Mom, Paige, Taylor and I spent 3 days in Chicago.

We got tickets to go to The Oprah Show, and made a fun weekend out of it!

Shelby Mustang we saw walking to lunch after Oprah.

We ate the best pizza at Gino's Pizzeria.

Many of the skyscrapers in Downtown Chicago had pink lights
lit up or decorations for Breast Cancer awareness month.



I'm as big as the sky scrapers!!

In the sears tower observation deck.

They now have clear boxes yo u can step out into from the top floor and see

down the hundreds of levels. Very scary!!

The Famous "Bean"

Possible Future brother for Herbie!

Go Vikings!! (Notice Herbie's shirt too)

New Christmas ornament for 2010

With our new couch, we had trouble finding a spot

for our tree.

My Christmas present from Mike (that he got me early and let me open)

A BOOK NOOK!!!

I love it so much and recommend everyone get one.

We hung lights this year, just a few though.

Maybe next year we will do windows and door??

(If Mike is not so crabby!)

Not much snow here, in fact while most of MN had a blizzard this weekend,

Durant got 3 hrs of rain, followed by a dusting of snow.

We now have less snow, but way too much ice.

Craig, Ann, Becca and Alison came to visit in October.

They went to Wildcat Den State Park with us. It was a beautiful day.

Herbie had fun too :)

Wildcat Football. Mike's 1st season coaching football.

As an assistant, he helped coach the kids to state!!!

1st Day of School!!
