Corvin has been on the University of Wisconsin, La Crosse triathlon club team all four years of college now. He has wanted to go to the national championships but it has never been a convenient location. As a club, there isn’t much funding which also makes this challenging. This year it was held in Gulfport, … Continue reading “USA Triathlon Collegiate Club Nationals – 3/28/2026”
Spring break started out with a small logistics problem. The hybrid battery on Corvin’s car died. The car would drive, but the dash was lit up with about every warning light it has. It was under warranty, but they would not honor the warranty unless the car was in St. Louis. Ultimately, we rented a … Continue reading “Spring Break – 3/13/2026”
Cold months generally have us indoors. This may be reflected by the number of photos we took of the cats. While Sonora was home, we replaced the headlights on her car. It was a bit involved taking several things apart to get to it, but Sonora was up for the challenge. Hogan Haake
We celebrate any time Corvin makes it home to St. Louis after being away at college. With him being 22, going to bars is old hat. However, going with your parents is different. We went to Blackthorn Pub for some beer and pizza. Its very thick pizza. It seems like half the photos are of … Continue reading “Corvin’s Home – 12/25/2026”
We took lots of cat photos this month. Coatrack looking exhausted is my favorite. We also continued our paddle training. We had a trip to Minnesota to start our team out. We also tested out the sleeping arrangements in the boat during our weekly 5k race. We each took a turn for about 200 yards. … Continue reading “June – 2025”
It was a pretty chill month. This might come as a shock, but the cats were entertaining. Gimli playing in a bag of bags. Danelle purchased two fruit trees. I think a key lime and a lemon tree. Here is her little lemon supported on a cup so the tree doesn’t fall over from the … Continue reading “November – 2024”
This month, I guess I went a little crazy. Normal for me, is a unicycle ride on a local trail. And then, I’m at work with my new kitty unicorn headphones jamming out. Then Danelle caught me test driving a new car. Needless to say, she wouldn’t let me get it 🙁 Then one weekend … Continue reading “August 2024”
We were thrilled to have Corvin home for winter break. With it being his second year of college and not having Coty around, the time with him was more precious. He didn’t waste any time getting cozy. It also appears the cats missed him too! Henry and Carol got in on the cat love as … Continue reading “December – 2023”
It wouldn’t be a good month without at least one cat photo. Coatrack is our family favorite and here is Sonora hanging out with him. I got an action shot of Dylan at the office. He left the company for another opportunity, but left his mark! I was able to see Kiersten and her daughter … Continue reading “August – 2023”
One season that never goes out is cat season. Sonora with her track top on with Coatrack. Crazy hair, or just woke up? Coty is heading out. Gimli, our new cat. Our family is back at full strength. Corvin came home from college. Hogan Haake
