We went to Kansas City for Christmas. We decided to take our time coming into town. We left St. Louis on Friday morning and took a leisurely drive out US Highway 50 stopping in Jefferson City. First stop was the river. With almost no complaints, Corvin and Sonora put their coats on and walked down … Continue reading “Christmas in Kansas City – 12/22/2017”
Danelle needed to go out and get data from her stream sites. It was a Sunday and I had time to go with her. So we went out and I got a glimpse of what her research looks like.

We met college friends at Josh and Jen’s house for an annual get together. Its traditionally been at Laura’s house, but we’re making due.

We started Friday night ripping out all of the existing carpet in her room. Then we had to … Continue reading “Sonora’s New Floor – 12/2/2017”
There were lots of photos of Coatrack this month. I’ll only make you look at one 🙂 There were some abnormally warm days and I ended up in a sleeveless shirt after a walk with the family. Danelle deemed it “No Sleeve November”. And of course, lots of unicycle riding! Hogan Haake
Sonora had another orchestra performance. I was able to record most of it on my phone. Danelle’s parents came out to see it. Hogan Haake
Hannah likes the St.Louis Blues and wants to see them in person. So we got tickets so she could see a game in person. As an added bonus, my mom came in town with her. I wasn’t going to let mom miss a good time, so we had lots of parallel plans to keep us … Continue reading “Mom and Hannah in STL – 11/4/2017”
At Corvin’s soccer game, the girls, Sonora, Danelle, and Carol, all used umbrellas to keep out of the rain. Tiko, our cat died this month. He was with us for about 15 years and will be missed. We ended up with a new kitten the same month. Petra doesn’t get along with him unless they … Continue reading “October – 2017”
