Maren turns 15
Mariah is an excellent little softball player. It was great seeing her in action.
Trace and Mitchell at the game
Chase makes sure the ump gets it right.
My "2-year-old with the big ice cream cone" picture was a failure. I need Linda. That sherbet melted too fast.
Alec at Kindergarten
Alec's class
One of Alec's classic poses

Making sugar cookies with Aunt Tawny
Mmmm... Which one will he pick?
A lovely Thanksgiving table

Our gingerbread house tradition
This house turned out to be one of the better ones we've done, believe it or not.

Annalisa playing in the snow for the first time- not sure how much she liked it...
A modest little snowman. Maybe we'll have more snow next year.
The family at Cahokia
St. Louis in the background
Tara and I are on one of the mounds at Cahokia. The headphones were for our audio tour. It was an interesting outing.

The pinewood derby is not one of my favorite things. This one ended with tears and disappointment.
I got to see Mitt Romney at a rally in St. Louis.
At the Purina Farms dog show
Sharing a little soda. Go, go, go!
Warming up for the recital
Adam and Trevor nailed "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" at the recital. (for the first time- we were lucky) One of the seniors sang along.

Beautiful sisters, inside and out
I love living so close to them.
Me and my little girl
Nonny's flowers
Trevor's 10th birthday
I'm leaving cake decorating to April. Those Legos I made are hideous. At least they tasted good.
Grandad making a fire, to the delight of the children and consternation of the neighbors. (He did have a permit.)
