Daniel and I met and started dating in July of 2005. After a good year, we were married Aug 5, 2006. We lived in the Love Shack Trailer in Egin, ID. Though a bit far from town, we enjoyed ourselves and gained great friendships. In April 2008, we moved a few miles to Hibbard, near Rexburg. In September Baby Addyson entered our family; truly blessing our lives, hearts, and home.

Greg, "Soldier Boy" giving blog insights





I don't know who is aware of this or not, but my brother, Greg, is in the National Guard. He is currently doing his second tour of deployment oversea. He is in the hostile conditions of Afganistan. I worry alot about him, so it is nice when we get to talk to him on skype...An internet site allowing you to talk and often see the person you are conversing with if you have a video camera. Anyway. He left a message on skype after he had checked out all the fam's blogs. I really had to laugh at his "constructive criticism." Love you Greg! Here is what he had to say...

"As an outsider looking in, i'm going to have to give the award of best blog site do Barry and Karin. It is the most interactive and such, with some good story line of the two of them and stuff. The whole blog concept started as people sharing feelings, almost like a diary on display of thoughts. Karin actually has some of these thoughts and feelings. Could use a little work, turning the black font on the front to a lighter color to show up better. Todd and Suzy's has nice pics, a lot of them, but not too interactive or "high speed". Brookes has a fun little cover picture that took some work, nice, maybe a little more action going on, oh, and the music selection is poor!!! Blake's is nice, but definately needs some work to spice it up some, nice pics though, the slide show is kinda short, even though maya is really cute in the bday pics! Not so sure i like the title of the blog. Seems like if you got rid of the One it would roll across the tongue more smoothly. Music selection is short and sweet, but good solid base (i'm a little baised since i suggested a few!) Mom and Dad's is nice, need to fix the opening statement of course as i've already mentioned, get rid of the comas, and the to should be too. Music was fitting. Well, they all look good, and as with everything i say, take it with a grain of salt and know that i'm up at 2am with nothing better to do than give contructive critisism."
