Lake Minnetonka Half Marathon

 May 3 was an absolutely perfect day to run our first half marathon at Lake Minnetonka.  We enjoyed a beautiful route winding around the lakes and fabulous homes.

The port-a-potty lines before the race always make me laugh

Grandparents Day 2015

 Grandparents Day at Calvin is so very much fun for the kids.  They love to show off their school and the fun things they do each day with the Grandparents.  This year was the first year that we had all three come to school!

Seussical the Musical

 Hailey had the privilege to be cast in the Middle School musical as a jungle animal in this year's production of Seussical the Musical!  She learned a ton about what it takes to pull together a production in just two short months.

Boys….

 The neighbors are renovating their bathroom and somehow the toilet ended up in our yard, but it is the perfect place to put someone in a "time out".

 Mike surprised Carter at school and took him to a Twins game for the afternoon; a Ferris Bueller type day:) 

 The Wild are in the play-offs!

The bird never saw him coming……..
