Another photo from Bob's Farm on Friday

On Friday we had a picnic at Bob's Farm.  The reason we went to Bob's was so that I (Adam) could get in a little bit of turkey scouting.  After seeing this photo, I can't help but think it looks like I'm walking into the woods with a bunch of hobbits in tow.

New Glasses

Christopher and I both got new glasses recently. I think my choice of eye ware was influenced by his choice of style.

Getting ready

 Annette is getting Clara ready for her first soccer practice. This should be interesting.




Clara and her dancing

We think Clara has a distinct resemblance in her dancing to Elaine on Seinfeld. Agree?

Valentines Day Cards

Clara writes her name while Annette writes out the name of the student receiving the valentine. Comprise at its purest form.

Puzzle anyone?

An 1,100 piece puzzle is going to take a long time in this household.

Clara's Club

Apparently Christopher and Clara have decided to have a 'big kid' corner in the basement. This is the scene I found when I went downstairs tonight to put them to bed. Today was Clara's 6th birthday.

Lunch Dates

I had a funeral visitation today at St. Paul's so I decided to drop in on my kids for lunch. Since I didn't have any cash, Clara offered to buy. It made me wonder what life is going to look like whenever she buys my lunch again sometime in the distant future. 

After a little bit of floor time in Kindergarten recess, I caught up with Christopher. He was just going through the lunch line at the time.

Books

It seems that not everyone is intently listening to the book Annette is reading.

Marshmallow House

A visit with Babo

Last week I was in downtown Florence and found myself with some extra time so I dropped in on Babo (Grandma).  We had a nice visit and I was glad she recognized me with the beard on my face.  We talked about many of our usual topics such as the number of children I have, the price for catholic schools and then back to the number of children I have.  It was a very nice visit and I enjoy spending time with her. -- Adam
