Jon and Jenetta: Ohana's last day of kindergarten
http://jonandjenetta.blogspot.com/2011/05/ohanas-last-day-of-kindergarten.html
Saturday, May 21, 2011. Ohana's last day of kindergarten. We enjoyed a fun little ceremony at Ohana's school yesterday morning. Here is a taste of it:. I missed them announcing her name - lots of parents with cameras in my way! They did a few songs together as a class, but this one was the one Ohana was most proud of. Posted by Jon and Jenetta.

Jon and Jenetta: Mt. Whitney
http://jonandjenetta.blogspot.com/2011/08/mt-whitney.html
Sunday, August 7, 2011. This week, I left Jenetta and the kids at home and adventured to the top of Mt. Whitney in the Eastern Sierra Nevada range in central California. Mt. Whitey is the tallest peak in the lower 48 states at 14,497 feet. The big challenge is altitude. I live at about 620 feet above sea level and very rarely am above 1,000 feet. I had an altitude headache in the parking lot! Here are a few photos from the trip:. Wednesday August 3 - Portal to Trail Camp. Posted by Jon and Jenetta. Haha ...

Jon and Jenetta: Church family camping trip
http://jonandjenetta.blogspot.com/2011/05/church-family-camping-trip.html
Sunday, May 15, 2011. Church family camping trip. This weekend, the girls and I enjoyed our annual church camping trip held at Hurkey Creek. I could write many paragraphs about the things we did together, but I'll save it to a few highlights:. We were able to invite our neighbor and his two kids to join us. Having "church" outside is always a special experience for me, and sharing it with the girls is even better. Playing in the creek is so much fun. Posted by Jon and Jenetta. May 16, 2011 at 12:05 AM.

Jon and Jenetta: Long silence
http://jonandjenetta.blogspot.com/2011/10/long-silence.html
Monday, October 3, 2011. We've looked at medical reasons, dietary reasons and psychological reasons for this in our search to find help wherever we can. One of the things that is so heartbreaking is that in Ohana's more focused moments, she describes what is going on with her as "something wrong inside her brain." And she prays a lot that God would take away whatever is in her brain that makes her afraid or worried. Things are very hard for us right now. Posted by Jon and Jenetta. My dear brother, I am s...

Jon and Jenetta: October 2011
http://jonandjenetta.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 24, 2011. Update on our daughter. I wanted to thank everyone for the prayers! The support and encouragement from our friends and especially our extended family has been deeply appreciated. As Ohana has matured, it has been interesting for us to hear her talk more about what she is feeling and what she has gone through. Several times over the past few days she has told people her "life story." It goes something like this. Posted by Jon and Jenetta. Monday, October 3, 2011. So we would appr...

Jon and Jenetta: Farewell to Summer
http://jonandjenetta.blogspot.com/2011/08/farewell-to-summer.html
Sunday, August 14, 2011. The girls start school tomorrow, so we celebrated their last weekend of freedom by attending a beach party hosted by some of our friends. We've had a very mild summer, and it was actually chilly at the beach yesterday. But just hanging out and playing with the kids at the beach sure is a lot of fun. Posted by Jon and Jenetta. September 7, 2011 at 9:58 PM. I love the picture of you with the girls, Jon! Its so evident that they are deeply loved just by looking at the photos of them!

Jon and Jenetta: Adventures in Ramona
http://jonandjenetta.blogspot.com/2011/07/adventures-in-ramona.html
Saturday, July 30, 2011. This morning, we had a delightful adventure with Alana and Cris, our cousins-in-law, and their daughter Avery. We met up early at what we thought was going to be a berry picking farm outside of Ramona. Unfortunately, the farm burned in the 2007 fires and has not re-opened. So we moved on to a plan "B": we played at a park with the kids. So we called Cris and Alana and they came back to pick with us. We topped it off tonight with strawberry smoothies for dessert!

Jon and Jenetta: September 2013
http://jonandjenetta.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 1, 2013. Something we have wanted to do with the girls for a long time was to help them engage more with their natural love for animals. Today we were able to do that in a new way for Ohana. This morning, Jenetta took Ohana over the hill for her first riding lesson. It is a lot to learn, but she did well, and she really enjoyed it! Her next lesson is in two weeks, and we are trying to work into the budget where we can do this consistently for her. Posted by Jon and Jenetta.

Tuesday, May 31, 2011. We are in the middle of an awesome trip to see family in Steinbach, MB and in Orange City, IA. It's been a lot of fun, a lot of visiting (and a lot of driving! The kids have had a great time, and they have enjoyed playing with cousins so much! I'll post more later because I'm busy enjoying myself, but here is a little taste:. Thanks so much to everyone who made us feel so special! Posted by Jon and Jenetta. June 2, 2011 at 7:10 AM. It was so special to have you here! Tony and Cathe...

Jon and Jenetta: Golf Camp
http://jonandjenetta.blogspot.com/2011/08/golf-camp.html
Saturday, August 20, 2011. A number of foster and adopted kids from San Diego County got to participate in a golf camp at Calloway this morning. The company was so nice - the kids got golf clubs, hats, balls, and a lot of personal instruction. I think the older kids benefited from the lessons a lot more, but our girls sure had a fun time. Posted by Jon and Jenetta. September 7, 2011 at 9:54 PM. The girls did a great job! How impressive that Lynn was practicing at home. ;) Is Ohana left handed?
