing record crowds. There are two corridors in the park- Bear Lake and then the rest of the park. If you enter before 9 am or after 3 pm you can enter the main part of the park without a timed ticket. But to enter the Bear Lake area you must arrive before 5 am or after 6 pm if you do not have a ticket.</p><p>We didn't realize that this system was in place until about a month before out trip, so when we went to get tickets, the only time frame was from 5-7 am. We got our tickets and planned to enter as close to 7 as possible! :) </p><p>We got to the park at about 6:55 am and entered the Bear Lake corridor with our tickets. </p><p>Our first adventure was a hike around Bear Lake, which was still patially frozen and most of our hike was in the snow! We were very thankful to have our<a href="https://www.academy.com/shop/pdp/cascade-aluminum-quick-lock-trekking-poles-with-cork-grips" target="_blank"> trekking poles</a> for help walking on the slippery snow and ice. We each had one pole and they definitely came in handy! It was so beautiful. After every bend, I couldn't get over the beauty of the mountains, the snow and the water. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicVcDPf95JKqqBUqPM8y78IF39Ko9T_BXBr9agKLOM0piY5vz-hhy6fHK06jIQUV48TCXjsvHzZypAE7eBfSmIeKFMPyPHfiovdbK4F508SsCKL4e3jDJmlzJRbeMJl3JC5YxmXIkaSog/s4032/20210603_075512.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicVcDPf95JKqqBUqPM8y78IF39Ko9T_BXBr9agKLOM0piY5vz-hhy6fHK06jIQUV48TCXjsvHzZypAE7eBfSmIeKFMPyPHfiovdbK4F508SsCKL4e3jDJmlzJRbeMJl3JC5YxmXIkaSog/w300-h400/20210603_075512.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPo55eN8skvxiH6SnkmXojkwozXRa5OTh2SPwq5ZMlIhqCYncawA31o6oPqDw_4hd-7AlQZuaS5p0LjUAh6xgYjhFPsJoppzLL8aiIZGXHVj5b5xiHiGsig7sItkoRCD91ozSt1wlPkz0/s4032/20210603_080147.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPo55eN8skvxiH6SnkmXojkwozXRa5OTh2SPwq5ZMlIhqCYncawA31o6oPqDw_4hd-7AlQZuaS5p0LjUAh6xgYjhFPsJoppzLL8aiIZGXHVj5b5xiHiGsig7sItkoRCD91ozSt1wlPkz0/w300-h400/20210603_080147.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEUWVRYmxJjhNgjn3Nt7-0gW3EfYIQ5o77GHRkHujZf41zoJ5mFTjQrHgznxt3xML2eu4olCyxVzaudTHrZHv0mlIGydqQZBK4doJdGdDUb_LSacN4-4a5jFgVm8FmF25I-391DAPfKxs/s4032/20210603_080234.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEUWVRYmxJjhNgjn3Nt7-0gW3EfYIQ5o77GHRkHujZf41zoJ5mFTjQrHgznxt3xML2eu4olCyxVzaudTHrZHv0mlIGydqQZBK4doJdGdDUb_LSacN4-4a5jFgVm8FmF25I-391DAPfKxs/w300-h400/20210603_080234.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVxmPI-onctRn-czHVXSrmtPJZSDu8Wa2eax1EPISnwmIK7fxC6uBe2GVLgLp71o7gtHWmKQ6iwKkQsbM628GJZyztfEGdXNF-Fre_BeOdEZGCVwSL6GiCZAg6qiu-yirHyeP5hcMufkE/s3648/20210603_080310.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVxmPI-onctRn-czHVXSrmtPJZSDu8Wa2eax1EPISnwmIK7fxC6uBe2GVLgLp71o7gtHWmKQ6iwKkQsbM628GJZyztfEGdXNF-Fre_BeOdEZGCVwSL6GiCZAg6qiu-yirHyeP5hcMufkE/w400-h300/20210603_080310.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR83ocuT_2B9QJsd42ENfA358J3gP6kyhVyD0W12UpI5Ry38biM-I_CtanfeSYlCczBJ5RDifDXlbBaZ6vjWbmKMXKO7i-EVja1MknfZJaXWpSiqzvyxJhKiE7gJu0mB7MS0pCvmv-Lv8/s4032/20210603_080709.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR83ocuT_2B9QJsd42ENfA358J3gP6kyhVyD0W12UpI5Ry38biM-I_CtanfeSYlCczBJ5RDifDXlbBaZ6vjWbmKMXKO7i-EVja1MknfZJaXWpSiqzvyxJhKiE7gJu0mB7MS0pCvmv-Lv8/w300-h400/20210603_080709.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/yknztN1_7i0" width="320" youtube-src-id="yknztN1_7i0"></iframe></div><br /><p>After the Bear Lake hike, we hiked up to Alberta Falls.

