Adventures in Marriage


team  It's Bizness Time - the ultimate team - 3rd place

Jenn and I had the pleasure to recently celebrate our 13th year of marriage in participating in this years Central Coast Adventure Challenge sprint course at Lopez Lake. Korey and TT joined in the fun and it did not dissapoint and we planned to complete the course together in unison - it was aweseome the wifey did amazingly well...! 

The course consisted of kayaking, mild orienteering to each check points with map navigation, mountain biking, and a run/mountain climb complete with ropes and some minor team tests... 

A little test of teamwork, balance, thinking - the old(er) guard and the new guard.

Team It's Bizness Time with the Faciliators - along with the kiddos and nanna/papa.

Great time of fellowship, suffering, team work, and pure gutteral fun.  So proud of the wifey in her efforts.  Life and marriage is an adventure and this day was a blessing.  I praise God for our marriage "oneness" and His amazing and mysterious gift.  Looking forward to more marriage and adventure together!

Thank you Korey and TT for your friendship in all of this.  Let these experiences illustrate some of the realities of marriages - challenging, tough, messy, exhilirating, joyful, and utlimately a great gift...  Thanks for the grandparents and kiddos for giving us this moment of fun as well...

Pacific Coast Trail Run - TT and Big Seany Boy

Christina signed up for her first trail run at Montana De Oro State Park. The event ran today and her running pal was a no show. Her Uncle Sean decided to run along for company and to record the event. The coarse was exactly what you can see in the background - mountain goat climbs on coastal mountains 12km and 1700 feet of vertical. Very impressive run TT!

TT running towards the second ridge below Valencia Peak.

TT showing smiles with gritty determination!

Sean and TT atop Valencia Peak at a bit more than half way. You can see the rock in the background. Gods handiwork on display!

Love to see the family enjoying Gods creation and pushing the athletic endeavors. Praise God for these special times!
