Welcome.....

The Koebcke family has been on quite a journey over the past 5 years. Although we have had our trials, it has been such a blessing to raise two wonderful children and to share this journey with my amazing husband. We are looking forward to what life has in store for us!

My goal for this blog is to share our journey with the people who have been with us through all the good,
the bad, and the ugly! I can't promise to blog as much as I should, but I promise to do my best.

Warning...blogs may be extremely boring :)

Ahhhhh....Spring is here!

I have never been so glad to say goodbye to winter! This weekend was perfect...not too cold and not too hot. We spent the entire weekend outside - and it was fantastic!

Travis got the garage cleaned out, and we thoroughly cleaned the screened porch and everything in it. We used a power washer, so Kaden was willing to "help" clean. What a mess! Giving a 5 yr old a power washer....not the smartest thing we've ever done! He had a blast (literally), so it was worth it. It is nice to have it all cleaned so we can start spending time out there. Travis even hung shades, so we aren't blinded when the late afternoon sun shines in.

We also picked up sticks, trimmed a few bushes, picked up all the Schatzi potty big, and even got rid of a VERY stinky, decaying possum in the wooded area behind our house. You could smell it from far away...it
was disgusting!

It was such a productive weekend........love that feeling!  The best part of the weekend was playing with the kids. They both loved playing on the playset, playing with Schatzi, taking walks, playing on the porch and eating all our meals outside! Just hanging out at home - it doesn't get any better than that!

We really needed a wonderful weekend like that....things have been kinda rough, so having a couple beautiful days means so much! I don't take days like that for granted anymore. I know how special they are!
