About Us

The title for our blog came from the saying "thinking outside the box", which means to think differently, unconventionally or from a new perspective. "Enjoy your choices and enjoy what you do. Never let a day go by without being thankful for the fact that you get to be here in the first place." Hopefully this blog will help family and friends to stay a little closer to us even though were thousands of miles apart; as well as to share in our trials, daily life adventures and traveling experiences.

A Walk and More

Everyday Chloe insists that she goes for a walk. Most days she even goes for two. I guess it's a good thing because it makes us get out of the house and Ella enjoys it.

Yesterday was beautiful weather so I loaded up the stroller and we went for a walk with a little extra stop.

Ella, the dogs and I started off down our usual dirt path.


The dirt path ends allowing you to follow a paved circular route around a nice grassy area and through some woods.



This is my favorite spot and often think I should go on a walk with just Ella so I can stop here and read a book.


Ella waved "hello" to all the trees and birds along the way.

Then it was on to the "more" part of our walk. We picked a nice spot in the grassy area. The dogs chased the their ball for a while, then found sticks to chew. Ella played, tried to pick all the flowers she found and we read some of her books. I too planned to read my book, but that didn't happen.






More than an hour later we headed home. On our way we stopped to admire the ducks. I think they thought we had food for them because they ALL came swimming over to us.
