October

OK, so I am a crappy blogger. Still. I don't know why... I just don't have much drive to sit down and do this. But, my November resolution is to sit my big butt down once a month and relflect on the going-ons of Anne, Chris, Jerod, & Elise.
So... October in a nutshell: MEA trip to Arizona, Swine '09 hits 5624 Bernard Place, Elise gets to visit the ER for chest x-ray, lumbar puncture, ambulance ride, and overnight stay at the U of M children's hospital; Halloween, Twin Cities 10 Mile, Team Ortho Monster Dash, hmm... I'm sure there's more, but those were the highlights.


Elise with her Marvelous Me Poster (the last one I ever have to make!!)



A beautiful November sunrise outside our front door


The Birthday Bash (finally-- had to be postponed due to the hospital stay)


I did mini cupcakes because this was two days after Halloween and everyone was sugared up. This will NOT gain my kids any popularity points.



Jerod the Bandit





Finding the geocache


I'm pretty sure this is where I was meant to live.




Elise love to have her picture taken in a tree.

The Holt family at the Grand Canyon.

First night in Phoenix after a long day

Elise ready for... something

First snow of the year= a good time to leave for AZ

After the twins last game in the 'dome. Happy boys!


Completion of the 10 mile. Me and my two biggest fans.

The kids each ran a half mile. Chris did a 5k.

It was cold!



At Minnetonka Orchards


This picture isn't added because I love it, because I really don't, but there's very few pictures of the two of us.
