Jude is 10 years old today. As I did on the occasion of Mason’s tenth birthday, here’s a few randomly assorted memories I have about the day Jude was born. 1. Modern medicine at its most evolved. A planned, scheduled birth. Keturah was scheduled to give birth around 9 am and we were supposed to […]

Almost exactly 10 years ago at this moment, this happened https://www.flickr.com/…/226784…/in/album-72157594222125545/ This day has me feeling a bit nostalgic, so to recognize Mason turning 10 today, here’s 10 random thoughts.

Keturah held our first gathering of friends at our place over the weekend. Partially a BBQ. Partially a housewarming party with a lot of kids play date flavorings (there was a bouncy house after all). We called in Sudtoberfest. Lots of people I haven’t seen in quite a long time. Some over 15 years. Anyway, […]
