Yesterday, the girls & I all got new pillows!  So we slept like babies last night.  Nate was wondering why he didn’t get one, but he never complains about his pillow, so I thought his was good to go.  Turns out, he could use a new one as well.  I guess I’ll we’ll have to [...]

 
Today we met my brother, Jim, for lunch at Cassetta’s down in St. Paul.  This is a great Italian restaurant that makes terrific pizza that you can purchase by the slice.  And their slices take up your whole plate!  Such cheesy goodness in your mouth.  We needed to meet up with my brother because Megan needed [...]

Today was in “iffy” looking day out but we decided to head over to the pool anyway.  It was very warm & humid, so the water felt good.  At one point, a big black cloud came over and sprinkled us with a tiny shower that lasted a couple of minutes and actually cooled us off.  [...]

Today, the girls & I had lunch with my sister, Terry and my mom (Grandma to them).  She is leaving tomorrow to head back to Arizona.  We met out in Eagan at a restaurant called, Granite City Food & Brewery.  It’s become one of my favorite places to just hang out and visit.   We had a [...]

I got a call from my friend and co-worker this evening, asking if I’d like to go with her to the Burnsville Concert in the Park tonight.  There was a New Orleans Jazz Band playing and she knew one of the guys playing in the band.  They were called, The Jack Brass Band.  It was [...]

Tonight, Nate & I taught the girls how to play Scrabble.  It was a lot of fun and they enjoyed it.  It was a bit confusing to them at first, but they got the hang of it.  Megan had a bit of trouble understanding that you couldn’t just put a word down anywhere you’d like.  [...]

It was a cold, cloudy day today with a high of only 60 degrees.  A great day to hit the mall, at least that’s what Megan and her friend Noelle thought.  The girls wanted to go shopping and just hang out, but I’m not ready to let an eleven year old girl walk around the [...]

Last night I went out with my two BG’s (best girlfriends) and as usual, we talk about some funny stuff.  Somehow, we were talking about the Bee Gee’s and we could only remember two of them.  Barry & Andy.  Terry kept saying that two of them were twins and Dawn and I were telling her that we [...]

What a nice day I had today.  It started out with a walk around the pond with Kelly & Jazz.  It was a cool, 64 degree morning which felt more like September rather than July.  But we loved it!   When we returned, it was time to water the plants.  It’s been so dry here, that [...]

Today, Kelly & I were beach bums.  We called a friend of mine and she & her daughter joined us for a relaxing day at Cleary Lake in Prior Lake.   We haven’t had very much rain here, so the beach was very shallow which meant lots of seaweed.  The girls didn’t care for that too [...]
