I really enjoyed reading many of the author’s posts because they are so upbeat and you can tell he really is a great father. He talks about his two daughters, Ava and Madison, with such enthusiasm and appreciation. I love how he includes pictures of his children from many activities, including the family vacations, his children playing, and even when his one daughter broke her arm. I think the pictures help to tell the story and it makes it so much more interesting then just the text alone. You get to see where the family went on vacation and what they did while they were there. It is nice because the author only needs to add a sentence or two instead of several paragraphs to describe what the picture shows.
My favorite post is called Avalon, NJ and it was posted on July 30, 2007. The family was invited to a friend’s beach house for the weekend. They spent time on the beach and while they were playing in the waves, the dad lost his glasses and had to have them shipped to the beach house. It was such a funny post and hearing him describe everything being blurry and how him and his wife are not really “beach people,” but go for their two daughters was very amusing. I think the pictures are really what made this my favorite because you can see how much fun the family had even though the parents were not looking forward to going and the two girls clearly had a blast that weekend.
So go check this blog out, I promise you won’t be disappointed!
