Springtime in Paris is only 30 days away!


We have officially started to pack our bags! I have the suitcases open and packed some of the travel specialty items; the all purpose windbreaker /raincoat, umbrellas, travel pillow, converters, day bag, etc. We'll bring along some dried cranberries, cherries, granola, crystal light packets and other miscellaneous items that will travel well. I packed the salt and pepper and sugar free sugar. One addition I am packing is....a thermos! A small one that will be perfect for a pot or 2 of espresso. To keep us awake during the museums! The first museum in the itinerary is....The Louvre. So hopefully we will be able to survive it!


Luke and I need to do some work on the Itinerary. Right now it does not match up AT ALL with my mother and father's. Some overlap would be nice. Some.
The weather right now in Paris is a high of 50 F and low of 35F. Sounds just like spring to me! Fantastic.
We'll try to post our Itinerary with some generic photos so you can see what we'll be doing!

We had visitors! Baden and Rylee Fenton!


Here they are happily playing blocks! Baden is making a "track". Cool!


Dinner time! Lasagna, applesauce and everyone's favorite....green peas!

Luke had a pea eating contest with Baden to get him to eat the vegetable. It worked! Rylee even ate *a few when she saw big brother eating them.

After dinner we read a few books, played with blocks and then Mom and Dad (Ryan/Tina) came to pick them up!

Kaiser is Naughty!

This is how I found Kaiser when I came home! He ate the remnants of my lettuce salad. He isn't even showing shame!


The worst part is he wrecked my favorite salad bowl lid! Crap head! Dogs these days....No manners or thought for other people's property!

Miscellaneous Kaiser Pics! Too Cute to miss!

How cute!


My good little doggie. It doens't look like we are comfy or asleep, but I assure you we were both!

I love this picture! It reminds me of the moment of creation when god touches Adam? (I think it is adam) On the top center of the Sistine Chapel!



I also love this view! What a proud snout!

This is how Daddy reads the paper!

Bowling for Jill's Birthday!

We went bowling in Clear Lake Iowa last week for Jill Olson's Birthday! There are 52 candles on there! Cori made the cake! Thanks Cori! The kids helped Grandma blow out the candles!
The kids did wonderfully with the bowling ball ramp and some of the adults could have used it (like me)! I did not bowl very well!
They are still learning how to keep score! They only needed a little help tallying the strikes and spares!



We all met at Culvers for dinner!

What happened to his SPOTS!
