What began as two friends trying out different churches has now evolved into what some call “THE Power Couple”. This is our documentation of our stories and adventures we encounter together. And no, we are not normal.

Canyon Adventure

July 22

This adventure led us straight to DonMark's home!

To say I was nervous would be an understatement. I asked DM TONS of questions about anything you could imagine.

She was very nervous, but had no reason to be. I was excited about this adventure as it had been a while since my last visit.


This adventure took us on another car ride journey with the kids. Shockingly enough...we made it the whole way with ZERO stops! Right away the kids wanted to see the horses.

That is a first for the kids, and no DVD player!!! Thanks again Abilene Public Library.

The next day we headed out to the Canyons. It was ridiculously hot..as we expected, but still fun. The kids had a great time and really that is all that matters. We stayed to have lunch then back home we went...for nap time!

For the majority of the time DonMark was up in the attic working on the airconditioner and Julianna (obviously stayed far away from that mess) and hung out with the kids/DonMark's mom/Gretchen. It was eventful! :)

Never heard so much banging on the ceiling in my life. I was very content sitting in the A/C and hanging out with everyone else!

The AC deal was frustrating on many levels, but we got the problem solved which is nice. 

The next day was church and then a RACE! Yeah you heard that correctly a race.

For some reason Wyatt got the idea that we needed to race or at least he wanted to race against Pa...somehow I managed to be on Wyatts team against Pa and DonMark. This was talked up A LOT. There was even a search for a baton to hand off. Soooo fun!!! After we raced, we were standing around laughing and then Emme...bursts out running the same path we had just taken. It was cute and hysterical.

One of the top Taz moments of all time!!

I got to take a little stroll on a horse...along with DonMark.







The kids also did a little Treasure Hunt with Pa & GT. I loved watching that! So cute and such a great idea!! I know they enjoyed it!

I feel EXTREMELY grateful to be a part of DonMark's life and the kids lives as well. A girl couldn't ask for more.

Overall, this was a great trip. The kids had a blast and I think the adults did too. Glad Gretch could come be a part of the craziness.
