Week and a half of healing...

Boat Dock Sandwich

Meg and I had a great fourth this year. We celebrated with a group of friends at some lake in Roseville. For kicks I thought I would have my leg crushed by a boat.


When it happened I thought for sure it would snap but I didn't hear anything and it didn't hurt too bad for the first couple days. It did start to swell up though. Gross. I took these a couple days ago and the color has really started to fill in nicely. Tough to capture all the yellow and grays with the indoor lighting.


I finally broke down and Meg took me to the Urgent Care who said I'd have to go to the emergency room who then told me to walk it off.

I still had a really fun fourth and I still like boats.

Lessons Palin could learn from Biden...

These are just off the top of my head so if you have any ideas please share...

1. Know something about something.
2. Know something about anything.
3. Know how to use language to convey that something to others.
4. Know the difference between communicating and whatever the hell she's been doing lately.
5. Know how to shut up and let people get back to work.
6. Know how to get back to work.
7. The difference between a pitbull and hockey mom. (Hint: purpose)

Three nice things...

My sister has three nice babies.


Meg and I had a chance to go back and visit this June for baby Eli's baptism. Hard to believe but we actually saw snow flakes. I guess we're not moving to North Dakota anytime soon. Fortunately the baptism was indoors.


Ava was so excited to see us she was walking on the ceiling!


Lucas wasn't too sure about me. Lucky for him he could keep an eye on me while eating 'cause that kid LOVES TO EAT!!


What a great trip!! Hope we can stay longer next time. We miss them already.
