http://mcmdgold.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Our musings of two daughters and life. Malcolm, Christine, Michaela and Danielle. Wednesday, July 29, 2015. Rocky Mountain National Park: Part 2. In between our ventures to higher alpine elevation along the Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain national Park we stayed in lower elevations for one day and hiked around Grand Lake. The view to the north looked promising but the view south concerned us for rain. The girls worked hard to find the wildflowers in their booklet on our walk. Christine found this youn...

Our attitude toward life determines life's attitude toward us. Thursday, March 29, 2012. Retiring Blog . for now. All is well in my "neck of the woods". We've been super busy with the start of 2012. Pierce is coming up on the end of 2nd grade (time is flying! He's enjoying school and friends, all things you would expect from an eight year old. He's healthy and getting tall. Many smiles surround Pierce and it is my pleasure to watch him grow and change. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 2014 - Ready or Not.

Our musings of two daughters and life: Headed West
http://mcmdgold.blogspot.com/2015/07/headed-west.html
Our musings of two daughters and life. Malcolm, Christine, Michaela and Danielle. Saturday, July 4, 2015. So, it has probably been a year (or more) since I have posted anything to the blog but Malcolm has thankfully taken up the slack. As I sit down tonight in non-air conditioned room that barely has room to walk around, let alone sleep 4, I am trying to relax and let go of the small mistakes I have made on the trip. As I look back, I see laughter, smiles and lots of love for my family. We made sure to s...

Our musings of two daughters and life: June 2015
http://mcmdgold.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Our musings of two daughters and life. Malcolm, Christine, Michaela and Danielle. Tuesday, June 30, 2015. The next generation in Canada. The girls loved the time in the boat; they loved the rides, fishing, and grandparents. We returned early afternoon before the rain showers and saw a little black bear walking along one of the islands. We were fairly close to the black bear, coasting to only 25 yards or so before it ran away. Overall they saw walleye. And a small rock bass. Lake of the Woods. We are on a...

Pierce's World: Let the Record Show ...
http://rikefamily.blogspot.com/2011/12/let-record-show.html
Our attitude toward life determines life's attitude toward us. Saturday, December 24, 2011. Let the Record Show . Each time we visit Grandma and Grandpa in So. California we take Pierce into the garage and measure him against the side of the cabinet. We've been doing it for years and have had fun watching the line on the side of the cabinet climb higher and higher with each visit. Hillary and I got in on it and so did Grandma and cousin Gary Demack! At least 1/2 an inch, huh? December 27, 2011 at 9:03 AM.

Pierce's World: Morning Walks
http://rikefamily.blogspot.com/2012/01/morning-walks.html
Our attitude toward life determines life's attitude toward us. Monday, January 2, 2012. One of my favorite things to do each morning when I'm visiting my folks is to walk around their neighborhood. Sunshine and blue skies in December . you just can't beat it! Yep, that's the Pacific Ocean peaking at me from the other side of those hills. The entrance of the neighborhood . I just love the way it feels with the palm trees and fountains. One of my favorite places to stop and catch my breath.

Pierce's World: October 2011
http://rikefamily.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Our attitude toward life determines life's attitude toward us. Monday, October 31, 2011. Nothing like coming up with an awesome last minute Halloween costume! I was struggling with what to get for Pierce. I didn't want to spend a bunch of money for something that he'll hardly wear. Two nights before I remembered that we had a hand-me-down cowboy hat, shoes and accessories. And luck would have it, they all fit perfectly! Here's my funny little cowboy posing for the camera.. And riding it like a cowboy!

Pierce's World: September 2011
http://rikefamily.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Our attitude toward life determines life's attitude toward us. Sunday, September 25, 2011. If you know my boy, then you know that if it has wheels . he will want to drive it and/or at least explore it. Against my better judgement I allowed him to climb on top of this tractor. OK, truth is, I didn't have much of a say in things. He was climbing it before I had a chance to say no. I had to literally remove him from the tractor because he didn't want to leave. Saturday, September 17, 2011. Oh, the girls!

Mom, Dad, Pierce and I took off to Anaheim to visit K1 Speed ( http:/ www.k1speed.com/. So Pierce could race on a track. If you know Pierce, then you know this sort of thing is in his blood. Here he is getting the briefing of "how to" before the race. Outfitted with his helmet. And off they went! Looks like someone had a great time! This looks like a blast!

Pierce's World: Rose Parade Floats
http://rikefamily.blogspot.com/2012/01/rose-parade-floats.html
Our attitude toward life determines life's attitude toward us. Tuesday, January 3, 2012. My parents have had the unique opportunity to help decorate the Rose Parade floats over the past few years with the Rotary Club. Since I was in town this year at the right time, I got to join them. It was a very early morning, but well worth it! Flowers, flowers, everywhere flowers . The Rotary Inch Worm. I became quite acquainted with him over the next several hours. Lisa @ Turning Tables.