This road travels from one end of the park to the other (From Estes Park to Grand Lake) if you travel the entire route. We opted to travel half and end at the Alpine Visitor's Center, the highest visitor center in the United States at over 12,000 feet high! The drive takes you up over 4,000 feet in altitude and the last portion of the drive to the Visitor's Center is on the Apline Tundra, above the treeline. It was an incredible experience. We stopped along the way to see overviews, take short hikes/walks and experience the change in weather/temperature. At the top, the Visitor's Center had only the week before been dug out of the snow! In the winter, it is completely submerged under the snow! It was quite chilly up there and the hike we planned to take there was not open because of the recent snowfall. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSOoCZe7hNbJnx3AEG0GCxWueEIGOagaHLbx7S535xNN8cxgCs786e1d6XmdwAJppH1hpxYujwsIa3Yb3DbITry1NM1MkhC5vXoqGpRTPnJ3Vgi_SVyuZBg1l8SZmR_mu2SA8OlqCtvGw/s4032/20210603_112025.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: left;">Afterwards, we headed back down the mountain to Sheep Lake hoping to catch a sighting of some big horn sheep! And boy did we ever! We got there just in time. The sheep come down from the mountain, cross the road (they even have crossing guards stationed there for the sheep!) to graze in the meadow and drink in Sheep Lake. We got there in time to see the sheep grazing, while a moose was swimming and a herd of elk were grazing on the opposite side of the lake! It was so cool! Then we watched as the sheep crossed back over the road and up the mountain. It was a very awesome experience!</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTDCMjql8nCSD3cw2rHZECEhaZPIWXCrLYNyzRP44Xn7_EXBgNPZzjGbgAPJGAmv9rZG3hoid9gadBX6aYmIATDPbBpMtPewInZmqArV6zZmE8tsvrLNBen3r8vJXwcKBBCpKowTvo2qg/s4032/20210603_144858.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTDCMjql8nCSD3cw2rHZECEhaZPIWXCrLYNyzRP44Xn7_EXBgNPZzjGbgAPJGAmv9rZG3hoid9gadBX6aYmIATDPbBpMtPewInZmqArV6zZmE8tsvrLNBen3r8vJXwcKBBCpKowTvo2qg/w300-h400/20210603_144858.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-pauJIfhvrkGPe_qKyOUXM482UNtEm1_Rru9ZYu4yYlN_2fS8xzp6LsiNu4lWmZghKAKWSJThvtoJvn5hGU2XeLBAa-AnjTKI2fdYf_Z7gl9vJZzBYl7bcAb8ED_K1BenZIbgR-Pfne0/s4032/20210603_145036.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-pauJIfhvrkGPe_qKyOUXM482UNtEm1_Rru9ZYu4yYlN_2fS8xzp6LsiNu4lWmZghKAKWSJThvtoJvn5hGU2XeLBAa-AnjTKI2fdYf_Z7gl9vJZzBYl7bcAb8ED_K1BenZIbgR-Pfne0/w300-h400/20210603_145036.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0ZW77N2DjaVh7ZLbSFhHbz3jhsccReEenBwHSEHWOdrcFkwJpwfM7g0HyO0C2O-991amMfsoStOpr_wh_WGQ9Fz9yi354TGfkJs77iBB-c_-j6SOcFxtM-VMVWDIidyDtMD3K72yb9_M/s4032/20210603_145247.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0ZW77N2DjaVh7ZLbSFhHbz3jhsccReEenBwHSEHWOdrcFkwJpwfM7g0HyO0C2O-991amMfsoStOpr_wh_WGQ9Fz9yi354TGfkJs77iBB-c_-j6SOcFxtM-VMVWDIidyDtMD3K72yb9_M/w300-h400/20210603_145247.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><p>Rocky Mountain National Park was defintely a contender for our favorite park! The experience was so different than what we just left in South Carolina- from the snow to the temperatures to the animal sightings. We loved it!</p><p>We also really liked Hermit Park for our campsite. We didn't have hook-ups, which for those of you who are RV newbies like us, means no electricity, water or sewer. But the RV had a 40 gallon water tank, and tanks for the sewer. In addition, the lights, water pump and refrigerator ran on a battery that charged when we drove, but also charged from the solar panels on the roof. Without hook-ups, the microwave, A/C and wall outlets didn't function, but with the weather being so wonderful, we didn't need the A/C and we didn't miss the microwave. We used the generator briefly each morning to make coffee and use the toaster, but other than that, we really didn't miss having no hook-ups. It was a beautiful and quiet place to camp! </p></div><br />Carriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11390743067565635156noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2124064366424762291.post-43670659977487231642021-06-22T10:00:00.002-04:002021-06-23T13:22:42.509-04:00Day 1- The Flight and the RV<p>Here we go! All the nitty gritty details with links, photos and I am even going to give you the price point for some things! Hope this will help you plan your own out west adventure!</p><p> June 2 we flew out to Denver, Colorado. Here are all the awesome details!</p><p><br /></p><p>The Flight- </p><p>We flew <a href="https://www.flyfrontier.com/">Frontier Airlines</a>. We really loved it. We got a Black Friday (or maybe Cyber Monday?) deal on the flights, but honestly, I think it was pretty much their standard fare. A friend booked the same flight not on Black Friday and paid much the same. We joined their frequent flyer club, Discount Den. It was $59 for a year. When you are a Discount Den member, kids fly free with every adult ticket you purchase! So, it was totally worth it to join since 3 of our kids flew for free. You still have to pay fees for those tickets, and for baggage, but the fare is free. It is a discount airline- so no first class, no free drinks or snacks, small tray tables, no in flight entertainment. But that was not an issue for us. We packed snacks, everyone has their own Kindle Fires. And did you know- Disney+, Netflix and Prime all let you download shows and movies? So, the day before we left everyone downloaded books and movies for the flight. The total airfare- round trip tickets for 6 people, a carry-on and a checked bag for each person (so 6 total check bags and 6 carry on bags), plus the Discount Den membership fee was $700! The flight was nonstop from Charlotte, NC to Denver and was about 3 hours long. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrOp44D3b-kuJk6JZCQ8fLj4Y-gx-uB6teSmZF2SEmw7dw9Nlgk1i_61C3YRHTc3mOco1TyAzJXBkFUnlj6GDJxJDA0tbqrJx3R-ahhGrlbYv7WZPpZmoV3MjjDgd5K__69otsKZYFU3A/s3648/20210602_064337.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrOp44D3b-kuJk6JZCQ8fLj4Y-gx-uB6teSmZF2SEmw7dw9Nlgk1i_61C3YRHTc3mOco1TyAzJXBkFUnlj6GDJxJDA0tbqrJx3R-ahhGrlbYv7WZPpZmoV3MjjDgd5K__69otsKZYFU3A/w400-h300/20210602_064337.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioAQterrIwo2jsQskPA9oiRjRgWzK9T7KZpgowRIT__CYJoE6nH3mPyuP7MMBUfLKV1bKJfd7FBSsuVTXb5-iST5xZOS1BFHwtl78X_lUPMXyOC-MK1TM0P0MaoKJIiROeidF8w42EJ1M/s4032/20210602_064328.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioAQterrIwo2jsQskPA9oiRjRgWzK9T7KZpgowRIT__CYJoE6nH3mPyuP7MMBUfLKV1bKJfd7FBSsuVTXb5-iST5xZOS1BFHwtl78X_lUPMXyOC-MK1TM0P0MaoKJIiROeidF8w42EJ1M/w300-h400/20210602_064328.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><p>The RV- </p><p>We rented from <a href="https://www.motorhomerepublic.com/">Motorhome Republic</a>. Again, it was a Black Friday/Cyber Monday Deal. Motorhome Republic functions kind of like Travelocity does for hotels. When you book with them, they are like a go between for you and the RV rental company. So, though we booked through Motorhome Republic, our RV actually came from <a href="https://www.roadbearrv.com/en/contact-us/branch-locations/denver">Road Bear RV</a>. Just like with Travelocity, sometimes it may be cheaper to rent directly from the company than the go-between, but because it was a Motorhome Republic Black Friday deal, it was cheaper to use them for the rental. We rented a 28-30 foot motorhome. The rental contract indicated it would be a 2019 or newer. We are complete RV newbies! Never been in one! But we read up (Jack got the book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/RVing-Idiots-Guides-Brent-Peterson/dp/1465470220/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=RVing&qid=1624324748&sr=8-5">RVing</a> for Christmas and we watched YouTube videos). The rental for 2 week was around $2,500. In case you want somehing to compare it to, this was less than it would have cost to rent a large SUV or minivan for the same time!</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzdaZj_iwblpx0mPapXLH_pGi729cPQzKCfCbLq1rPQdZDYy8iWBpWl2U6ztQHSGElr8a6wBKVhqB5A7sg-c1G98-TkDfALzf8EPGEWxVRfI6Mu3ztiy9XxonPmhtVVyHWrFycIIR49b4/s4032/20210602_100052.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzdaZj_iwblpx0mPapXLH_pGi729cPQzKCfCbLq1rPQdZDYy8iWBpWl2U6ztQHSGElr8a6wBKVhqB5A7sg-c1G98-TkDfALzf8EPGEWxVRfI6Mu3ztiy9XxonPmhtVVyHWrFycIIR49b4/w300-h400/20210602_100052.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiISSHz0GP4tBTCJgT6VVCMk0JCqEYebpM73t9O3ZtKOpFs_08y4cgFm74m_UJgE65XKNdxYQXLUIj5aLkywI0FC6NCKbucxRjXmWyVWjxnM6SNQ8cmAl6_VqRlm8N6UAQ-8w28M9-Yi6k/s4032/20210602_095438.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiISSHz0GP4tBTCJgT6VVCMk0JCqEYebpM73t9O3ZtKOpFs_08y4cgFm74m_UJgE65XKNdxYQXLUIj5aLkywI0FC6NCKbucxRjXmWyVWjxnM6SNQ8cmAl6_VqRlm8N6UAQ-8w28M9-Yi6k/w300-h400/20210602_095438.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizNj6EPhoUlZGUd1Ooqetx8p79EjEDDJ-u705A2SYwqWKRrjwm5j5hASQSlqfAuNAXPLVDfGIyhTXC4MOoz8rydy_b6WnDsFXHLrYbdIB2ABms7MkWh-6zSBlyM8tXPBNN_TzJP01ojOY/s3648/20210602_101514.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizNj6EPhoUlZGUd1Ooqetx8p79EjEDDJ-u705A2SYwqWKRrjwm5j5hASQSlqfAuNAXPLVDfGIyhTXC4MOoz8rydy_b6WnDsFXHLrYbdIB2ABms7MkWh-6zSBlyM8tXPBNN_TzJP01ojOY/w400-h300/20210602_101514.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /> When we arrived in Denver, we had to hire an Uber to take us to Road Bear. Normally, they run an airport shuttle, but they have ceased since Covid. Our contract with Motorhome Republic said that an airport shuttle was included so, Road Bear agreed to refund us the cost of the Uber. It was about $50. <p></p><p>When we arrived at Road Bear we were so excited to find that it was a brand new 2022 Forester Sunseeker. It only had 1,600 miles on it! Still had that new car smell and everything! The RV was very nice. There was a queen bed in the bedroom, a couch, the dinette turned into a bed, plus a full size bed over the cab. There was a wonderful pantry space, a good size fridge, gas stoptop and a combo microwive/convection oven (we only used it as a microwave). Josiah did a great video tour for us!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6zbKIQnevpg" width="320" youtube-src-id="6zbKIQnevpg"></iframe></div><br /><p>When you rent the RV, you have the option to add on things. You can add on a Convience Kit for $70 per person/kit. This includes dishes, pots, pans, utensils, toaster, coffee maker, broom, pillow & bedding. We opted to just do one kit so that we could get the kitchen items. Each kid packed their sleeping bags and a pillow case. We bought pillows at the Walmart. Jack and I packed sheets and a quilt for our bed. We also added on a GPS unit and a internet hotspot. These were just eh. We ordered the GPS so that if our phones didn't have service we would have a gps. But our phones ended up being fine and the Google Maps had real time traffic whereas the Garmin GPS did not. If we were doing it again, I think we would skip the gps. Same goes for the hotspot. It relied on cell signals and sometimes it didn't get very strong reception. We really rarely used it. Again, I think we'd skip this next time. </p><p>We chose to not rent any other items. It was cheaper to buy them at the Walmart and then figure out what to do with them at the end of the trip! We bought the pillows, but also a crock pot, some wooden spoons, camping chairs, a board game, a few $5 DVDs (that we didn't watch!), bath towels (1 per person), a trash can, laundry detergent, dish soap and sponges- things like that. </p><p>Before we left on the trip, I made a menu and grocery lists so that on the trip I wouldn't have to worry about that. We planned to grocery shop in Denver, CO, Moab, UT and Page, AZ. But I was so pleasantly surprised by the room in the fridge and the pantry in the RV that we were able to skip the Moab stop and get more in Denver. </p><p>Estes Park, CO-</p><p>We planned to stay in the parks as much as possible, but Rocky Mountain National Park does not start renting campsites until mid-June due to there still being the possibility of snow! In fact, 3 days before we arrived they got 12 inches! So, we had to go to plan B. We stayed in <a href="https://www.larimer.org/naturalresources/parks/hermit-park#">Hermit Park</a>. The site was very nice! There are no hook-ups and the bathrooms are vault toilets (but they were so clean!!). On our way in we saw a moose right there in the campgrounds! It was quiet and nice. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaDq74_UqjCqrW1xf1ZkEZGJDUf-PjTTIobZ_mePVYkL4zkINPKCmZvaPadRDrMHtI7-FuOypWSNFGl-cCTf2wKtYFAuftYbaLTiEjnvkAPErg43PXXepNB12lwNfrJ7ak7adwivmx6cQ/s4032/20210602_171154.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaDq74_UqjCqrW1xf1ZkEZGJDUf-PjTTIobZ_mePVYkL4zkINPKCmZvaPadRDrMHtI7-FuOypWSNFGl-cCTf2wKtYFAuftYbaLTiEjnvkAPErg43PXXepNB12lwNfrJ7ak7adwivmx6cQ/w300-h400/20210602_171154.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><p>We wanted to drive up Trail Ridge Road to the Apline Visitor's center, so we decided to rent a car in Estes Park rather than drive the RV. You could save that money and drive the RV, but it was nice to have a smaller ride on that curvy road. We rented from <a href="https://www.uptopautomotive.com/">Up Top Automotive</a>. It was only $125 for the day and fit us just right. We picked it up when we arrived in Estes Park so we would have it the entire next day. </p><p>It was a great first day! </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi29Voj6j2ANI3Wfyt3E4KGUJ4ZxBKJb_9gi9ZNxHNMxNy98LAygrcceUt3fFcisS0FtjEq0J-nPZk9c_IcFXh0aKhR2TbflJfujW1_JCNNgcEk5Kc20vBQhtOHkLDiH0g8uhB3-G4J2fM/s4032/20210602_175108.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi29Voj6j2ANI3Wfyt3E4KGUJ4ZxBKJb_9gi9ZNxHNMxNy98LAygrcceUt3fFcisS0FtjEq0J-nPZk9c_IcFXh0aKhR2TbflJfujW1_JCNNgcEk5Kc20vBQhtOHkLDiH0g8uhB3-G4J2fM/w400-h300/20210602_175108.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6vrwqNCTbZ6qSzpB5Ysar77mBgT3HOAN_wo9iFCR_x5BUWY2XsVloEeJOOLynUJlE5JbtzRpKbrv9Hw68kE8WrP5CgSpYV3jiaqFcnUbVetBmBQrcrsGYl2-cdSTkkEvsH87T1ffVqrQ/s4032/20210602_180106.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6vrwqNCTbZ6qSzpB5Ysar77mBgT3HOAN_wo9iFCR_x5BUWY2XsVloEeJOOLynUJlE5JbtzRpKbrv9Hw68kE8WrP5CgSpYV3jiaqFcnUbVetBmBQrcrsGYl2-cdSTkkEvsH87T1ffVqrQ/w300-h400/20210602_180106.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4pUclMa9hBTqOchAba0c6whf04l3vr6kCETdBJQLAjYdxIFPVsw6DMzP5vj4Vaa8MyLH7-_DUV7sa5DS_T9N2awCX-rxNq4c1FEWs-EU3vGmttoIfYuxevO548tqHCu8MfpD9UIR30sE/s4032/20210602_180213.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4pUclMa9hBTqOchAba0c6whf04l3vr6kCETdBJQLAjYdxIFPVsw6DMzP5vj4Vaa8MyLH7-_DUV7sa5DS_T9N2awCX-rxNq4c1FEWs-EU3vGmttoIfYuxevO548tqHCu8MfpD9UIR30sE/w300-h400/20210602_180213.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAscdss64QgfQ5VN8wS9qxsG6dYbLtKtAgl-T9V5O_Fga07geB3aQDlJMO67YwW6CGDNdxYkTQ_g1gUO2EuFUqdrn61cMAUVoVgZCTMyS8pP-H7L6wZMBUvSkhOkmlFdPu_suI3uC_5No/s4032/20210602_183005.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAscdss64QgfQ5VN8wS9qxsG6dYbLtKtAgl-T9V5O_Fga07geB3aQDlJMO67YwW6CGDNdxYkTQ_g1gUO2EuFUqdrn61cMAUVoVgZCTMyS8pP-H7L6wZMBUvSkhOkmlFdPu_suI3uC_5No/w300-h400/20210602_183005.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfpyuThPRWWSSd0_MqPKSzITJUqZxbdN_yLFrcr1zqjl7thNnQQZ4CK8NyaH1wA1V95GFc3DLj0zQ8ZaAStpogOilJ8tgsCF4SPXcnshdfJeMkXChN8HFa8htqr-LC2mdgodMclHBJO2g/s4032/20210602_185950.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfpyuThPRWWSSd0_MqPKSzITJUqZxbdN_yLFrcr1zqjl7thNnQQZ4CK8NyaH1wA1V95GFc3DLj0zQ8ZaAStpogOilJ8tgsCF4SPXcnshdfJeMkXChN8HFa8htqr-LC2mdgodMclHBJO2g/w300-h400/20210602_185950.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlBkEhqNL7a5JzAJMR5i_NFKVpxOnMTzFyICWc7URW2yHUbsipEkh1YEfsLAJOGnBxtRabblr4vInebxm4uqk-ZsZTY4Nvu1Rg38ik47RzLTtux_KfFycnSwAFxHJs8GTdV1WuHhXs4NM/s4032/20210602_183733.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlBkEhqNL7a5JzAJMR5i_NFKVpxOnMTzFyICWc7URW2yHUbsipEkh1YEfsLAJOGnBxtRabblr4vInebxm4uqk-ZsZTY4Nvu1Rg38ik47RzLTtux_KfFycnSwAFxHJs8GTdV1WuHhXs4NM/w400-h300/20210602_183733.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />Carriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11390743067565635156noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2124064366424762291.post-36375276556152713282021-06-21T20:47:00.005-04:002021-06-23T18:56:56.846-04:00The Itinerary<p> Well, friends. Here it is. The great Blankenship Out West Adventure itinerary. The plan is that in the coming days, I will come back here to add links to the specific places we stayed, companies we used, activities we did and more! I hope this will help some of you plan an amazing adventure for yourselves. </p><p>Because of Jack's sabbatical this summer, we were able to make this a 2 week long trip. You could easily adapt this itinerary for a 1 week trip or extend it for even longer. </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLKwfBBLbidaTZXaEvzPFbMa6ue6wRsIV-ppMQB2p3TabP8Bwfgmwmj8_ibKSkHI1hi7zgRnojT4ooqudxe506ZDpqusU2kesysyQtYn3yoZlUJF6b-oiRY5T4At6IOz3z0EMa1P6mWL0/s4032/20210607_105412.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2268" data-original-width="4032" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLKwfBBLbidaTZXaEvzPFbMa6ue6wRsIV-ppMQB2p3TabP8Bwfgmwmj8_ibKSkHI1hi7zgRnojT4ooqudxe506ZDpqusU2kesysyQtYn3yoZlUJF6b-oiRY5T4At6IOz3z0EMa1P6mWL0/w400-h225/20210607_105412.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><p></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="http://carrieslittlethings.blogspot.com/2021/06/day-1-flight-and-rv.html" target="_blank">Day 1</a>- Fly to Denver.

