Owen's manwich

Owen made his own PBJ while out fishing with Emma, Sean, and Dadi in our neighborhood. In the background is Prior Lake. I think we've captured the essence of Owen here....

Stitches

A day in the life.... One for the "at least it was Saturday" files. Sean slipped on the front stairs and banged the back of his head on the corner of the wall. So our day was spent at the emergency room, where Sean received five stitches and John took Emma and Owen exploring in the tunnels of Childrens'. Fortunately, the ER did a nice job sewing him up, and Sean is no worse for wear, it seems.

Kids frolicking by the Minnesota River

Out walking, March 3oth. The next morning, it was snowing hard, putting about half a
a foot of heavy wet stuff down! Out like a lamb, indeed...

Pizza making

We had the kids make their own pizzas the other night. It was a fun (if flour-y) time, and they had no complaints about ingredients, since they chose them themselves. Owen was proud of his long pizza, while Emma went for the traditional round shape. Unfortunately, when she lifted the pizza up for the camera, the melted cheese followed gravity down. The good news is that the reconstructed pizza (with chunks of ham on it!) still tasted good.

Snow!

With the arrival of December in the Twin Cities has also come the arrival of snow! It started snowing this morning, and by afternoon there was about 6 inches Much of the day was cold and windy (in the teens), but the kids couldn't resist heading out for a little while to experience the white stuff.
