Grandpa Henry has a birthday every year 🙂 We went over to his house to celebrate with him. With COVID hopefully winding down, we were starting to meet together again. Its been too long since we’ve shared laughes like this! Mark did his best to climb a tree, but there aren’t many lower branches to … Continue reading “Grandpa Henry’s Birthday – 3/6/2022”
It seems like all we do when its cold is hang out with our cats. What did we do before cats? Sonora went dress shopping. I took Danelle for a walk and she modeled this lovely bouy. Hogan Haake
Danelle continues to poke fun of me for my old man eye sight. I need more like than I used to for reading in bed. I’ve taken to putting a light on my chin to face the book. I put the book upside down for the photo, its semi-staged. Always cat photos! Ohh look, a … Continue reading “January 2022”
Fults Prairie is a wonderful place to hike that is approximately 90 minutes from our house in Illinois. Its located near the Mississippi river, but is up on the bluff area. Its been around 10 years since we were last here. Danelle and I wanted to get out of the house and the kids were … Continue reading “Fults Prairie Hike – 2/12/2022”
Sonora is taking an athletic training class. Part of that class is learning how to wrap an athlete’s foot for added strength. The only way to get better at something is to practice. So she comes home at night and wraps Danelle’s foot. She says mine smell to bad to practice on. Hogan Haake

We packed up and headed to Kansas City for Christmas this year. We’ve gotten worse at planning, but my parents didn’t mind the last minute surprise. I texted my dad this photo right before we came in the front door. Did I mention the weather seemed extra warm? As an added bonus, Herman came in … Continue reading “Christmas in Kansas City – 12/25/2021”
The kids played in the Christmas concert this evening. Sonora with her violin. Corvin with the bass and blue mask in the back. And finally the video of the concert. Hogan Haake
Like nearly every month, we spend way too much time with our cats. Of course, this photo of me with Brawndo is staged. Brawndo and Coatrack playing in the kitchen. I’m not sure if he’s practicing playing dead, or just trying to block the heat vent. Danelle and I took a wonderful walk on a … Continue reading “November 2021”