I can hardly believe that you are already a teenager. It feels like it was not lot very long ago that you were a chubby happy baby and now you are a very skinny tall young man. How has this happened? </p><p>Noah, we are so very proud of you. You are a kind-hearted and gentle person. You are always thinking about others. Even when I asked you what kind of cake you wanted for your birthday, your first thought was about what everyone else would like. I had to make you tell me what you really wanted. I love that about you. It makes you a very good friend and a wonderful brother. When people ask who fights or fusses the most among the 4 of you, I have said, "Well, Noah gets along with everyone." And it's true- for the msot part. :) You do have your limits, like all of us do, but it takes a lot to reach your limits. </p><p>You love to be outside- in the woods or playing disc golf or in the backyard playing football with your brothers. Or, you like to be messing around on your guitar. It's been a really fun journey to watch you grow and flourish with guitar over the past year. And lately, if you aren't outside or in the music studio, you are in the living room with your nose in a book. Who would have ever thought that would be the case?!? </p><p>You are very witty. You tend to stay quiet most of the time, but when you do speak up it's because you have something funny or important to say. So, when you do speak up- you either have us in laughter or deep in thought. The other night in our family devotion, you noticed something in the scriptures that I had never thought of before and you really got us thinking and discussing. And the evening before that? Well, you were on a roll with witty remarks and you had a us all laughing. </p><p>For your 13th birthday, we had a coming of age or rite of passage for you. What a priviledge is was to watch you walk across Winthrop's campus to find people who love you and want to help guide you on this journey towards manhood. Never forget that you are not alone in this journey. Not only do you have Dad and me and your brothers and sister, but you also have grandparents, mentors and friends who love you and are here to walk with you as you grow in godliness. </p><p>Noah- you are deeply loved. I pray that you will always know this- that we think the best of you, that we see gifts in you, that we value your voice and your heart and your input. You are a gift to this family and to the body of Christ and to this world. We need you and we like you. :) Noah, I cannot wait to see all that God is going to do in you as you grow over these next several years- not only in stature (since you are already taller than me!), but also in maturity, wisdom and Christ-likeness. </p><p>Happy 13th Birthday Noah! We love you, no matter what, forever and ever. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0ZTjV47SEFIBdDJuj7k6D2MH8AxF_mfCretCnl_uBW6DgJLQnInQ_U1U25r6bMqsev__xhX6y6IiIVVhA8-XRzBmk1rX5HnfgbHxO_bIpg7xb0sDSAoHJVUkr2cTF2-cr1h6rilSIzZ0/s2048/S7300185.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

