once upon a time a boy saw a girl.  he asked her to go get lime bars.  she said yes.  he was a viking and she was dutch.  but this didn’t stop them.  eventually they fell in love, got married, became the H’s, bought a house in the mountains and had a little dutch-viking hybrid. 


then they decided that some sort of modern narritive of life in general [l.i.g], preferably in the digital format, may be in order. 


(little dutch-viking hybrids tend to make these things necessary.)


so here is an attempt to capture l.i.g in all it’s wonderful, wild, blessed, busy, changing, challenging gusto.  


frequency tbd.

Honkens take over MN

Aida and I left Cinci and flew to MN to meet Peter and Uncle Luke for Great Grandma Honken's 90th birthday party! We had a great weekend celebrating Grandma, meeting extended family for the first time and catching up with some of our SC family. Aida especially loved meeting her Carles cousins :) We left Sunday night and drove through the night back to CO. It was a whirlwind, but so fun! Aida was a traveling champ, for which we are so thankful.
