What The...

Spring has been nice. A few cold days, but I've been wearing shorts a lot of the time and have even gotten sun burned from being outside on one occasion. Well, you can imagine my surprise when I walked outside to go to church this morning and saw this...



I kept thinking "c'mon Mike, wake up from this nightmare so you're not late for church!" Nope. Didn't happen. It's still snowing 8 hours later and I was late to church.

A Wonderful Day.....

Ok, so I am trying to figure out this blogging stuff and found this picture and decided to try and post it as I have been wanting to post some pics and stuff about our family visiting us last Thanksgiving and Christmas. So please forgive this being out of chronological order. It takes us awhile to catch on to this technology stuff. This picture was taken Friday, December 28. We went into Berkeley to Anthropologies and to the Crate and Barrell Outlet, just to look around. We then went into San Francisco and had a late lunch at the Cheesecake Factory. It was very cold, but very Christmasy at Union Square. This was taken there as we headed back to our car. We then drove down Lombard Street, which Mike has been wanting to do. Afterwards we went and spent some time shopping in Chinatown, which was really a blast. In spite of cold and somewhat rainy weather, we had a terrific time with M&M and appreciated them being here with us old folks. We can't wait to have them and their new baby with us this summer!! Thanks M&M, we love you!

It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's Superman! I found this great picture of superman flying high above the city and I just wanted to share it with everyone. He looks like he just finished saving the world!

Sugar and Spice and Stitches

Just in time for Christmas, Annabelle has added a few stitches and an enlarged lower lip to her beautiful smile. She did not consult us on this first, but I guess she wanted to be original for the Christmas picture on Saturday. :) She ended up with 5 stitches between the inside and outside of her lip and was very brave as the doctor fixed it up for her. She cried with the first stitch but held still and was quiet the rest of the time.

Batman or Brady?

So I saw this article in the newspaper about how Batman saved Gotham City again, and the closer I looked, the more I noticed how much Batman looks like Brady. Maybe it's just a coincidence, but it sure has me wondering if my nephews really are super heroes.

Christmas Party

I have to admit that I did not try and recreate the victory dance at the company Christmas Party. (I am sure it was formally called a holiday party, but we all know it is a Christmas Party). As my first attempt at blogging, here is proof that I did show up at the party. The site is awesome, thanks Mike!