It's time for your letter from Hogwarts (as you keep reminding me!). </p><p>These past 11 years with you have been filled with crazy joy. I've told you before the story of how God gave you to me just when I really needed you. In the midst of a particularly hard season, the Lord saw fit to give me a son filled with joy and affection.</p><p>This year has been a good one for you. Another year of Showtime Theatre Company. This year is was Madagascar- where you had 6 roles, I think? During one dress rehearsal, Ms. Danielle and I giggled through the first few scenes, because "Here comes Josiah in yet another costume!" You loved every minute- especially your big stage fall as the ship captain. </p><p>You started drum lessons and are still taking piano lessons. I love to watch you flourish in the arts. Singing, acting, drums, piano- and you're begging to start guitar. Just this week, you listened to a piano line in one of our worship songs at church and figured out how to play it on the piano yourself. I can't wait to see you continue to grow and flourish with these gifts. </p><p>You finsihed reading the Harry Potter series this year, too. It sure was fun to finish them together and talk about all the characters and events. You remind me of Harry- a Gryffindor who could be a Slytherin- strong, brave, loyal, but at times impulsive and driven by emotion. </p><p>This year also held a big moment in your life- your baptism. Though you surrendered to the Gospel last summer, Dad and I were waiting for your baptism- waiting to see the work of the Lord in your life And we have seen it this year. The Lord is working in you and we are so thankful. It was a joyous day watching you publically commit to following Christ. </p><p>Josiah- you are a gift to our family. You are fun and silly. You are affectionate and loving. You are smart and courageous. You are exasperating and over the top. You feel BIG feelings. We pray that as you continue to grow, God uses these big emotions for His glory and your good. We pray that he uses them to help you connect with people, show empathy and compassion- to rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep. </p><p>Happy 11th Birthday Siah! We love you, no matter what, forever and ever!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3KehrG_MekTO4fnDRcElrzK5JVs67xKKrG3YDx28jq2ANWEzGVaKfIjxQOH3OV6lvObB6uUNCksWMoW4zHx1oX-wb3eEhQ80ybu7haw6mgqif1nzDCNG1IcPvVQCC9ayZM2b6vxXQo0g/s2048/S7300713.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em;

<br />
It's the evening of your 9th birthday. We just had the most wonderful princess spa day party. You and your friends were pampered- nails, make-up and hair- and you even had a photo shoot before a fancy patio dining experience where your brothers volunteered to serve as waiters. It was a truly wonderful day and I am pretty sure you neve stopped smiling.<br />
<br />
Eden, you are a gift to so many. You are kind and sweet and a good friend. I loved watching you with your sweet friends today. So much joy. But you are not just a gift to your friends, you are also a gift to our family. My oh my, what would we do without you?!? The Lord surely knew how much we needed your sugar and spice around here!<br />
<br />
You have grown so much this year. You performed in your first musical and shined brightly on stage. You and I have sung our hearts out in the kitchen this year, especially to Frozen 2 songs! You started piano lessons recently that I really think you have a natural talent for it. Music speaks to your heart sweet girl. Dad and I have always been amazed at how quickly you can learn a song!<br />
<br />
This was also the year of travel. You flew on a plan for the first time to Puerto Rico. We went to Auburn for a football game in the rain. We spent a weekend in Chattanooga. So much fun!<br />
<br />
You also love dogs. So much. We planned to get a puppy this summer, but the Lord had other plans. Hopefully we will get you one this winter! Though everyone is excited about adding a puppy to our family, no one as much as you. <br />
<br />
You are a good sister, but you are also a pest, too! :) I hope and pray your sweet relationship with your brothers will continue for your whole life.<br />
<br />
You are a chatterbox! Sometimes I wonder how it's possible that you never seem to run out of words to say! But I am also so thankful for our sweet conversations and for a precious daughter to talk with and shop with and sing with.<br />
<br />
Eden Frances, you are my best friend. I love you so very very deeply. You are a beautiful young lady, but what shines the brightest is your love for Jesus. I pray you will continue to ask questions, seek the truth and cling tightly to the love that Christ has for you.<br />
<br />
Happy 9th Brithday girly! We love you, no matter what, forever and ever!<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ve watched. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ve watched as we have raucously cheered black men as they
run down a green field carrying an oblong ball, but felt threatened when they
run down our streets. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ve watched as young, unarmed black men, and even black
boys as young as my own son, have been perceived as a threat and killed though
they were running away, sitting in their car, or holding a pack of skittles. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ve watched as those who say they support protests as long
as they are peaceful, are also the ones who were pleased to hear the men who
silently and peacefully took a knee in protest called SOBs and cried out in anger
over their peaceful protest. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ve watched as we have longed for diversity in our churches
and cry out “all are welcome here”, and seen that what we really mean is “all
are welcome here as long as you dress like us, talk like us, sing like us, pray
like us and worship like us” because we aren’t willing to change. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ve watched as my husband and I drove in our mini van for
months with a broken light and nothing happened- nothing, then watched as our
black friend was pulled over in less than 1 week of having a light out. He was
interrogated about where he was going, why he was in the neighborhood he was
in, what business did he have here, because of a broken light. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ve watched as my black brothers and sisters have cried out
in pain and asked us to join them. I’ve watched as we’ve decided that because
we are not personally racists then racism isn’t a problem or that because we
can’t see systemic racism (because we have the privilege of not seeing it) it’s
not there. I’ve literally sat with my black friends as they have sobbed over
the response or lack of response from their white brothers and sisters. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I hope you see how much I used the word “we” above. I am not
only looking outside of myself, but also within. I have benefited from these
systems as well. I have been unwilling to change or be uncomfortable or lay
aside my preferences for the sake of my black brothers and sisters. To my
shame. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And that’s not to say we (Jack and I) have been apathetic.
We’ve worked within our sphere to change the things that we’ve felt we have the
power and influence to change. We have listened to black voices and sought change.
We’ve had hard conversations and uncomfortable ones. We haven’t been doing nothing,
but we can do more. We must do more. It’s not enough any longer to only work in
the background, to only work in those spheres where we feel like we can make a
change. We also need to speak in the forefront, to work in the systems what we
don’t feel like we can change. It’s time to leverage our voices and our privilege.
<o:p></o:p></div>

When I was in college, I joined the Gospel Choir. I missed
singing and being in a choir and this seemed like a great place for me to find
that again. And in so many ways, I loved it. But it was also hard and uncomfortable.
I was the only white person in the choir. I had never experienced being in the
minority before. It wasn’t easy. But I pressed on. They made me feel welcome
and part of the group and I knew they liked me, so I swallowed my discomfort
and kept going, even finding myself enjoying it. It was a different style of
music than I was used to, and a whole different way of singing and I had to
adapt and learn. And then one day something happened. A rehearsal got very spirit-filled,
everyone could feel it, including me. But I was not prepared for the way that
my black brothers and sisters responded to the spirit- the exuberance unnerved
me, the charismatic nature of it put me at unease, I didn’t understand it. And
after that rehearsal, I didn’t go back again. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I wish so much I could go back to that girl and tell her not
to run. I wish I could tell her to lean into her discomfort not run away from
it. To listen, to learn, to ask questions and to embrace the discomfort. I know
now this is how so many of my black brothers and sisters feel as they navigate
primarily white spaces. And I’ve watched as they have done the hard work that
19 year old me wasn’t willing to do. I’ve watched them lean in, lay aside their
comfort, ask questions and learn for the sake of not losing this community they’ve
found themselves in. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ve been doing more of that in my own life since those days
of college. Our church outside of Atlanta was a predominately white church, but
our youth group, where Jack was the youth pastor? It was evenly split and at
times even majority black students. We made strides, but even as I look back on
that time, I think, “We could have done more. We should have done more.” I wish
I could tell younger Jack and Carrie- lean in more. Advocate more. Listen more.
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So, today I am saying there is more I can do. I am
committing to leaning in more. To listening more. To speaking up more in the spaces
that I have influence. To embracing discomfort. To having more hard
conversations. MLK eloquently said “In the end, we will remember not the
words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.”</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
In his book, <u>Just Mercy</u>, Bryan Stevenson, ends by taking
us to the story of Jesus and the woman caught in adultery. “When the woman accused
of adultery was brought to Jesus, he told the accusers who wanted to stone her
to death, “Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.” The woman’s accusers
retreated, and Jesus forgave her and urged her to sin no more. But today, our
self-righteousness, our fear, and our anger have caused even the Christians to
hurl stones at people who fall down, even when know we should forgive or show compassion.
I told the congregation that we can’t simply watch that happen. I told them we
have to be stonecatchers.” (p. 309)<o:p></o:p></div>

