Congratulations to Asia and the South St Paul Packers girls soccer team for winning today and taking 3rd place in the state tournament!  Way to go girls!

Happy Birthday Grandma Ellen!

5 Years

Time goes by ridiculously fast.  It was five years ago today that Dad died.  5 years.  That's 1,827 days that we haven't been graced by his physical presence in our lives.  We have all found ways to continue on with our own lives but have never for a second forgotten about him and will forever be thankful for the time we had to spend with this wonderful and awesome man.  I love you Dad.

State High School Soccer Tournament

The SSP girls soccer team made it to the State Tournament!  Careline and I braved the cold night last night to watch the girls play their first game of the tournament...a 1-0 victory.  If they can pull off just two more wins they will be State Champions.  Good Luck Packers (and especially Asia...our Summer Nanny!)

Silly Girl

Adeline has hundreds of toys to choose from in the garage on nice days when we're outside playing, but she always goes for the same thing...an old car seat.  Oddly enough she loves to be buckled in and just contently hangs out strapped in to her car seat.  Such a silly little girl.

I thought just old men went with the comb-over look...but apparently 2 year girls do sometimes as well.

Uh oh...where did the baby go?!
