Welcome to the blog!

We are two people, one dog and three legs...well technically ten. But this is our story about going through life with some obstacles we have to maneuver and how we go about doing just that! And by the way, our life is fewer obstacles and more awesomeness. Stay tuned for more awesomeness...

Heading up Mt. Pisgah to place Letter Boxes.
Many of you may know that my mom, Terry Gladstone passed away last Sunday, November 6 due to a long fight with cancer.  Even in the midst of these two years we had some wonderful moments - like taking the four-wheeler up into the hills around Lake Louise to provide prayer stations for campers and hikers.

Lately we've been spending time with Dad, taking walks, and remembering my mom in every meal we eat and story we tell.  Today, we even thought about putting together a little dictionary of Terry-isms.  So here it is:

Fluffanated - when a dog destroys a chew toy, ripping it's stuffing out.

Kee-hoo - "Here Copper!" (to be used on walks to avoid dogs being near the main road)

'Puter - Computer

Japanese Pancakes - German pancakes

Murphy's Spaghetti - spaghetti made by Susan Murray who had no idea she was making "Murphy's Spaghetti"

BORK! - either "I'm in danger while in the woods or on a canoe trip" or "Pay attention to me because I'm the dean of this camp!"

Hold Your Licker - do not lick either me or that pillow anymore (usually in reference to a dog)

Stanley Thomas Picklebutt Niles - Uncle Tom

More to come as we think of them.  We miss you Mom.