I will not be silent as my friends face these days. I will
not simply watch it happen. I will be a stonecatcher. <o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
Friends,<br />
I just wanted to hop on here and offer some encouragement for you during this time of "homeschooling" for all.<br />
<br />
First, let me say that this is not homeschooling. We don't stay sequestered in our homes with no contact with the world around us. We go out. We have field trips, co-ops, friend meet ups, sports, music, art- all outside of our home and all with other people! So, this is hard for us, too. Even though the schooling at home part is not new to us, the being quarantined and without our friends and activities is. This is hard for us all!<br />
<br />
Second, here are some tips, ideas and words of encouragement from me- a former public school classroom teacher and a homeschooling mom of 9 years.<br />
<br />
1. Don't try to replicate what they do at school. Schooling at home cannot and does not look like schooling at school. If you try to do that, everyone will be miserable, including you. If you have an elementary aged child, school should not last more than the morning. We are done most days by lunch, not becuase we do less work, but because when you only have one or two students (or 4!), it just doesn't take as long to finish an assignment.<br />
<br />
2. Relax. Everyone is in the same boat. Stop worrying about them falling behind or not keeping up. Just do the best you can. They will be fine! It's more important to see this as a time to invest in your kids in a way you couldn't do before.<br />
<br />
3. Have several kids? Don't try to help them all at once. That's really hard. I have a 3rd, 4th, 6th and 8th grader..... I can't teach them all at one time when they are on such different levels! I have some working on independent work, while I sit down and help others. Everyone is schooling, but not everyone is needing mom at the same time.<br />
<br />
4. BUT do try to do things together! Be creative. School does not have to look like only paper and pencil (or computer) tasks. Read aloud together- read through a chapter book during this time! That IS edcuation! Start the Harry Potter series. Or the Chronicles of Narnia. Or the Wingfeather Saga by Andrew Peterson. If you don't like to read aloud, use an audio book. Everyone can snuggle up and listen together. Watch documentaries together. Check out YouTube for vidoes for kids on certain topics. Again, snuggle up and watch them together. Go outside when the weather is nice- take a walk, read outside, be together. This IS education. They don't have to write a reflection afterwards, or answer comprehension questions for it to be education. Just the experience is part of learning. It is adding another brick to this person you are helping to build.<br />
<br />
5. Also working from home while you try to homeschool? Me too! I work part time and homeschool. It's not easy, for sure. But it's possible. I try to set aside a few hours where I am wholey dedicated to homeschooling- focused on helping my kids learn and investing in them. This is usually 8:30 am-Noon each day. Before 8:30 am and afternoon and sometimes in the evening if necessary, that's when I can get work done. It's not set in stone.... sometimes a kid is having a hard day and we need to keep working past noon. Other days, they fly right through and we're done by 11. Be flexible even within your schedule.<br />
<br />
6. Use stations to keep your kids busy while you get things done. We use this alot when the weather is bad. Create centers or stations that they can rotate through- art, music, Legos, reading, puzzles, board games, screen time etc.... spend 30 minutes at a station and then rotate to the next. If my kids are getting along, they might all be together and everyone is doing the same things. If they are getting on each other's nerves, then I split them up and everyone is at a different station. This keeps them busy for up to 2 hours! Set a 30 minute timer and let them go for it.<br />
<br />
7. Use this time to teach other skills. Can I tell you how many college guys don't know how to do laundry? Or make their own meal? So many. Teach your kids how to do their own laundry. They might not think it's fun- who does think laundry is fun?!?!- but it's an important life skill. My kids wash, dry, fold and put away their own laundry each week. Is it perfect? Hardly. But their learning this skill. They know how to use a washing machine and dryer, how to pre-treat stains, and even how to fold the Marie Kondo way. Teach them how to cook. Force them to make their own lunch. Let them make dinner one night.<br />
<br />
8. Sleep in! I cannot stress this enough. If your kids are old enough to sleep in past 7, let them! Within reason. We can't sleep until noon and still be productive, but they can sleep until 8:30 or 9. There's a sense to which this quarantine is a forced rest. Let them rest.<br />
<br />
9. Use music if your kids are musical. I have started letting mine wear headphones and listen to music while they work. This has been great for them. It keeps them from getting distracted by each other. Some of them can listen to any music and still concentrate on work. Others have to listen to classical or instrumental music while they work because they starting singing otherwise. This may not work for everyone, but's it's been a good way for my kids to keep focused on the work before them. <br />
<br />
10. Try to enjoy this time as much as you can. It's hard. Yes, it is. I told Jack last night, there's a reason most vacations last a week. Now that we're over a week in, these people are getting on my nerves! We didn't choose this quarntine or this virus. But we can choose joy. Try to enjoy the moments that you can. Embrace this forced family fun. For the first time in a long time, the family is again the center of life. There are no other activities, experiences, people or places to be. So, as best as you can, embrace it. My personal social feed is usually filled with only happy and positive posts. I don't do this to try to create an image that our life is perfect. I just don't feel the need to complain or "be real" on social media about things. There's nothing wrong if you do share complaints or struggles, certainly. But my posts are really for me more than they are for anyone else. They are a moment in time to remind myself of all the good, all the blessings around me. And when the memories of those posts pop up, I am again reminded of this. So, snap a picture of a happy moment each day- and post it or don't post it- but either way remind yourself that this is good and that happiness can be found even in the darkest of times if one only remembers to turn on the light (Dumbledore).<br />

<br />
It's the evening of your fourteenth birthday. How is that even a true sentence I just wrote? Can you really be 14? I feel like just yesterday you were calling yourself "Buh-ligh" and talking our ears off about all things animals. Of course that could be becuase you still talk our ears off, though you can say your own name now!<br />
<br />
Have I told you how much I love that you still talk our ears off? How much I love that you want me and dad to be involved in your life? I love so much that you care what we think and that you like to talk to us. I love our conversations and I love watching you growing into manhood.<br />
<br />
You still love all things animals. How many 14 year old enjoy reading science books for fun? Well, you do, as long as it involves animals. I can't wait to see how God uses this interest/passion you have for wildlife.<br />
<br />
You are now taller than me. You came into the kitchen Friday night and hugged me and thanked me for making your birthday cake and I realized I couldn't rest my chin on your shoulder anymore when we hug. When did that happen? It seems like you are taller every morning.<br />
<br />
You've been taking high school level courses this year and you've handled it like a champ. I am truly amazed when I think of how you've just jumped in and figured out how to balance all the extra work this year.<br />
<br />
You are still a bookworm. You never go anywhere without a book to read and as always, I can't get you to the library often enough since you finish books so quickly! And whenever you don't have a book to read, you just grab a Harry Potter book and pick up wherever you feel like it. Between that and Star Wars, we're due for an Orlando vacation!<br />
<br />
This past year was a big one for you. You went on your first international mission trip to the Netherlands. I am so very thankful I got to experience that with you. You also got to visit Puerto Rico and the rainforest- a dream come true for a future biologist!<br />
<br />
It's been a joy to watch you this year growing more into your faith, studying the scriptures and starting to serve the church. The way you have jumped into serving at church and have proven to be reliable and trustworthy makes me so proud. As you continue to grow, I pray you would make that your goal always- to let your yes be yes and your no be no, to be a man of your word who can be trusted to do what he says he will do.<br />
<br />
You are a great brother, although bossy and stubborn at times. :) Your siblings know that you will always take care of them. You are a good friend, too. I am so thankful for the healthy and godly friendships you have in your life. I pray that you would keep seeking out friends who help you grow closer to Jesus and who encourage you in godliness and truth.<br />
<br />
Caleb, what an absolute joy it is to be your mom. You changed my life forever 14 years ago. I cherish every moment I've had as your mom and I can't wait to see all that God is going to do in your life over the next several years. I am so proud of you and so thankful for you.<br /><br />Happy 14th Birthday Caleb! We love you, no matter what, forever and ever.<br />

<br /></div>
<div>
It's your 12th birthday! It's late- 11:20 pm- almost not your birthday. But I couldn't let the day end without writing your birthday letter. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
What a joy it's been to be your mom for the past 12 years. You were the sweetest baby and an easy one too (exept for the ear infections!). You slept well, you ate well, you grew well. You were a serious baby, and in some ways, you are a serious pre-teen today. But when you're with the people who know you best, you're funny, silly and full of mischief. You are serious and quiet in crowds and with people you don't know well, so much so that they are surprised when you speak up. But when you do speak up, it's witty or insightful or interesting what you have to say. I always tell people, "Noah doesn't say much, but when he does speak, you shoud listen." I love that about you. I love when your teachers at a church tell me how insightful your answers are. Keep that up, son. Keep observing, learning, and growing. And try to be more bold! What you have to say is important, so speak up! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In the past year, you have had some big and awesome changes in your life. The most important was your baptism last March. Though you gave your life to Christ in the summer, it took a while for you to work up the courage to face the entire congregation for baptism. Dad and I were so proud of you that day, more than I know how to even say. Watching you make public what Christ had done in your life, knowing how much you don't like to be the center of attention, it was encouraging, challenging and just perfect. Facing your fears for the glory of Christ. What a day it was. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You also embarked on a new hobby. Last year, you saved up your money to buy your own guitar and you started guitar lessons. You have really enjoyed it. You still hate attention, and won't really play for us, but when I sneak a peek during your lessons, I see the happiness on your face and your interest in what Nate is teaching you. I love it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You went to your first dance, where, I'm told, you did not dance at all or really talk to anyone but Caleb and Elizabeth. We're working on that. But best memory- teaching you to slow dance in the kitchen before sending you off. It was a big step just for you to go to the dance. Maybe next time, you'll find your way to the dance floor or into a converstation! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You've also really started to enjoy reading (thank you Ranger's Apprentice and John Flanagan!). Finally! :) You love to be outside and hiking and climbing and disc golf and football and nerf wars and whatever else you and your brothers come up with to do. The trip to Puerto Rico was right up your alley, for sure. You wear a baseball cap at all times. I think you would wear it to sleep if we let you. Speaking of sleep, you are my non-morning person buddy. Waking you up is like trying to wake the dead sometimes! I love that we have that in common. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Noah- I love being your mom. You are gentle and sweet, kind and humble. I love watching you love others. I am so proud of the young man that God is molding you into. Keep learning and growing, keep seeking Him and doing hard things for Him. Next year, you'll be a teenager. A lot is going to change in next few years, but one thing will never change- the love of God for you and the love we have for you. I pray you always remember that. On good days, on hard days, on sweet days and bitter ones- God loves you and we love you. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Happy Birthday, Noah! We love you, no matter what, forever and ever. </div>
<div>

