Husband Hunkorama of the Century Tag!


Well...my wonderful sister-in-law Kelli was tagged with this great tag, she tags me for everything but forgot this one. HUMMM... I wonder why? Could it be that I never do the tags :(. Sorry Kelli, I do have good intention to do them but never get around to it. Anyway, I thought this was so cute I wanted to butt in on this one. What a great tag! So here goes!

Twins Game



We went to a Twins game a couple of weeks ago, what a great time! As you can see from some of the pictures it wasn't a sell out game, so we pretty much sat where we wanted to. Max did so well, he clapped when everyone else did and even tried to sing at the 7 inning stretch. I love living in a state where all three pro sports are represented, so far we have made it to a few Twins games and one Timber Wolves game (they were playing the Jazz :)) Anyway, the only team we need to see play in the Metro Dome is the Vikings. Rory says when they get a little better he will grace them with his presents ;).

Labor Day 2008






Who's that sexy guy on the jet ski? That's right...its Rory, showing off on Labor Day! Parker, Rory, and Papa played on the lake for most of the holiday weekend. It was really hot, but unfortunately really windy, we tried to take the jet boat out a couple of times but we got tossed around like rag dolls. That didn't matter... we still had an incredible time. What a great way to close out the summer.
