3 kids, 1 hike and 15 frogs



Spencer and I went running/hiking the other day at the Watchung reservation and found a little pond with about 15 frogs. The pond was about 6 feet wide and not too deep so we could get up close and personal. We spent a good 20 minutes catching and observing the frogs and having a blast. It is great to find something where you can be a kid again. The frogs that I remember catching were at the sewer behind Meadowlark Elementary back home. Watchung is definitely better than the sewer.

How we managed to not fall in is still a mystery. A couple of days later we went back with Jen and Alli to continue the fun. Alli had just as much fun as Spencer and I did and Jen provided the adult supervision. We have been making a real effort lately to get the kids outside more (they are a little too comfortable in front of the computer and TV) and Watchung is only a 5 minute drive so you can bet that we will be spending a lot more time there.







Zachary Paul Majors

All 9 pounds and 8 ounces of Zachary Paul Majors arrived at 5:05 p.m. on the 17th. That makes a perfect 3 for 3 on kids being born on the 17th. Jenni and Zachary came home this morning and Jen is feeling dandy. Enjoy the pictures.