<br />
Today we have had you in our family for a whole decade! Can you believe you are 10 years old?!?!? I cannot. What a roller coaster of fun these 10 years have been.<br />
<br />
Josiah, you are so much fun. Your laughter is contagious and your personality is BIG, as are your emotions. You are a deep feeler- when you feel something- joy, happiness, silliness, sadness, anger- you feel it big. What a gift this is- your ability to feel deeply and empathize. We are so thankful for this gift and pray that God will continue to help you use these big emotions for His glory and for your sanctification.<br />
<br />
This past year was a big one for you. You were in your first full stage musical- with a solo!- and you LOVED every minute of it. Friends and family came to see you shine, and boy did you shine. We absolutely loved watching you.<br />
<br />
You also made a really important decision. This summer at Camp McCall, you realized that although you knew the Gospel, you had not trusted the Gospel to save you. I'll always remember sitting with you after camp in the living room as you surrendered to the call of God and the Gospel on your life. Your heart was so open and so honest and it was a honor that God allowed your dad and I to witness it.<br />
<br />
Since that moment, we have seen God working in your life, helping you learn to control your emotions and deal with the big feelings you have. We've seen so much growth in you already!<br />
<br />
Josiah, your name means God Heals, and out of a season of pain and struggle, God gave us you. A son who laughs big, who loves big, who smiles big. You are a gift to this family. You challenge us, you love us, you help us feel, you make us laugh and we are so thankful that God gave us you!<br />
<br />
Happy 10th Birthday Siah! We are praying for you as God continues to do the work he has begun in you. We love you, no matter what, forever and ever!<br />

Thirteen is a big deal. It's the beginning of the transition from childhood to adulthood. It doesn't mark adulthood, not yet, but it is the beginning of a new phase- one that means more responsibility and more challenges as one approaches adulthood. It's the preparation years, the training ground. And so, for the past 13 years, Jack has talked about wanting to make that birthday not just a celebration of the past, but a looking forward to manhood- a rite of passage.<br />
<br />
We wanted to have people speak into Caleb's life- people who were already doing that in many ways. His teachers at church, his college friends, his mentors and his family. The idea was to kind of recreate the "pathway" to adulthood. As he walked along that pathway, there would be people along the way who would talk with him, share God's word and pray with him and then walk with him until they reached the next stop. We tried to reserve several locations for the event, but in the end we used Winthrop and the BCM building as our pathway. At the end of the pathway, we had a surprise party with all of his friends.<br />
<br />
Our good friend, Garrett, was also along the pathway, sneakily taking pictures to help us document this rite of passage. Caleb had no idea what was happening. He thought we were going out to dinner for his birthday. Instead, we drove up to campus and dropped Caleb off. Jack told him that he had to walk to BCM and that we would meet him there.<br />
<br />
What an amazing night it was. The walk to BCM was so wonderful. Of course, I was not there, but I am so thankful we have the photos. Jack and I were waiting for him at the end for our turn to talk with him and pray with him before we went inside for his party. The party was, of course, Harry Potter themed. The cake was made by my amazingly talented friend, Danielle Lukens and it was over the top incredible. I made lots of food with Harry Potter names. We played games and hung out. Jack presented Caleb with a sword that was engraved with his name and his life verse (Numbers 14:24). Jack told him the sword was to remind him to "Fight the good fight of faith (1 Tim. 6:12)." The sword hangs in his room as a reminder of that.<br />
<br />
We are praying that this day back in February, will be forever seared into his memory. That he will always remember how many people love him, pray for him, encourage him and how many people he has to walk with him on this journey.<br />
<br />
Words cannot adequately express how very very thankful I am to everyone who helped make this day possible. From my team of girls who helped me do all the Harry Potter decorations and helped with the food, my mom who was a lifesaver with the food as well, Danielle for the incredible cake, and especially everyone who was on the pathway that night. Thank you for loving our son, for speaking into his life, not just on this night, but all of the time. How incredibly grateful we are that the Lord has given us such wonderful friends and a community who invests in our children.<br />
<br />
Enjoy these pictures from the day!<br />

<br />
I missed everyone's birthday posts last year. I am determined not to miss them again this year though!<br />
<br />
I can't believe you are eight already. The time is just flying by. What a precious eight years it has been. Adding you to this family was an unexpected joy. The Lord was so good to give us your effervescent spirit!<br />
<br />
This past year you've grown so much. You are so tall, and since it's July, you are also so brown! It's been a joy to watch you blossom- to be a good friend, to understand the Word more, to love your brothers well.<br />
<br />
Eden, you are a chatterbox! Who knew there were so many words to say?!?! I think you've spoken more words this year than Noah has his entire life! But I love our talks and our time together. You ask good questions and your desire to know the truth is wonderful. You are sensitive and compassionate. But tough with all the boys in your life- your brothers and the college guys too!<br />
<br />
You still love to dance and sing. You still sing yourself to sleep at night and write your own songs. You are so excited to join Josiah doing musicals this year and I am positive you will love every minute.<br />
<br />
Happy 8th birthday precious girl! We pray that you always know how much we love you, but even more how much God loves you. We pray you continue to grow in your love and knowledge of him. We love you no matter what forever and ever<br />
<br />

<br />
You are 12 years old! Already! What a fun day we had today. You said you wanted to do something with animals for your birthday. We just went to the Zoo this week for our monthly homeschool class, so you asked if we could go to an aquarium. We went to the small Sea Life Aquarium in Charlotte and even did a "Back Stage Tour" to get to see how they care for the animals. Then you got to spend your birthday money at the Lego Store and the Disney Store. We ended the evening with pie and ice cream with friends. You asked for blueberry pie and ice cream instead of cake this year.<br />
<br />
You year in review- you started serving at church on the sound/media team, doing the computer and the lights on Sunday mornings. My favorite moment from this year- one Sunday, Jordan forgot to put one of the songs into the slide show. When we got to song in the service, you didn't have any words to put on the screen..... so you typed onto the screen "Sorry no words." Oh my. I love you kid. Everyone chuckled, a friend helped you find the song and add it to the slide show and about halfway through, the words were there. And Jordan loved it. He said it was the perfect way to cut the tension of the moment.<br />
<br />
You played Flag Football in the fall and I was so proud of the team mate that you were. You had one friend on the team, also named Caleb, but the rest of the team was strangers. You were a true team player- playing whatever position you were needed in and cheering for all your team mates. It thrilled me when you caught a touchdown pass because you had spent all season cheering for the rest of your team as they scored.<br />
<br />
You are taking Algebra I this year and kicking tail. You are still a voracious reader- we can't keep books in your hands you read them so fast! <br />
<br />
Caleb, it's so hard to put into words how I feel about you turning 12. You are growing up so fast and I really wish I could slow it down! But I also love watching you grow. You are growing into such a delightful and precious young man. You are smart and kind. You are a good friend and a natural leader. You are stubborn and sometimes too smart for your own good, but so is your momma, so you come by it naturally. I am so thankful for the way that God has been working in your heart this year. It is such a joy to watch you grow in Christlikeness and love for those around you. I am challenged by your devotion to the Word. You are a very special young man and I can't wait to see how God uses you for His glory. Caleb, your dad and I are so very grateful to be your parents. What a gift we were given 12 years ago! We pray that you would continue seeking the Lord, that He would draw you deeper into his grace and that you would grow in wisdom and knowledge of Him. Happy 12th birthday Bubby! We love you, no matter what, forever and ever.<br />

<br />
It's the night of your 10th birthday. What a wonderful day it has been! It snowed about 3 inches today. We celebrated with friends and played in the snow all day.<br />
<br />
I really can't believe you are ten years old, my sweetest boy. It's hard to believe that my rolly-polly baby is now a tall bean pole of a boy.<br />
<br />
This year you played flag-football and you really seemed to hit your groove. You were a great running back, patient to find your holes and then exploding with speed and moves like Kerryon Johnson or Le'veon Bell. It sure was fun to watch you. You also ran your first Triathlon this past summer and came in 3rd! You really seemed to enjoy it- even in the July heat!<br />
<br />
Besides sports, you also really like to draw. Lasts Spring you took a watercolor class, which you enjoyed, but this fall we were able to get you started with drawing classes. You have loved your weekly class with Garrett. It's really nice to watch you have your own thing.<br />
<br />
Noah, you are joy to be around. Quiet and unassuming, you always put others before yourself. As a brother and as a friend, you love so well. It's been really sweet watching your friendship with Josiah, especially, flourish this year.<br />
<br />
Every night, at bedtime, you like to tell me that you love me more. But, buddy, it's just not possible. You are a beautiful gift to me. Your gentle spirit challenges me and touches me. I love the way you care for others, the way you listen so well. I love watching you grow and become your own person. Noah Jackson, so like your daddy, we pray that God would continue calling you to himself, that you would grow in your knowledge of him and understanding of the gospel. We're so thankful we get to call you our son. We love you, no matter, what forever and ever. Happy 10th Birthday Noah-bear!<br />

