This is our life after one of us retired from the military. It’s been a journey of discovery & rediscovering.

With the permission of their parents, this is a digital journey of our lifestyle as first time grandparents!

Hello Family! We have been popping in and out of these Internet streets because we have been tending to the care of Mom. She had a fall recently. Took her to emergency room and testing showed she had blood clots. She’s in rehab right now and we hope she will be home soon.

Thanks to each one of you who reached out with concern.

We are here but priorities have shifted a bit. We will be back on track soon and very soon!

Karen and I hope you all are doing well. Are you ready for the Holidays? We can’t believe Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Time is flying by!

Warm regards,
Kadon and Karen

We hope you all are doing well. Of course you know we are dealing with personal/medical issues in the background and haven’t been as present as we would like to be. But we know you understand. The grand babies are doing well. Our children are doing well and working hard at pursuing their goals. We’re proud of them.

Merry Christmas! 🎁🎄

This holiday season has been a reminder to us of the power of love, hope, and kindness. As we celebrate Jesus Christ, open presents, eat good food, laugh out loud, dance and be merry, we wanted to wish each person who reads this a season filled with joy, peace, and the courage to be the best version of yourself.

Peace and Love,
Kadon and Karen

Hello Fam,
We hope everyone who is reading this is doing well. Our thoughts and prayers are
with all who are in the path of impending Hurricane Milton. We are further inland and didn’t have mandatory evacuation orders. We are sheltered in place w/ our family. We will update as we can.

Take care.

Hello Fam, We have been MIA but we have been thinking about you all. We are getting ready to post a bunch of videos of our recent activities and ramblings.

We hope you are enjoying your summer so far. It’s so hot and uncomfortable (most days) here in Florida. The sun drains us. ☀️

We have been hosting family. Trying to entertain the children, working, continuing in (decorating) to make our house a home. Just busy 🐝. 😀

Thanks to each one of you for rocking with us. We appreciate you!!


Peace and Love,
Karen and Kadon

Karen and I recently celebrated 33 years of marriage. It’s been nothing short of a rollercoaster ride. 😀 In marriage, you get to choose whether to allow the storms you face to divide your relationship. ❤️ Most of our marriage has been while I was in military & that has added another element of stressors and challenges. We have withstood & worked through them all and we are still standing. It’s by the grace of God and our love and commitment to each other that has helped us persevere.

I am proud to be married to my wife. She has held me down. Looking forward to what the future holds for us.

We hope you have a wonderful Christmas! We’ve been MIA from posting as much because life has been life-ing. No worries. We’ve got this!

And thank you sooooooo much for all the Birthday love for our Marsy! We didn’t get to respond to all the comments but We see you! Thank you for thinking of him. It was a special day!

Oh and for the past 2 days, Mars has been teething. The results have been him screaming in pain. We have/his parents have been rotating Tylenol and Motrin. It gives him momentary relief. Tough to see him this way and there is nothing you can do. Can’t wait until his teeth come through.

We wish you all well. Thank you for stopping by. - karen and Kadon
