New Bern Bears

Many of you may have seen my pictures of the kids with statues of bears. When we moved here, we noticed statues of bears everywhere. Come to find out the town of New Bern's symbol is the bear. OK that's cool, then we started to realize that these are not plain old bear statutes. These bears all are different and  that intrigued me. So I had to do research on them. Theses bears are part of a public art project to celebrate the town's 300th anniversary. Come to found out there are 50 bear statues and I plan to get a picture of the kids with all of them. So you will periodically see pictures of the kids with the bears until I get one of all of them. here is a picture of all fifty bears...

Starting a blog

Hey everyone!
Ive been debating for sometime about starting a blog, I finally have decided to get off my tail and just do it.  I have been wanting a way for friends and family to keep up with our family and hopefully this will allow it to happen. Selfishly, I'm hoping that it will make it easier for me to just do this one thing and not have to send multiple updates to people, which always leave me feeling I have left someone out or forgot to add something.  Fair warning I'm also going to be adding my opinion about things, so like it or don't your choice. Hopefully it will interest some or at least keep you updated on what is going on in our wacky world.