<br />
Yesterday, you turned 8. Yes, I know. I'm a day late. What can I say? We just had too much fun this weekend celebrating you- I got distracted!<br />
<br />
You are more fun that I knew a child of mine could be. You are funny and unpredictable and you keep us on our toes. Josiah, you're the kid in the family with the big emotions. If you are happy, you just shine with your happiness. And when you love, you love big. And when you are sad, well, let's just say you feel things deeply. I love that about you.<br />
<br />
You have grown a lot this year- in a lot of ways. You are finally starting to enjoy reading. You've always been a good reader, but you just haven't really loved books. You still aren't there, yet, but when you read the Spiderwick Chronicles this year, something finally clicked with you and books. You are a math whiz. You just get it- and you love it. On Friday, you asked me to if you could do an extra math lesson- in a curriculum that is 2 grade levels ahead. Math is just your thing, I guess. Of all of the kids, you are the most natural athlete. You are fast and coordinated. Maybe sports will be your thing, too.<br />
<br />
You still love Legos, and your Kindle. 9 times out of 10, if you have free time, those are the 2 things you want to do. You finally lost your first tooth last month! That feels like a big accomplishment at this point. You love music and you love to sing. You are begging me to start piano lessons, so, I guess we better get on that!<br />
<br />
You have grown so much in your understanding of the Lord and his Word this year. When we have family devotions or our Bible time at school, I love listening to you explain what you are learning and talk about God. <br />
<br />
Josiah Robert, what a gift you are to this family. You bring the joy and the laughter up a level. You are fun and affectionate and you love big. Daddy and I are so thankful for you, buddy. We pray that God will keep revealing himself to you and that you will grow in faith, hope and love for Him. Happy 8th Birthday Siah! We love you, no matter what, forever and ever.<br />

<br />
It's the evening of your 6th birthday. It's been a super busy day. You started out at Nature Navigators- a nature camp where you played in the dirt and collected earth worms today- with your bare hands. Then we came home, cleaned up, put on a dress, did your hair, put on lip gloss and headed to the nail salon with friends for a mani/pedi. This day describes you to a T, my girly little tomboy.<br />
<br />
6 years with a lot of sugar and spice and everything nice in our house. You are growing in a precious young lady. You are sweet and kind- you love to hug, you want to be a mom, you are a good friend. But you are also tough as nails- you don't put up with anything from those brothers of yours, you are super rough with the college guys (sometimes I have to tell you to be gentler!). You still love everything princess and dress up. You love to dance and sing.<br />
<br />
You learned to read this year and you are doing really well! It was a joy to be your teacher. I loved watching you learn and grow. You loved dance again this year- ballet and tap. Disney World was a very fun trip for you- we saw so many princesses. I'll always remember the wonder on your face as you met the "real" princesses. You swam on the swim team this year and I was so proud of you! You were the youngest on the team, but you did a great job. By the final meet, you swam all 4 strokes and came in 1st in backstroke.<br />
<br />
Eden, you are my sweet best friend. I love our time together- snuggled up on the couch watching "girl shows." You are such a gift to me and I am so grateful God saw fit to bless us with you. Daddy and I love you so much and we pray that God will grown you into a godly young woman who loves and follows Him above all else. Happy 6th Birthday my Eden girl. I love you, no matter what, forever and ever.<br />

It's hard to believe. I remember being so nervous and so excited to meet you. We had already chosen your name, Caleb for Caleb in the Bible- the spy with Joshua who remained faithful to God even in the midst of intimidating circumstances and immense peer pressure, and Moffett after me and my family. We had already fallen head over heals in love with you through your sonogram pictures, feeling you move, praying for you, talking to you. You were born at 6:01 pm on a Friday. Your head was huge. I'll always remember the doctor exclaiming- "Whoa, big head!" You looked just like me, and your Pop-Pop, and you were perfect. I remember that your dad couldn't stop crying. I'd look over at him while we were in the hospital and he'd just be staring at you and crying. It's pretty overwhelming, becoming a parent.<br />
<br />
You were an exceptional baby. Seriously. You ate like a champ, you slept through the night- 9 hours!- when you were 9 weeks old- a perfectionist/Type A even as a baby, I think! You spoke early- and a lot. Man, could you ever talk- that has not changed!<br />
<br />
Caleb Moffett, man, being your mom for the past 11 years has been a dream come true. You have grown from a sweet and easy baby to a smart and responsible young man. You love the Lord and it is so evident He is working in your life. You are reading your Bible every morning and discussing what you read with Dad, you are running the computer for worship at BCM, you have started serving on the set-up team at church. You are an exceptional helper. If I ask you to do anything, I know you will do it, almost always with a cheerful and willing heart.<br />
<br />
You have excelled in your studies- doing math 2 years ahead and reading on an 8th grade level. You love to read- we can't keep you stocked with books! Yesterday afternoon you checked out a book from the library. Today at lunch, I noticed you were on page 190! You are an expert at all things Harry Potter and Star Wars. You are an excellent conversationalist and still enjoy talking a lot!<br />
<br />
You are a natural leader and younger kids always follow your lead. But you are also gentle and kind- especially to younger kids. They look up to you, but you never act like you are too old to play with them or talk to them and you make them feel included and listened to. I love that about you.<br />
<br />
You are also stubborn and opinionated- I might know where those traits come from ;) We're a lot alike, you and me. And sometimes that means we have conflict- but usually it just means we get each other. I get you. You get me. We might fuss, but we forgive easily.<br />
<br />
Caleb, I don't know that the future holds for you. But I pray you will continue to seek after the Lord, to love serving others, to lead well and grow in wisdom. Your Dad and I love you so much and we are so proud of the young man you are becoming, right before our eyes. Happy 11th Birthday, Bubby. Thanks for making me a mom. I love you, no matter what, forever and ever.<br />

<br />
You are 9 years old today. It is astounding how quickly the years are going by. How can we already be halfway to 18? Just yesterday you were a chunky little baby- an easy breezy baby boy. Or a crazy toddler trying to keep up with big brother. But here we are and it's the first day of your last year in the single digits.<br />
<br />
You were an easy baby- except for the ear infections. You slept well, ate well and were only fussy when your ears hurt. You were our stoic baby, funny to think of now that we thought you'd be our serious child.<br />
<br />
At 9 years old, you are far from serious. You are silly and happy, almost constantly. You are kind and gentle- always willing to give away what is yours in order to bless those around you. You challenge me to think more of others myself. You are not the chatter box that your brothers and sister are, you keep things inside more. But you are always observing and listening, even when I think you are not. You best me almost everyday in school, when it looks to me like you are not paying attention, so I start asking you questions and you can answer every one- to perfection!<br />
<br />
You are very tall for your age- and very skinny. You are when they call a "bean pole." It makes you clumsy at times, being so tall so quickly! I can't wait to see how tall you will be when you are grown. You played flag football this fall and you had caught an interception and scored a touchdown- a pick six! I'll never forget the look of joy on your face. I wish I had a video.<br />
<br />
You love to draw and next week are starting art classes. Who knows where that might take you! It's really great to see you enjoy something that is just yours.<br />
<br />
Of course, you also love football and Star Wars and Legos and disc golf, just like your brothers. You don't seem to love reading, yet, but you do love stories and hopefully that will grow into a love of reading one day, too. This past year you grew your hair long- and you loved it. You do have the coolest hair- even your short style is pretty long, and awesome. We went to Disney World this year and had a great time- especially in Hollywood Studios with all the Star Wars stuff. And of course, we all love Harry Potter. Your Draco Malfoy Halloween costume was amazing. You make the perfect Draco in looks, not in attitude! <br />
<br />
Noah, you are a joy and a gift to this family. You bring light and a gentleness to our world that we desperately need. I am loving watching you grow up. Your dad and I pray that God will keep working in you as we can already see He is doing. We pray that He would save you and transform you into the image of Christ. He's already given you such a sweet personality and heart, I can't wait to see Him use you for His glory.<br />
<br />
We love you, no matter what, forever and ever. Happy 9th Birthday Noah Jackson.<br />
<br />

We had a great day!<br />
<br />
The park was super crowded because it was the only day of the week that Magic Kingdom didn't close early for Mickey's Halloween Party. So, I guess everyone made Wednesday their Magic Kingdom day. But we still had a great time.<br />
<br />
Eden got to see lots of Princesses! She also got to wear her amazing Rapunzel dress that was made by her Nana. She loved every minute. Disney really does it up right. The princesses were awesome- they even sounded like their animated counterparts! Eden had full on conversations with them. Even the workers who monitored the lines were awesome. When we were waiting for our turn with Ariel, the guy holding the line asked Eden where Pascal was (the chameleon in Tangled). She giggled when she realized he "thought" she was Rapunzel.<br />
<br />
The meeting Belle is an experience, not just a meeting. We timed it perfect, as the line had been long all day, but got in when it was just a 15 minute wait. Josiah was chosen to be the Beast because his roar was so awesome. He was so cute dancing with Belle!<br />
<br />
All day long the kids were dying to ride the Seven Dwarf's Mine Train, but the wait time was over 3 hours all day. We decided to try to watch the fireworks from behind Cinderella's castle instead of in front, just in case the line went down during the fireworks. When the fireworks started, the line time was still 2 hours and I told the kids it probably wasn't going to happen. By this time it was 10 pm- so major meltdown happened. Then as the fireworks were going, I looked up and the sign said 70 minutes. I told Jack I was going to go over and ask the girl monitoring the line if it was really 70 minutes. She told me it was probably less- so I motioned to everyone to come quickly! We ended up standing in line for only 5 minutes!!! It was awesome!! And the kids LOVED it. Highlight of the day.<br />
<br />
We stayed in Magic Kingdom until after midnight! The kids did amazing! I was so proud of them. We got there at 8 AM and stayed until after midnight and everyone had a great time.We got to ride almost everything we wanted, except Space Mountain. The line was long all day and we just didn't get a chance to ride it. But we had an awesome day!<br />

