Meadow @ 10 Years

She's 10! A whole decade has gone by with Meadow in our life.  

That's kind of nuts. As time goes by and you watch your little gal grow up, I'm glad we have so many photos of her and Theo. Even when they inevitably (lump in throat) grow up, we'll be able to look back at all of our adventures.

Our little bookworm. A day doesn't go by that she doesn't have her nose in a book. Usually while in the car (even if it's a 10 minute drive), while eating dinner and late at night.

Every time she comes back from the library she has a huge stack of books. Like mother, like daughter I guess.

Meadow also loves cats, swimming, baking, kayaking, school, ice cream, art, nature, holidays and relaxing. 

And she always makes such sweet gifts. A Zelda pillow for Theo, a Packers cat for me. She's so thoughtful even though she doesn't love snuggling anymore.

She still loves to stay up late and sleep in when she can. Sometimes until 10:30-11.

We love you Meadow!

Six Months, More Like Six Years

By
Approaching the 11th hour of this Sunday we finally rolled out of bed. Brooke and I made a night out of our six month since being married. In a way we could be celebrating six plus years together. I met the little lady above in February 2006. Now we garden together. We had a lovely night indeed: dinner at Red Stag and drinks at Aster Cafe.  I went outside to show Brooke where our new boulevard tree was going to be planted. We found a love letter in our bushes. Brooke couldn't read it, so we let it dry on one of the radiators.  The first page was mostly apologizing for not writing and then the second page turned sour with lots of swear words.  We drove downtown to eat brunch. We parked across from this rare small pre-1950s building that has somehow survived in downtown Minneapolis's ongoing urban renewal. We decided to eat at La Belle Crepe since I picked up this for our post-wedding breakfast back on that October day. This creperie is...

The Sunday Circular

 We stayed out late the night before for our friend Jose's birthday party. This time Scott had more to drink than me. So we slept in. Apparently Peanut also had to much too drink. I woke up to this mess. Of course he's licking the plastic bag in this picture. He loves licking bags -- reminds him of his alley cat days.    Scott's hangover comfort food is pancakes and syrup, that would be last thing for me. I tried to cheer him up with emoticon mini pancakes.    My stomach was just not having it. This might be the first time I've left pancakes on my plate. Ever.  Off to work I went, hungover. Damn you Best Buy! While he went to his job, I worked on getting the chile-braised pork shoulder ( from the latest Bon Appetit ) ready for our epic meal .  I got a strawberry plant from the back of someone's pickup truck while Scott was in California. Thanks to Emma for finding it on freecycle . He planted it for me...

Honeymoon: Duluth, Minnesota is Not Flooded. Long Live Long-Pong.

By
When the waitress asked for Blake's ID and he told her he was underage we were kicked out of the Thirsty Pagan. To not miss out on our favorite pizza and beer (and we had a coupon to use up) we ordered food to go. While waiting for our food we walked around the great, but sad city of Superior, Wisc. Heading directly out the door and towards the industrial waterfront this Charlie Brown block was plopped amongst the former industry.
