We found socks and shoes and bundled this little girl up to go outside. It feels so good to be in the air and the sun. This was taken earlier in the morning. There was some arguing, but there really is room for four baby feet. This was taken today, this afternoon. She’s sleeping on

It was a beautiful day, so much fun. The weather was perfect, the company easy going. The Easter egg hunt was a blast. Pam, you and Paul have made Easter such a special occasion for so many of us. My grand kids react like my own kids used to about going to your house. “Going

We’ve got this again. Kids are happy about the snow day, But this! This was a huge surprise, made my day. Laurie sent these for my birthday. So sweet and so nice to look at instead of out the windows. And this picture? It’s the hair! I call it the Cindy Lou Who hair. And
We went to a wedding in Duluth this weekend, the oldest daughter of a childhood friend, and we had a great time. The wedding was at the Sacred Heart Music Center, an old Catholic church that has been de-sanctified, whatever that means exactly. It’s beautiful inside, an old and fancy, used to be the main