<br />
We had a wonderful trip. We stayed off the resort to save money and spent 3 days in the parks. We got to do almost everything we wanted to do. It really was an awesome time.<br />
<br />
The kids are the perfect ages. Caleb is still young enough that he enjoyed everything- even the characters. Noah and Josiah were as well. And Eden was precious. She loved every moment with the princesses. We got to hug 10 princesses. She ran into their arms, asked them questions, and was just absolutely precious.<br />
<br />
We spent our first day in Epcot and Animal Kingdom. In Epcot, the boys' favorite was Test Track. We got to ride the new Frozen ride, which was really great! And we met Elsa and Anna. We rode the new Soarin' ride, too, which was really fun. And the Mars one. We met Goofy and Mickey, too.<br />
<br />
Then in Animal Kingdom we were able to do the Safari ride and Jack, Caleb and Noah rode Everest, while Eden, Josiah and I rode the triceratops ride. Noah LOVED Everest. My sweet and gentle boy loves roller coasters. Caleb liked it, but not the part that went backwards. <br />
<br />
We ended the day at Hollywood Studios to see the Fantasmic night show. It rained on us during the show, but we just put on our ponchos and made the best of it! We had a great first day!!<br />

<br />
Today is your 7th birthday. I am still not sure how that happened. You're still asleep and the house is quiet this morning, but the moment you wake up that will no longer be true!<br />
<br />
You are a ball of energy! And the light in this family. You make everyone smile- everyone. Friends, family, even strangers in the grocery store- they all smile when you are around. You are funny and happy. You are by far the most affectionate one in the family. Hugs are your love language and you give them out freely and regularly. What a joy! You are exactly what this family needs.<br />
<br />
This year you are getting to do "big school" with your brothers, something you are very excited about. I love teaching you. You love to learn and you are really smart! Although getting you to sit down and read a book is still a challenge!<br />
<br />
You are also by far the most athletic in the family. You literally climb the walls in our house (thanks American Ninja Warrior!). You climb trees and love sports and this year you even loved swimming.<br />
<br />
We call you Pigpen. And with good reason. You are always dirty. Always. You have a cloud of dirt that follows you around. <br />
<br />
You are a good brother. I think you and Noah probably get along the best. It's hard being the youngest brother, but you do the best with it! You and Eden are love/hate. When you are getting along you are two peas in a pod.<br />
<br />
You have the best laugh. Last night in the car you guys were giggling about something. It was music to my ears. Seriously. You are the smile maker.<br />
<br />
Happy 7th Birthday Siah Monkey. You are a mess. We love you so very much. We know God is going to use your sweet personality! We pray for you everyday- that God would keep you safe (ha!) and that He would grown you into a man who loves Him deeply. We hope you have the best 7th birthday ever.<br />
<br />
We love you no matter what forever and ever!!!<br />
<br />

This has been the summer of home renovations. I already shared about our master bathroom addition. You can read about it and see pictures <a href="http://carrieslittlethings.blogspot.com/2016/05/master-bathroom-additionrenovation.html">here</a>.<br />
<br />
After we finished the bathroom, we moved onto the kitchen. Back in February, after we added the master bedroom closets (<a href="http://carrieslittlethings.blogspot.com/2016/05/master-bedroom-closet-and-edens-new-room.html">pics here</a>), we got the idea to change the playroom into the master bath instead of doing an addition to the house. Doing this saved us a lot of money and I got the hairbrained idea to use it on a kitchen renovation. I wanted to take down the wall between the kitchen and dining room and make it a large open room. Jack thought I was crazy, but after talking to a contractor about how to take the wall down, he decided we could do it. We did all the work ourselves except for taking out the fireplace and putting in the load bearing beam. We hired a contractor to help with that. Here is what the kitchen and dining room looked like when we bought the house.<br />

I wanted to take out that fireplace and the whole wall with the wall paper on one side and the appliances on the other. I also wanted to take out the half wall between the kitchen and playroom. And we did! We moved the appliances over the new wall we built for the master bath and tore the walls down!<br />
<br />
The results are AH-MAZING! Seriously. Transformed into my dream house. So, without further ado, here is our new kitchen/dining room combo.<br />

We tore up the original kitchen floor, took out the wall, installed a beam, patched all the sheetrock, painted, put down new harwood floors in the kitchen area and matched them up with the originals in the dining room, refinished the floors, created a cased opening into the hallway, and lots of little decor touches.<br />

Jack built the gorgeous island in the center of the kitchen. I love it. He even ran electricity to it so I can use a mixer and blender and such on it. I did a shiplap type treatment around the 3 sides and I got the stools at Target. The top is a two pieces of cabinet grade ash from Lowes that Jack joined and I stained. It was so much cheaper than buying butcher block!<br />

I did the same shiplap on the bottom of the dining room walls and covered over the navy blue that was there. It looks great!<br />

I also sanded and stained the butcher block counter top we already installed when we moved in. I stained it darker to match the island and farm table.<br />

Jack and I sometimes sit in our new kitchen and I say, "I can't believe we did this!" But we did and we did it on a dime, too! It's going to be a great place for family dinners and BCM leadership gatherings and Bible studies and homeschool for years and years to come.<br />

And that pretty much sums up the Blankenship summer! We did manage a beach vacation back in May and a weekend in Virginia in June with Jack's parents and a weekend in June at the lake with my family. Maybe one day I'll get those pics posted, but school starts next week, so don't hold your breath!<br />
<br />
I guess you can call us the new Chip and Joana Gaines! We took out a wall and put in a kitchen island, with "shiplap." So, what do you think of our Fixer Upper??? :) <br />

<br />
I can hardly believe it has been 5 years since God blessed our family with sugar and spice and everything nice! You are such a precious gift to this family.<br />
<br />
At 5 years old, you are spunky and sassy. There's never a doubt that you are in charge when you are around! You still love all things princess and girly. Aunt Stacey got you a make-up set for your birthday- oh goodness!- and I imagine it will be a daily application! You love pink and purple and you want to wear dresses everyday. BUT- you also love to climb trees and hold worms and go fishing. My girly tomboy.<br />
<br />
You love the pool and you have become a really good swimmer! You passed the swim test this year at the pool when you were still 4! Your best friends are Olivia Kiehn and Olivia Mueller. You call them the "red Olivia" and the "brown Olivia" because of their hair color.<br />
<br />
You love music and singing. Your Dad and I are always amazed at how quickly you can pick up a song and know the words. My favorite is watching you worship in church. You raise your hands with abandon and sing with all your heart to the Lord. I love it. You also love to dance. You took tap and ballet this year and did 2 numbers in your recital. You had the biggest smile on your face the entire time you were on stage. <br />
<br />
Eden, you are beautiful inside and out. You are a sweet friend, a loving sister and a wonderful little girl. We love you so much! I am praying that God would already be working in your heart and that you would know Him as the only true source of significance and beauty. I love you so much. Everyday you tell me that I am your best friend. I hope that never changes. Your dad adores you, as do your brothers. I hope you always always know how very loved you are.<br />
<br />
Happy 5th Birthday, princess!! We love you, no matter what, forever and ever!<br />

The master bathroom is complete. As I mentioned before, we planned to add on a bathroom and closet last summer. But those plans got derailed and we made new plans this spring. We added a closet to the master bedroom and redid Eden's room so that we no longer needed a playroom. (If you missed that post, you can find it <a href="http://carrieslittlethings.blogspot.com/2016/05/master-bedroom-closet-and-edens-new-room.html" target="_blank">here</a>).<br />
<br />
Last summer, we went to Cline's up in North Carolina to search for a dresser we could convert into our vanity and a clawfoot tub we could refinish. We found gems! And they've been waiting a year to be given some TLC.<br />

On April 8 we got the approval and picked up our building permits. Jack got started the next day (thanks Hunter and Davis for the help!) turning this into our master bathroom. <br />

While they worked inside, I started working on refinishing the clawfoot tub. I started by sanding the outside 3 times. Once with 80 grit, then 120 grit and finally 220 grit sand paper.<br />

Jack got the walls studded that first weekend and then our plumber came out to run all the pipes. Jack did almost all the work on this bathroom himself. Our friend, Jim, helped Jack with all the electrical work- cause he's awesome.<br />
<br />
We refinished the clawfoot tub. After I sanded, I painted the outside and the feet. Then we cleaned the inside, sanded it, cleaned it again, used acid to acid etch it and then refinished it with a spray on epoxy.<br />
<br />

<br />
We refinished the dresser as well- sanded, new paint, new knobs, repaired the marble top, modified the drawers for the plumbing, and cut a hold for the sink pipes. <br />
<br />
We decided to keep the original hardwood floors, so Jack refinished them. <br />
<br />
It was a lot of late nights and long weekends, but on May 11 we had our final inspection. It took 1 month to go from playroom to master bathroom! Not too bad. That's why he's the best husband ever. So without further ado------ I present to you, our new master bathroom.<br />

We wanted to keep part of the built in cabinet. Jack took off the glass door and moved the solid doors to the top. Then he closed in the bottom part. Now it's a great medicine cabinet! <br />
