Welcome to the Vanderarban Chronicles

Hi there and thanks for stopping by. The point of this blog will be to share our adventures and learn about other adventurous opportunities from whoever happens along. We aim to discuss, geocaching, hiking, camping, wandering aimlessly, road trips, daily life, parenting, green living and more. Well really there is no specific aim, we would just like the opportunity to chronicle our lives and hear about yours. We hope you enjoy your visit and please feel free to send us comments, suggestions, stories or just a friendly message.
Now a little about us... We are two thirty-something parents raising children ages 6-13. We are a mixed family in the sense that we each are raising our children from previous relationships together as a family. We have three daughters and one son. Everyday is a test of strength and an adventure.
We spend as much time outdoors as we can and try to involve our children in wholesome adventures. We have been prone to "letting ourselves go" in our past and are currently on a mission to get more healthy and enjoy life more! We often search out ways to lead a more reduced stress, happy lifestyle. We love to make new friends along the way who share common interests with us!
We would love to have you along on our adventure and to learn more about your adventures! We hope to see you soon!
