Senior Benefit

Sunset Friday night

The Senior Benefit theme was a You Tube variety show. Here a group of the senior guys were singing Auld Lang Syne with a little bit of beat box - quite good.

"The Men in Pink present Frying Stripples" - wish you could see them all flopping around

Jervon goes to the Dog House for buying his wife a vaccuum for their anniversary

The Senior class singing together at the end

Meesha

Toby's best Maplewood friend is Meesha, the history teacher's husky.

Can't wait to see him in the snow!

Toby prepares for winter

Toby modeling his new sweater for you while Dad entices him with a treat. He actually seems to like this sweater and almost willingly puts it on. I think that's a sign that he's cold.

He's also been spending more time in his bed than laying on the floor - another sign the weather is changing. Muttley is still his favorite toy.

For some reason I really like this picture I took from inside a silo at the farm we visited. I like the patterns you can see. The light and shadow and the quietness made it a neat place to just stand and look up.

Minnehaha Falls

Minnehaha Park is right in downtown Minneapolis. Hollie and I did a bit of exploring there and I can't wait to go back again! There are lots of great trails to walk on and bike, a dog park, beautiful falls, and views of the Mississippi River.
