The Dow Family: June 2014
http://benkristindow.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 7, 2014. Around Christmas, I told Ben that we needed more "family fun" or quality time together. I asked him if he would do the color run with me and the boys and his response was, "June? The boys weren't quite sure what to expect, but they were excited. Kaden even started running laps at the Townclub with Luke in order to "get ready for the race". Now look how thrilled Ben looks 6-months later. I think he may have enjoyed himself a little. Sarah, Micah, Michel, and Luke. TransRockies Race...

The Dow Family: March 2015
http://benkristindow.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 30, 2015. Jennifer in the Panhandle. Jennifer mentioned coming for a visit several months ago. She somehow ditched her 3 kids to spend three days with mine. :). Jennifer did such a great job with the kids- I think she might be known as "fun mom" now. This is what I came out to after slipping into a coma on the couch on Sunday afternoon (thanks for the nap and for doing the dishes! Owen got to spend some quality time with daddy at Barnes and Noble at the train table in the kids' section.

Friday, October 31, 2014. I told someone recently that I am REALLY enjoying the boys lately. 5 and (almost) 3 are fun ages where they can tell you what they want, have reasoning and coping skills, and they get excited about things. We had an ACTION PACKED 24-hours of Halloween! Finally making it to the pumpkin patch near our house to choose a pumpkin. Yes, a HORRID picture, but I look like I swallowed. I think my stomach expanded this week and I'm feeling it; completely stretched out! Going to town with ...

While we are in B...
