...and this...
...and none of this...

Anyone get outside and enjoy nature and family (or solitude) this weekend?

Why We Unplug
We are absolutely bombarded in our society with technology, easy access to the internet and the challenges of being "sucked in" to the instant gratification of all the social media avenues and various search engines and news headlines.
Our family is not exempt (J was happily using a cell phone at a super young age and now knows how to navigate the iPad way better than seems possible for a kid who is hardly ever using it.)
While we have yet to leave behind our "free phones" for a smart phone (mostly because the service in our area is horrible and WY in general has plenty of dead spots,) we have 3 computers, an iPod Touch and an iPad. To some this may not seem like much, but for us it means that coupled with our wireless internet, we can check email/facebook/blog, etc. etc. any time we want. I seldom nurse P without perusing the latest happenings on the internet.
