Incredible clouds

A photo of the sky on Mothers Day in 2004 right as a tornado was touching down in Maple Grove and headed our way to Roseville.

Happy May!

Family Pictures

In September we had our friends, Erin and Troy, join us at Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden to take family pictures.  We had a great time and got some fabulous photos.  I hope you enjoy.

Happy's A Winner Again

Happy had his last Pinewood Derby in January.  He ended up heading home with a trophy again this year for third place.  He'd been 1st or 2nd all the way through but they go by the final race.  He didn't mind, he still won a trophy.

The next phase of Toddlerhood

"Indi, would you like some carrots?"  asks Mom.

"Mmm.  No."  replies Indi.

"Indi, would you like to take a nap?"  asks Mom.

"Mmm.  No." replies Indi.

"Indi, would you like a cookie?" asks Mom.

"Mmm.  No.  Yeah!"  replies Indi.

So much snow this year

Here's a picture I took of a Junco in our backyard during a large snowstorm that hit us in December.  I zoomed in on it as it was hanging out under one of our lilac bushes.  It was a lot of snow all at once (about 18 inches) and now we're almost mid February with more snow.  Apparently a melt is coming for the weekend.  Let's all have our fingers crossed for debunked ice dams via John and some Calcium Chloride.

Just for the Record

Happy just told me that I'm usually right.
