A fresh start

Okay, so I know it has been a long time since I last had anything published, but life has been pretty hectic.

So here are a few of the things that have happened in my life since the last time I wrote:

1.       Found out my wife is pregnant with our fifth child. She is due in March, we are all really excited.

2.       I was able to find a job, and then find a better job and move on. In the eight months I have had the opportunity to work last year; I have received three promotions at the two places I worked. I also had the opportunity to interview for another one. I did not get it, but it was really good experience.

3.       One of my vehicles has decided to nearly die on me a few times during my commute. It has not died yet, but it keeps trying. It also has gone through two tires, which needed to be replaced on New Year’s Eve, but had to wait a couple days for a place to open.

4.       All of my children have grown up more. Three are in school, and my youngest, until March, is in preschool.

5.       I have also aged to the point where it became necessary for me to get glasses, since I could not see very well any more.

I have also decided I am going to change things up just a bit for this blog. I am no longer going to focus simply on food. I am going to focus on “Adventure”.

Okay, so adventure is such a broad topic, here is how I plan on breaking it down. I am a father and husband first. I have four great children, and soon to have another. I have the best wife on the planet. I am still relatively young and in somewhat good shape, after all, round is a shape too, right? My family and I are always on the go. We frequent a cabin up in the mountains and just simply enjoy what life throws at us.

So this Blog will now be a journal of what my family and I do. Last year alone, my oldest son decided to join a few others on a fishing trip. We loaded in the car mid-day on a Friday and drove seven hours to a fishing hole. We fished all the next day to be skunked, only in time to return and return to Church and work. It was a crazy 36 hours.

I know I left a lot out, but that was a teaser as the media will say.

Look next week to see what kind of adventure I have planned for this coming year. I will keep everybody updated on the process. I will be a lot of fun.

The name of the blog will remain Indoors or Out, since not all of my adventures need to take place out of the house, after all, I do have a house full of children.

Until next time ...
