July 7, 2006 was the day we started a digital journal (blog) of our family's antics.
It's been a collaborative venture over the years; I've posted 1,463 times and Kristen has posted once.
The Blog has logged 64,330 Page Views from 11 different countries.
I, as the primary perpetuator of all-things-Blog have endured countless complaints and eye-rolls from the subjects of said Blog. (They really love it; they just can't admit it to me ... yet.)
On the 10th Anniversary of TeagueFamily.org, here's a "10-for10" that highlights some of my favorite posts over the past 10 years.
Vacation begins. Launch of the Teague Family Blog!
July 7, 2006
The 10-for-10 has to lead off with the inaugural post to the Teague Family Blog. We used our trip to California as impetus to launch an online journal.
Speech by Barack Obama
February 11, 2007
Kristen has only posted on the Blog once. This was it. I think for this reason alone it's worthy of inclusion in our "10 for 10." Or maybe because she publicly pledged support to a Democrat?!
Miles' 6th Birthday Party
January 20, 2008
Star Wars themed birthday party with - may I brag? - some of the coolest kid-friendly light sabers ever. And a wonderful friend dressed appearing as Darth Vader.

Addison's Academy Award Nomination
February 27, 2011
The blog isn't always about our family of four. Sometimes it has been a way for us to highlight big events in our extended family for which we are particularly excited or proud.
Awesome Artist Award

Emery's artwork was selected for the school's Permanent Gallery.
Maple Tree Tapping for ACS
March 9, 2013
When Kristen was teaching Group 2 at ACS she was in charge of "Maple Tree Tapping" ... a very long standing tradition at the school.
Final Crow Tribe Meeting
June 2, 2014
The Indian Guide & Princess programs were very important to our family. There are probably at least a hundred blog posts from various events we attended; this was the very last meeting and was hosted at our house.
Carnegie Hall
March 8, 2015
This post was a photo-summary of the DGN Band's New York Tour in February/March of 2015. Conducting and performing at Carnegie Hall was a "career highlight" indeed.
