Mumford Family: January 2014
http://abcmumford.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Alexa - Cailin - Ian - Brad - Cassi. Sunday, January 5, 2014. We had a wonderful Christmas. We got to spend lots of time together, with friends, and together with friends. Santa made his way to our place, and left us wondering why he left so many gifts. Cassi got the height ruler she asked for:. And she already started putting it to good use. Ian making his first appearance on the hieght ruler, and here are Cailin and our neighbor, Summer. That made us laugh. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Mumford Family: January 2013
http://abcmumford.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Alexa - Cailin - Ian - Brad - Cassi. Tuesday, January 1, 2013. Christmas and Other Celebrations. On Christmas morning, the girls woke up around 6:30 as usual. And as usual, we made them play in their room until 7. That's how we roll, even on Christmas. Then we sang some Christmas songs and then let them come down to see if Santa had been here (Sorry the video's a little fuzzy, I reduced the file size a little too much). No "Is I'm a horse? No "Is I'm a Dwarf? The only lights we were able to see were the ...

Mumford Family: October 2013
http://abcmumford.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Alexa - Cailin - Ian - Brad - Cassi. Wednesday, October 16, 2013. Brad had to go to Okinawa (a tropical island south of Tokyo) for 2 weeks in August for a trial, so we thought "let's try to catch a space-a flight and go with him.". It took us 6 times over 5 days of going to the terminal here on base for us to finally get a flight. We had a layover at a marine station, so travel time was about 9 hrs. Cailin's face shows exactly how we felt when we landed in Okinawa. What a perfect morning. Brad's trial go...

Mumford Family: The Artist
http://abcmumford.blogspot.com/2013/07/the-artist.html
Alexa - Cailin - Ian - Brad - Cassi. Tuesday, July 9, 2013. I'm an artist," Alexa said dryly, matter-of-factly. Not "I wanna be an artist," and not "I'm gonna be an artist." Rather, "I'm [currently, sure as I'm sitting here, no doubt about it] an artist.". One of her friends, a little older than her, was complimenting her on a picture she drew. Intended or not, Alexa perceived it as patronizing. And she wasn't having any of it, at least not from a near peer. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Mumford Family: Ian's happy (and he knows it)
http://abcmumford.blogspot.com/2013/07/ians-happy-and-he-knows-it.html
Alexa - Cailin - Ian - Brad - Cassi. Thursday, July 18, 2013. Ian's happy (and he knows it). Ian is a happy baby, but now we have proof that he knows it. A couple weeks ago, Alexa and Cailin were singing the "if you're happy and you know it" song to each other, and Alexa just decided to try to get Ian to join in on the fun. She said "if you're happy and you know say ba-ba! And wouldn't you know, he said "ba-ba! Love the girlies giggles, too! July 18, 2013 at 9:17 PM. July 20, 2013 at 8:51 AM.

http://abcmumford.blogspot.com/2013/06/3rd-time-charm.html
Alexa - Cailin - Ian - Brad - Cassi. Saturday, June 8, 2013. 3rd times the charm. Alexa figured out how to ride her bike, sans training wheels, on just her third attempt. Cassi captured it on video. Now, all she wants to do is ride her bike. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 160; Weather Maps. 3rd times the charm.

Mumford Family: November 2012
http://abcmumford.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Alexa - Cailin - Ian - Brad - Cassi. Thursday, November 29, 2012. It seems harder to find time to do pretty much anything with a newborn. That's why I'm only now blogging about our baby brother Ian. I was induced Friday September 28. They started the pitocin at 7:30 and Ian was born at 12:48 pm with only about a half hour of intense pain - probably my best delivery yet. Here's the proud papi. And the tired, yet happy mami. She was a nice nurse so we couldn't turn her away. The girls LOVE their brother!

Mumford Family: September 2012
http://abcmumford.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Alexa - Cailin - Ian - Brad - Cassi. Sunday, September 23, 2012. Since Brad had 4 days off for Labor Day, we decided to take a little family vacation before the baby came. We drove a couple hours to a Navy base called Yokosuka. It's only about 50 miles from here, but when there's a stoplight at every corner it takes a little while to get there. It had a beach though (not a great one, but a beach nonetheless). The girls loved swimming in the ocean! There were lots of seashells to collect. Anyway, we had a...

Mumford Family: August 2012
http://abcmumford.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Alexa - Cailin - Ian - Brad - Cassi. Friday, August 17, 2012. Mt Fuji, Mountain Fuji, or Fuji-san. I dedicate this post and this hike to my dad, who, in 1996, after leading me and a small group of scouts to the summit of Mt Borah (Idaho's highest peak), coined the following maxim: "Life is uphill; Choose the right peak! Here's a view of Fuji-san from the 5th Station:. Tuesday, August 14, 2012. Since we've been over here, we've felt a lot more desire to blog. While in Mtn Home, it felt like we were in...
